Good running with you again Tony. I know what BBobb wants for Christmas...new fuel-gauge sending units! My cabin door had a couple screws pulled through on one of the hinges (something I JUST fixed a couple weeks ago)...I'd say the forecasted 1-2 footers were really 3s with an occasional good-sized hole...you did well runnin' that 271 thru that snot...waves were coming from EVERYWHERE. I had a sore neck this morning, now I can barely turn my head!

Oh, and we had both the still camera and the video camera with us, but Michelle was too busy hanging on to use them!

Yea, it was a fun day guys. Good Job Tony keeping up, having owned a boat similar in size to yours, I know that you were "driving" that sob yesterday. Looked like alot of fun.

I had some $hit come loose in the cabin, along with a fresh case of beer i had sitting on the couch that fell down and left beer cans all over. Other than that, i was real happy with mine, even the times i aired out, felt like landing on a foam mattress. Got a problem with my kplanes, after a little while one creeps up, so most of the ride i just left them up, rather than keep fooling with em. Maybe it was the 200+ gallons of fuel onboard helping. Mike, you should have sent michelle with me, so she can take some vids of your boat. I still love the way your boat looks slicing thru the slop.

I dont think kool aid needs new sending units, just smaller motors! I left hammond filled to the brim, came back with just over 1/2. Idled back with kool aid, loaded em up, and ended up getting home around 8pm. Kinda wish he didnt run out of gas, i know he was planning on dropping the hammer once we got within site of EC, was wanting to see that.

Ran some 30P bravos yesterday, ran good but had a real hard time getting that sucker on plane out of new buffalo. kept blowing out. All and all, a good day to end the season.
