Found it last week. My family has had a place on LM for about 40 years. Our house is near the cliffs and I keep my boat at Rabbit Branch. I ski year round. I actually skied more in January and February than I did in March and April. This might actually be the first year I'm not able to do that due to the water level being so low.
Even though I've been hanging out at LM for all these years, I've still learned a few new things reading this forum. Perhaps I can return the favor although my perspective may be somewhat limited.

I learn new things from the members all the time. I have a couple of boats at Rabbit Branch, and have a place there too. We're usually there on weekends, but will be gone until Labor Day weekend. If you're there then, call me on my cell phone 369-8957. I'll come down to the marina & meet you. It never hurts to know people on the water!

Welcome
Even though We have only been at LM for about a year now we always are looking to find out something we did not know and this forum has been pretty good in sharing info.
When I first found it last year no one had been on it in some time and now there are 6-10 people that post regularly and a few that just read.
We are still going to the lake at least until the race and maybe we will run into you guys sometime.

John,
Thanks. If I'm there I'll give you a call. Not real big on holiday weekends though. Too much traffic! Only thing you can do is tube. But I'm wondering how it's gonna be if the water gets any lower. It's at 460 now. I could stand up at the no wake buoy at the entrance to the marina in January and it was at about 460.
I've got to head back to the marina tomorrow or Wednesday and get my boat out. I left it at the gas dock 'cause it's been in the water since July 1st and has all sorts of groddoo on the hull. I didn't want to take it out of the water and let all that junk dry. I need a good hull cleaner. Last time I used Glissen Hull Magic (great stuff but can't find any). Happen to have any suggestions?
Steve,
I think I saw you a couple of times over the weekend. Blue wakeboard boat? Lots of wakeboards on the tower? Drifted by our house a couple of times...the current was really moving! I sit on our deck and watch all the boats wondering who all these new people are....Been tempted to get a rifle and pick off a few of the really obnoxious ones...like the cigarette boats that thought it was a good idea to race on a busy Saturday. (Honey, get the grenade launcher. I hear 'em coming!)
Sorry. I get carried away sometimes.

It is very possible that it was us but there is another blue wakeboard boat that I have been seeing the past few weeks. This weekend there were 4 boats tied together and we circled them a few times but never tied on.
So how close to the cliffs are you? I know if the fast boats were bothering you then you have to be just past the cliffs going away from Lincoln Harbor.

We're down river from the cliffs on the Talladega side. We're the first house that isn't hanging off the side of the hill.

Speaking of hanging off the side, has anyone seen the 4 wheeler hanging off the bank , its on the Talledega side right down below the cliffs.It looks like someone took a wild ride. Im not sure how they will get it back out, its straight up.

I was out skiing with my neighbor and he stopped near it and said See that mule over there? Not being terribly fluent in Talladegese I was looking all over for a 4 legged critter with big ears. My neighbors live there full time and love to make fun of us city people (they think we talk funny). I guess a mule is a Talladega escalator. Looks like it broke down spectacularly.

I saw it too but didn't think that much of it because I had a 4 wheeler down the bank back during the winter months. I was using it to pull some old trees and debris out of the water to burn back in the day when we could.
BTW, welcome to the board. We're kinda neighbors. I live about the same distance north of Lincoln Harbor. About half a mile south of the bridge.
Peace,
