For someone with a new rig and very underpowered stay off of Lake Erie. This weekend isn't the time to launch anywhere as a novice. Last weekend there was a 10 boat line up at Port Burwell and Bruce. Put your boat in at the Port Dover marina and fish the Lynn River, better yet pick a small body of water like Jordan Harbor for your first time with that rig. I don't want to sound harsh but you have no business going into Long Point bay without experience on the bay and knowing what your boat can do. You are asking for a disaster with that small underpowered boat.
Heck if you don't know how fast or slow it will be tells me you have never been on the water with it. You don't know if it will hold water, as well you don't know how the motor runs. You really want to get someone upset ask to have you towed in after they have been waiting for opening all winter, forget about launching on Erie, please, until you know the area and your vessel, please.
