Steamboat!

Steamboat again

[Rude]

awesome pics! looks like we missed and excellent weekend! how was the turnout from LVHB?

[BADFISH II]

thanks for the pics KC.

We had us, Thor, OutCole'd, KC, and HD - I think that was it, any others?

Somyr (our friend from SLC) got super seasick, and we had to keep moving, eventually taking her back to the hotel, so we missed out on most of the lake fun http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

It was a great time, and EVERYONE there won something, many people multiple times!

Chris, you throw one hell of a party bud! Hope the boat is ok!

[Rude]

looks like we'll have to make sure we can attend next years festivities.

[OutCole'd]

That was an awsome time!! The poker run was a blast. The weather could not have been nicer. It was great to put some more faces to the names from the boards. Some great prizes also.

Chris & Todd, hats off to the both of you !!
Thanks for putting such a great party.

I have some pics I will post when I figure out how. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/ohboy.gif

KC nice pics, where were you saturday night? Were you at the dinner?

Bill

[kc0000]

I did not make the dinner, something came up and I needed to get back to Los Angeles - nothing of worry.

The weekend was great! Lots of fun!
KC

[OutCole'd]

I thought you were missing. You didnt miss anything as far as the dinner was involved, But you sure missed a great time at the awards part of it. They did a great job. That was as much fun as the boating part of the regatta. Too bad you has to miss it, I am glad it was nothing serious.

[THOR]

That was indeed fun!

I couldnt make it back either. We were chillin' in Disneyland the later part of the day, after the sandbar, and after Topoc. We were hangin just north of the 'reeds' around 7:00 to 8:00 at night and needed to turn the lights on.

[THOR]

I cant post my pics from my hard drive!!!
WTF?
I get the 'cannot find server' message.

[Havasu Dreamin]

I think a good time was had by all. I think there were a total of 25 boats in attendance. And I'll have to echo what OutColed said, the awards ceremony was a BLAST!

[BADFISH II]

Thor, I'm just going to post my response to your pm here, because your messenger is full - gotta clean that out bud!

Dude,
I have some really good pics from this past weekend, but I am unable to upload them from my hard drive. I am using the browse button like I have in the past, but it is giving me a DNS error.

Any ideas?[/QUOTE]


Strange, do you have any spaces or nonalphanumeric characters in the names? That will muck it up.

[THOR]

No. Just MVC0002.jpg kind of stuff.

My messenger is clean.

[Essex502]

Hey KC...we lost you Saturday! Went into the Casino marina to use the facilities and came back and you were GONE! But, just about that time was when Chris's motor went south and we accompanied him and the tow boat back to the marina. Didn't want to let you get away without sayin' how much fun we had. Good to see you again! That stereo sounds killer too!

[BADFISH II]

Thor's pics

[BADFISH II]

he may have a pdd, but keep him away from your computer http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif

[BADFISH II]

another

and RRXer's have nothing on LVHBer's http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif we just don't have as many pics http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif

[BADFISH II]

the poor thing in the cowgirl hat is Somyr, she was almost at critical "YACK" overload at this point.

[Essex502]

Two chick pic's from LVHB? 6 "thong butts" from RRX? 2 vs 6? Is my math wrong? Plus can't even make out who the 2 are! Hey, seriously, fun was had by all! And those two have no reference to any on the LVHB attendees. Could be anybodies from the Sandbar!

[THOR]

That is Mrs. THOR on the right.

[BADFISH II]

502, the one on the left is Thor's company.

Trina nd Somyr, well you know that story, we had to keep moving and eventually take her back to the hotel.

Lake Hottie couldn't make it because VBD had to work.

Beach Bum and his wife had the kids, etc. etc.

If I'm not mistaken, I think those thong chicas came with the 34 Magic and Kyle Lewis, but I'm not sure. All I do know is that we had a great time.

[RiverLife]

Did McGrath and those guys show up?

[RiverLife]

Glad to hear it was so much fun. I'm almost teary eyed that I haven't been able to get out there lately. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif
The orange is starting to grow on me a bit.

[THOR]

RL,
Nice pic of you on the #2 KTM.


I personally saw at least 4 of the thong chicks on the 34' Magic. The other thong chick was right behind them on the HTM that pulled up later on. I am merely stating what I observed. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

[BADFISH II]

Hey Thor, wasn't that Kyle Lewis that was there?

Sorry we've been missing ya RL, we gotta hook up again soon!

G

BTW, I had some pics, not many, just a couple. Unfortunately I do not have those pics anymore. Camera bag is missing http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif whats worse is that's the least of it, there was something 10 times more expensive in that bad http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

[THOR]

G,
I hope it is not what I think it is. If so, I am truly sorry.

Who exactly is Kyle Lewis? Why does that name sound familiar?

[BADFISH II]

it was, very not good

I think he's a pro motocross dude

[THOR]

here is another of the new Cobra tunnel. I saw it first hand and it was bad ass.

[THOR]

But, it couldn't hold a candle to this hotrod http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[RiverLife]

Yeah, Kyle Lewis is the #1 "privateer" for supercross/ motocross which means he's not a factory rider like THOR and myself http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif but Kyle has a s**t load of money still ! The guy forgot about his 2 year anniversary, so to get out of the dog house he went out and bought his wife a new E Class Mercedez!!!!!! If I forgot something like that........... I'm just shit out of luck! http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif
BTW - who is that dude posing in front of THOR's Elim. ? http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[THOR]

That is the #1 Factory Eliminator rider. (in the unlimited weight class)

[RiverLife]

Reply to your PMs "factory" guy! http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[THOR]

Yo,
I did. I think LM is deleting them. I will be at the boat show saturday, then hanging with my dad sunday. It is his b-day. Is trina in town this weekend?

YO RL, I tried to send you a PM earlier today, your box is full an unable to recieve any new ones, might be the problem.

-bd

[THOR]

For the Nordic owners out there (not you rude)

This is not to show you Mrs THOR and me.

I figured since you were used to looking at the back of my boat while we were racing from the sandbar saturday, I would show you what I look like.

LM, Outcoled,
Did you see the guy in the 25' Nordic Rage with red checkers. He and I had a good run down river saturday.

p.s. I love this crap

[In2Deep]

I think I was chasing you in that boat.
Nice ride.

Thanks for clearing up the mystery -- some of us were wondering who that was in the sweet magic with the on-board hotties.

dh

[kevnmcd]

Thor-What is the top speed of your sled? You have the 454 Mag, right? What prop?

[Rude]

thor-what boat is that in the background? it looks like something with twin o/b. it sounds like missed a kicka$$ weekend. shame on us for not going http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif so what's the next big event on the calender that i should make plans on attending?

[RiverLife]

I should be able to get messages.......... unless having 2 in there is considered full ! Try again.
THOR - so no golf in the morning? Sometime then for sure.
DAMMIT I wish I could have gone to the F***ing Poker Run!

[THOR]

In2Deep,
What boat were you in? I got smoked by a twin engine scarab (damn1), but then I raced a Nordic 25'. It had about 4-5 people in it, with a dark haired guy driving.

Kevin,
Yep 454 MAG, GPS said 68 with me, mrs THOR, dog, ice chest, 70 gallons of fuel.

Thor-I don't know why you keep doggin' on your boat, then....68 mph with full tanks is very respectable. I wish I could just get to 68!! http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif Actually, 69 would make me happier!! http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif Maybe someday my boat will grow up and be like yours...different colors though. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

[THOR]

Kev,
I want to go FASTER. 68 is nice, but most of my buddies are going was faster. One has a 2000 Cheetah with a 7.4L and hits 70 with 2 people. BBum goes 95. Chad (Eliminator 25) goes 95, Greg goes 85 (right Greg?). I am 25 mph slower. That makes it tough to cruise at 60 with your buddies.

I am never content with what I have. I doubt I am the only one.

Are you going to the boat show. I should be there around 1:00 or so. I will be hitting Joe Josts in LB before then for a Polish sandwich and a brewsky.

RL has a wedding.
LM is working.
you??

Who else?

[In2Deep]

THOR:

I was in the Nordic 28' Heat, platinum checkers with blue/yellow stripes -- the heavyset guy wearing a Stetson most of the time.

[THOR]

I remember seeing you. You were closer to the end of the tie-up right?
Very nice ride. Those 28' Nordics look like 30' or 32'ers. The 25's look like 28's. Unbelievable. All you guys were really cool. I had a fun time. It is hard when you get the river 'itch' this late in the season. Not good.

What motor package do you have in there?

[STV_Keith]

You are NOT the only one.

[BADFISH II]

85? yeah, I wish http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif

[VegasBD]

All that is too damn fast for me. Hey is there ever a speed limit on any of the lakes? WIerd questions i know but just curious?

Correct. Two or three down from the lake-side end. I may have floated on down and shaken your hand.

I've got the 496 Mag HO. It's running great. Managed 65.1MPH over the weekend. Not bad for heavy boat.

Hopefully we'll hook up with you all again sometime soon.
dh

[THOR]

The HO huh? I here that superchargers work great on those. HINT!

[kevnmcd]

Thor-No I am not going to the boat show....No time! I wish you the best on reaching your goal of more mph....all it takes is $$$$$$$$$$$ http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif

[THOR]

I'm picking up your sarcasm Kevin.

[Essex502]

I can attest to In2Deep's 65.1 as he was nearly keeping up with me on Friday as we ran back from Steamboat. That was before he put the new lab'd 24 on and I had him on the GPS at about 64 or so. That big "ship" does run pretty good. Now if someone could talk him into a Whipple or Procharger!

One of my favorite college hangs! A couple specials, a couple PBR's and a pickled egg. So when are you going to be there? http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[BADFISH II]

Joe Josts is a cool place, good food too.

[THOR]

NoStressex,
I was planning on being there around 11:00 or 11:30, if we can get out of the house. I have some planting to do early.

[No strESSEX]

Thor,
Sounds good. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to work Saturday. I'm assuming the show is on Sunday as well. Would like to get down there if possible. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rolleyes.gif

[THOR]

Yeh, from what I have been told, it is on Sunday as well. Nothing like the LA show in terms of size, but it is still cool to check the new boats and models.

[Essex502]

Thor is this you?

[Essex502]

Oops, a little large!

[Essex502]

Greg:

[Essex502]

KC:

[Essex502]

Who else was there that I might have snapped? And...what were you in?

[OutCole'd]

I have some good pics from the regatta, I just do not know how to post them. Do I have to have them on a server? Or can I attach them from my hard drive? That is the 64k Question.

Sincerely,
A. Tard

[Essex502]

OutCole'd:

If they are in JPEG format (jpg suffix) then you can post one at a time by clicking on the "Browse..." button at the bottom of the "post" screen I'm typing in right now. To the left of the "Browse..." button is the "File Attachments" label. WHen you click on "Browse..." button, it will open a windows browser where you can navigate to the file you want to post. I don't know if it works for other file formats such as GIF or TIFF or whatever, but works fine for JPG.

Can't wait to see them!

Mike

[OutCole'd]

Thanks, Here is my first attempt.

[OutCole'd]

Allright, that is still a little big. Let me resize these and I will be a posting fool. Hey, this also helps my post count.

Hey, great shot Greg! Do you have it in a larger size by chance?

[BADFISH II]

Sorry mike,

I save them and when I do, I save them to fit in here. My bad. Next time I'll save too copies.

Thor & his possee

Thor, going by.

Greg going by with his parachute open to slow him down. He must have been doing 120 before the chute opened.

The scenery was great

[OutCole'd]

Tried to get a pic of the thongs, and 25eliminator's back got in the way. Sorry.

Slowinhavasu was great. Fastest pontoon boat I ever saw.

AWESOME PICS!

kc0000 -

I touched the photo up a little by adjusting the color balance in Photoshop. What do you think?

[RiverLife]

How come no one took any pics of THOR?? Doesn't anyone like him? http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

I took two of Thor http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif they're there, check your thread bud http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif

[kc0000]

EsSex502....
That touch-up is great! Thanks.

When are you heading up again.... I assume you saw my post regarding October.

KC

[OutCole'd]

I think RL was being sarcastic. I think Thor was popular, he is in almost all the pics. Actually, we were trying to get Ms. Thor, & he kept worming into all the shots. J/K http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[BADFISH II]

oh, sorry, I'm just in a daze right now working my tail off on the BoatXchange - man, wait till you guys see the enhancements, it's phenomenal. BT and Ebay will suck for boaters compared to us.

I'm just not all here right now, mind going in a billion different directions.

KC[/QUOTE]<span id='postcolor'>
Saw the post but won't be back in Havasu until 10/12. Probably won't have time to boat as we have lots of details to finalize on the new house there. Electrical changes, lighting selection, appliances, paint colors, etc., etc., etc.... Probably be back there late October though.

[THOR]

RL,
you know better. Nobody likes THOR!

maybe if he got back on a honda he could get back to his winning ways
