Boating on Leech Lake
Leech is a great lake for boating because Walker Bay and the "big lake" have few shallow water hazards.  However, some bays of the lake and the narrows between Walker Bay and the big lake are shallow (about 5' when water levels are good, sometimes 4' or less.)  Our harbor can usually accommodate boats with up to a 4' 6"' draft.  The recommended draft on Leech Lake is 4' 6" or less.  Boats drafting more than 4' 6" will occasionally have difficulties in the narrows and in Shores harbor.

All docks at Shores have 30-amp shore power, and a water faucet.  Dock rental includes use of the ramp, gyn pole, pump-out facility, full kitchen, shower facilities, and the swimming beach.  For power boats, some of Shores docks are covered.   Shores monitors VHF channel 18.

Regarding types of watercraft or horsepower, Leech Lake has no restrictions.

About our Yacht Club
