Tips for Cussewago
- At Cussewago, have the boat fully rigged before it's your turn on the ramp.
- Back in only until the stern floats, and set the parking brake before anyone gets out.
- Winch the boat on when you leave Cussewago, because prop wash from power loading undermines the concrete.
- Clean, drain and dry your boat and trailer before you leave Cussewago, so invasive mussels and plants don't travel to the next lake.
