Sadly, the Lanark Village Mart is closing. The ramp is owned by the Lanark Village Boat club and will remain open for launching. You will still be able to launch for $10.00 or purchase an annual launch pass. Mike and the store will be missed.

It has been making the rounds on several websites today. I heard it from a very reliable source.

Sad to hear this. Mike has always been a great guy to me. Even the few times he sold me soggy-azz LY's that fell apart on the way to the grouper. He always made good on them the next time out though :thumbup: I know he has struggled for a while now which is why I ALWAYS bought my bait, tackle & 3 hour old coffee from him. I wish him the best.....

I hate to hear that for him :thumbdown: :thumbdown: But you would think with one of the highest gas prices around there and at ten dollars a pop to launch a boat it would bring pleanty of buisness,,,, :smt009
