Here's all I could find online.

I'd call the SC law enforcement folks to be sure, but I feel like you should be ok by having a boat with a gas motor on it (just not running it).

When I saw Monticello, I was confused as I've had my boat there before and lots of fast, big HP, gas powered boats were there. I never knew the upper corner was a separate recreation lake?

thanks Chris -- yes there is 2 lakes there - hwy 99 runs across the dam between the 2 of um. I fished there many years ago but could only fish on Wednesday and Saturdays and I had a gas motor but never cranked it and nobody said anything about it. I've heard since then its open for fishin every day I didn't want to go down there and get a ticket for something I didn't know about but from what you found nothing has changed since about 1986 lol.
thanks again for your help. let me know when the striper bite gets good and ill try to make the journey down and help you dissolve the population a little lol
thanks again my friend - hope to get to see you soon Robert. AKA as Uncle Remus
