Yup... $10 to launch a boat ! Been there 3 times since the machine has
been put in. Its worth every penny of it !!! I would love to go to
some other local lakes in the Edmt. area but there is no way I would
try to launch my boat in the Mud and weeds. I love to fish but without
a dock to tie up ,park your truck and get in ..... its just a pain in the arse.
You couldn't possibly ask for a better launch anywhere. Pavement up
to the parking lot / cement pads to back into / good docks / washrooms
always open and clean /a car wash 1/2 block away and 12 flavours of
ice cream at the local burger joint. Thats a deal for $10 .

Someone has to pay for it.... might as well be the users !!

I think thats a great idea they have to be maintained so why not let them pay for them selves

Ten dollars is reasonable. There is a machine at Wizard, and i'ts $20.00 with a boat. Oh but there is a porta potty.

Maybe someone should start a valet service for launching boats!!! Include it as part of the $10 maybe... Get in your boat, let them launch you and they park the truck and trailer... Started writing this as somewhat of a joke, but kinda think it wouldn't be that bad of an idea.... Might help reduce the amount of "those people" who take 25 min trying to back up their trailers.... Winning!

Sorry, i would not pay 10 dollers to park at Wabamun, what ever happened to parking for free :) back when i first moved to Edmonton a few years back parking was free in many areas.

Yeah it was a zoo on Sunday. Finally just dropped buddy off at the dock and met him at the sailing club. Zero line out in seconds.
