Sneaky's is a dump. Place fell apart then the dock failed. No more lake access and same lousy music scene.
The new condos at Towerbay have ruined a nice little ramp area.

Almost made me spit coffee all over my keyboard!

Agree fellas, this boat needed a much bigger 3 axle trailer.

I have not been to Sneaky Pete's in years. My buddy has a slip in Eagle Point so we cruise by the ramp on the way out to fish.

To me it looks like one of those deals where someone was told "if you'll come get this boat, you can have it "of course there is no trailer" they were probably tired of paying slip fees on it. The old boat would probably make a real neat restoration project.

Or it was in one of the boat houses and started sinking because the electricity turned off from the flood. It was full of water and wasn't coming out on a trailer anyway.

The boat is twice the lenght of trailer. I think some of the time people must wake up and say lets see what stupid thing we can do today.

It is sitting beached by the ramp now tied up. The city tagged it.

Definitely nowhere near enough trailer, for that boat.

Well that stinks to hear. Pete's used to be a pretty cool place.
Hung out there many of times after a full day on the water.

Saw that Monday morning. Wondered when over the weekend they did it. I guess it was not the city.
