    Default Upper Potomac River

    Hello, I'm new to this forum and getting back into boats. Is there still any dragboat action on the Upper Potomac? Years ago both Seneca and Damn 4 were popular.

    Dam4 and above is some nice water (about10 miles), but just full of skiboats on the weekend. During the week (i hear) is pretty nice. There are some fast boats up there. I dont know about seneca. I havent been there in 5 years, where the scene was much reduced from what i heard it was.

    where are you located?

    I live just west of Frederick near Myersville. I am hoping to pick up another boat soon. Either a V-drive or jet. The reason I posted is I wanted to make sure the river cops haven't shut down all the fun

    Default dam 4

    Mike and Ray from Performance Boats are always there. Ray has a house and ramp and always welcomes the jet boat guys. They were talking about having a get-together for everybody before the seasons done. I will be at dam 4 sunday still some jets and hydros everybody hangs out up-river in the shallows. Its a good time everybody ties up floats in the water and drinks plenty of adult beverages. dnr has been really cool I dont even run my baffles and as long as your not being a total squirrell you will be fine. I was there last sat and never the po po all day. I will have my 19 daytona finished for next weekend so com on up the waters just fine if ya know what I mean $.

    Donnie, you should have seen the look on their faces when you flew that big pig by 'em...
