[quote=cpt_mango]New to the forum, I'm in Milwaukee.

I sail from the boat ramp at south shore park, on lake Michigan.  Plenty of staging, and the boat ramp is on the beach, no problems. it's a few bucks to launch here. 
There's a good 1.5 mile long by .25 mile wide area behind the break wall to reach south along, shoreline mostly beaches.    No different then sailing on a small lake.  I take out my SC15 out the wall in the big lake in waves 1.5 foot or less.

You could also reach north through the channel behind the break wall (or get a tow) in front of SSYC, past the ferry dock, and be in the north breakwall, a much larger area.

I've sailed koshkonog.  I launched here https://goo.gl/maps/at26nfYu3TZYADyw7

Very narrow, and a short wade to the beach.

A much better place would be here https://goo.gl/maps/1f8ukftNk2TLgdAy7  but there is a power line in the way.  You'd have to launch, beach, and then step.

There's an actual cat beach on lake mendota.

Thanks for the tip on lake geneva, I hadn't considered it.[/quote]
