Where are you launching from and when?

[STV_Keith]

I know some people are launching at Willow Beach, others at Cottonwood Cover and some others at Katherines.

Greg and I and whoever else wants to meet up, will be meeting Saturday morning at 7:30 at the Fiesta hotel at I-595 and Lake Mead Dr. We will leave from there and drive to Willow Beach. We plan to be in the water by around 9am.

Post where you will be meeting/launching and when so we can all have an idea.

Greg, what's the final word about the photographer? When is he arriving and who is he riding with?

[BADFISH II]

No word yet, I'm waiting to hear back. I'm starting a roll call thread

[Beach Bum]

I'll meet with you at the Fiesta at 7:30 also!!

[RUNNIN A FEVER]

We'll be heading out of Cottonwood around 8 ish. Hopefully some members will be there or outside the 5MPH zone to show us the cove to be in.

[kc0000]

We will be launching from Katherine's....

Meeting anyone who wants to carpool or caravan at the "no-wake" markers at 8:30 on Saturday morning.

KC

[Essex502]

Katherine no wake zone at 8:30.

[RiverLife]

Runnin', and Thor (and whoever else) my buddies and I are planning on launching Saturday morning at Cottonwood at about 8:30 or 9. Then cruising down to the spot. You are more than welcome to come with us. You'll see the big dogs, then my piss-ant right in the middle http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif We'll look/ wait for you. My girlfriend and I are going to eat breakfast in the cafe at 8 before we launch.

Greg, Keith and the rest of the "Willow Launch Gang", you might as well just go straight to the cove instead of going to Cottonwood then backtracking to the spot. We'll be there at about 9:30 or 10 hanging out.

This is a map of Mojave (http://www.riverlakes.com/maps,_lake_mohave.htm) that has some GPS coordinates.

RL-Kurt and I will be launching there also, so wait up for us. We are planning on being on the water around that time.

[Havasu Dreamin]

8:30 with Essex502 and kc0000 at Katherines.

[RUNNIN A FEVER]

Riverlife - that sounds like a plan. I'm glad at least one of my relatives is going to be there (Fountain). I was looking for some other deeper draft boats to scout the way.

Later.

[RUNNIN A FEVER]

PS: Riverlife - are you guys comming from CA. You go right past my hous (Cajon Pass) do you want to canavan up there?

Let me know.

[RiverLife]

Fever, yeah, all of my buddies have V bottoms in the 30' range, you'll have plenty of company, however Mojave is very deep with no obstacles so you can haul ass wide open all day long, nothing to worry about. Also, no problem on the caravan thing. My girlfriend and I are going to leave Orange County at about 5 pm on Friday so we'll be in Victorville/ Hesparia about 6-6:30. I'm not sure when my other buddies are leaving, either Thurdsay night, or very early Saturday morning. Let me know what your plans are. We could always meet at the In-n-Out off Lenwood (the outlet malls) for dinner at about 7-7:30 and go from there?

[RUNNIN A FEVER]

Riverlife - where are you going to stay on Friday night? I was thinking of just driving up on Sat Morn. It's only about 2.5 hrs (best guess).

[Rude]

i plan on hooking up with keith and greg at the fiesta and following them when and wherever they decide to launch from and cruise to from there. i'm going to be a shadow all day!

[RiverLife]

Fever, I've got a place at Cottonwood in the trailer village. We're getting there Friday night and leaving Monday night.

[THOR]

RL,
2 things,
Any trailers for rent that weekend?

I will be down on the ramp around 8:30 with you brother. 24' Eliminator black/teal

I have never been able to make it from OC area to Victorville area in 1 1/2 hrs on a Friday night especially leaving at 5 pm. Everytime I have left at that time it has taken me at least 2 1/2 hrs. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/insane.gif Come on, man, what's your secret? Give it up. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Sorry, couldn't let that one slide by. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

RL-Kurt and I have been tossing around the idea of leaving on Friday afternoon. Maybe we could caravan out there....we live in Wagon Wheel (Coto area) and will be cruising up the toll road. How much extra room do you have in that trailer of yours? We wouldn't take up much space. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[RUNNIN A FEVER]

Thor - are you going up Sat Morn? If so, let me know what time you will pass Hesperia and I'll tuck in behind ya.

[H20Advantage]

Saturday morning at 0830 hrs. from Katherines.

Gentry & Diane

[BADFISH II]

Thor's actually coming up thursday night I'm pretty sure to vegas. We may go to Mead on Friday with them.

[RiverLife]

Kevin, yeah you got me http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif I wasn't thinking in my "Friday" mind set. I usually leave on Thursday, or VERY early Friday mornings (and I tend to haul ass in certain parts......... Norco!http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif I wouldn't mind a caravan out there, you'll just bail on me at the 40..................... actually............. Friday afternoon, I'll take the 40 with you! The 15 SUCKS ASS on Fridays.

Our trailer is only a two bedroom: my girlfriend and I are in one room, and two of her friends are in the other http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rolleyes.gif http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/stare.gif http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif Actually I would love to have everyone stay there, but we don't have the room. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

Thor, I don't know if they rent those out or not. The number you've been calling for the motel is the same # you can call to ask if they do.

[THOR]

Fever (and everyone else),
I am always up for a caravan, but I too am leaving thursday from work. Packin' all my $hit and leavin' town.

Persistence pays off- I called just as there was a cancellation at Cottonwood for a room for friday night which is perfect. So, I will be down there all friday and saturday.

Sorry, Greg, but duty calls on the river. Plenty of cool ones for me and the Mrs on friday. Greg, I sent you the $ and a River CD for you or your friends that were with you last trip (I forget who was asking). Mix Master THOR has compiled another river CD. It is a package from my work, so consider yourself as being marketed for now http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rolleyes.gif

THOR -

[kevnmcd]

Hey RL-No worries. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif Kurt and I will be leaving early Sat morning anyways. We will see you at the launch ramp. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

BTW-I can't find the thread on the directions off the 15 to Cottonwood Cove. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/insane.gif Could someone spell them out again for the slow learners http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif in the class?

Fever-Kurt and I will be flying http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/crazy.gif by there about 4:30 am or so Sat morning. If you want to tuck in that is ok with us...just let us know where to meet ya.

[digginfordollars]

Kevinmcd, just before (about ten miles) the Nevada state line, turn right at the Nipton exit. Follow that to Seachlight, go straight through to Cottonwood.

[kevnmcd]

Thanks D4$. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

Kevin,
the offramp is just after the run-away truck sand pit, on the down grade of mountain pass. See you out there sat.
