finaly talked the missy into going out this weekend for a little cruise, wondering if anyone else were thinking of going out?
i'm really jonesing to hit the water too!!! what day are you thinking of going? i will most likely work sat. and sat. night we are all getting together at some pizza joint that greg picked out (you two are going RIGHT!!??). if we go, it will most likely have to be on sunday. we're going to try to make it (again) but i can't make any promises.

I'll be puttin my rocket in at callville bay on sun after noon around 12:00pm It's supposed to be the warmest that day, I think around 70-72 degrees. Good sun and beer day. Maybe a quick eye opener dip in the lake too. Dusty

Whoa, I would love to go to the lake Sunday. Oh wait, I just remembered, I have to go back to Hawaii for a week on Â*Sunday morning. Just my luck!
This time, I am not taking cake to the party either...

kevnmcd, THAT'S COLD BROTHER!!! http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif the only reason we didn't go last weekend was 'cause of the wind. the wife already said she wants to go so that's all i need!!!

I guess we can talk it over at Nikki Lee's. I want to go, but no tow vehicle.
i just solved your problem keith. you should borrow that dodge i've seen sitting outside your shop, you know the one that says it has something like 750hp!!! i think that MIGHT have enough power!

Hey, I'm going today Rude, how about you?
i took a couple of pics while we were at sandy today. i'm working on getting them posted.........
this is a guy we met at sandy (it's a 19ft kachina sabre, squirt boat). his name is mark and will probably show up on the boards some time soon. i'm not sure what he's runnin' for power other than it's a big block.
you can't really see it from the pic but his gel is pretty bitchin'. it has some splatter coat colors as part of his gelcoat design.
as you all know this is keith's water rocket. he was actually able to slow down long enough for me to take this pic http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif
this is aquaholics 26 daytona . i have another pic of his ride (the most important part) to follow http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif
this is his 500efi with a nice shiney whipple sittin' on top. BEAUTIFUL SETUP!!!
i must add that these pics would not have been possible without the assistance of aquaholics battery box. i backed the boat into the water, turn the key.....click click click!! WHAT THE F&#@?? i had the run the boat in my driveway about an hour ago with no problems. so i don't know what happened but she wouldn't fire up. i had never met aquaholic before and he walked up and offered to help get the boat started! that's what this group is all about!!! thanks again and i owe you one, or two or three http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif it was great to finally meet you and your wife and your dog http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

thanx for the pic. i always like the "in motion" shots. if i can get my wife to drive the boat sometime i'd really like to start taking a bunch of shots like that of the other boats in the club.

how do you make these pics small enough to post? oh no you owe me 30 or 40===$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ just kidding anything for a stranded boater
my camera makes it very easy for me. i have a box that i can check that will resize it for emailing. when i use that it automatically makes small enought to post. sorry i couldn't help more. by the way, could you please remind of you, your wife's and your dog's name. sorry dude, but i'm terrible with names http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

OK Aquaholicbum...you said you had more pics...some action shots... C'mon!
awesome pics guys!! keith, i said that i would try to TAKE some action pics if i could get my wife to drive the boat while i run the camera. i don't have any yet. RL, your buddies htm is SWEET! does he usually cruise cottonwood (at least it looks like the way to cottonwood). we'll make sure we keep checking the water level at mead for you until you get here http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif
thanx for the compliment RL!

Your very welcome for the compliment................ can I have a ride in it!? http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif
Yes, he ALWAYS cruises Cottonwood, he had the trailer next to mine there. But he just sold that boat, DAMN IT! http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif He was cruising a 27' Fountain for a bit, now he is cruising a 33' Scarabb. He switches boats like women switch moods.

02-25-2003, 06:41 PM
call me on the cell and let me know your gonna do a drive by and i can get ready for ya
the next time i know we'll be hooking up on the lake i'll make sure i have my camera as well (the problem for me is trying to drive and take pics at the same time). i also really want to get some video of you guys hauling a$$. we should try to set up in the middle sometime and start doing some "fly-by" pics.
kevnmcd, the jet belongs to a guy named mark. he is not a member of the club, at least not yet. keith hooked up with him just outside of sandy and when aquaholic and i showed we claimed a spot on the beach. keith told him about the club so hopefully he'll show up on here sooner or later. all i know about it is it's a 19ft kachina saber with a big block.
