Lake Allatoona
Sailing on lake allatoona.
Plenty of lakefaring men and women love sailing on Lake Allatoona. A few are also seafaring!
If you are a sailor and you’ve been on land too long, your heart will drive you to sing, “ Sailing, sailing over the bounding main! ” If you’re not a sailor, having solid soil beneath your feet suits you just fine … and you probably wonder what the heck “over the bounding main” means. If your captain has been in the grog and a plank is dangling off the deck, it’s better not to ask until you come back to shore.
If you do have questions about sailing on Lake Allatoona, here are some links that will lead you to clear sailing and safe harbors.
