Boats allowed on Lake Springfield include canoes, motorboats,
pontoons, rowboats and sailboats. Personal watercraft, such as jet skis,
are also allowed. Boats and craft of any kind with mast heights of more
than 35 feet may be used, kept or stored only on the
central basin and central basin marginal land. Boating is not permitted in the vicinity of Spaulding
Dam. A line of "no boat" buoys extending eastward from the shoreline at
Dallman Power Plant to the opposite bank places this area off limits to
boats.
All boats and other types of watercraft propelled, kept or used on
the lake's reservoir, or stored or kept on the marginal land, must be
registered and licensed in accordance with City of Springfield and State
of Illinois requirements.
