I have heard that Webster Lake is pretty nice up in Webster, Mass. I have never been there myself though. I have thought about trying it out. Check here for some information: http://www.websterlakeassociation.com/

Webster Lake would be the biggest to take a 19ft bowrider. It depends where you live. Central mass has alot of lakes.....Webster, Wallum, Big Allum, South Pond,Quabog Pond, Lashway Lake.
All the ones mentioned have excellent ramps.

Here is a great resource...some of the maps are VERY basic...but make sure you look at page 2 (when available) to find info on fish surveys done etc.

I like Wallum for watersports...75' deep means that I dont have to worry about the boat or kids hitting something (rock, tree stump etc). The only "downside" to Wallum is that it doesn't have a dock..so expect to get wet while launching.

Webster is a good size lake, but bring an extra prop. Wallum is on the smaller side, but good for water skiing/tubing. Nice and deep too. Take a look at Webster Lake from Google Earth, and you'll see what I mean.
