Active Thunder Onstar Service
 
Yep, I did not know it until this weekend but my old '98 32 has an Onstar button. You push it, Pat calls you and brings your trailer to you to keep you from bobbing and weaving in the ICW until midnight or so due to 6-8's offshore. I'm sure the newer boats have it too.

What kind of service is that??

Thanks Pat.

Tom

Yep, the new 33's have it too. :D

Never got to use mine since we picked up and headed north. Maybe someday when she returns to the sunshine state:rolleyes:

I made that same trip up the IC in January due to those same waves. It was just a nice ride, drinking a few beers and checking out the houses.

NT Receptionist: "Good afternoon, NorTech Powerboats. How can I direct your call?"

Operator: "Terry Sobo, please. The Nameless No-tech owners have run out of fuel and need help."

NT Receptionist: " Mr. Sobo says to tell them he's out of the office for the week visitng Hanz and Franz and that they might one to call Clark Beecher to save them."

chuckbeecher 11-14-2007 09:28 PM

Sydwayz 11-15-2007 06:23 AM

Nice work Clark! Funny as all hell! :D :D

yzbert 11-15-2007 09:04 AM

now is that the same "free tank" of fuel that you get when you buy a nor-tech that he was running all weekend? he must be planning on taking it back to terry empty for prop testing.:)

crb76 11-15-2007 10:26 AM

HAHAHAH! I just read this! I have been burried with work since returning. That is some funny chit! Jeff, I would do it again in a second for you brother. It did get a little dicy out there especially after we broke the rope in between the rocks. I still have no idea how you missed them and we were able to get you a new rope. We did have a near miss when the bow of your boat almost crushed my brother and I. Thank god Kevin is strong and was able to push it off while I hit the gas!

I felt like I was in baywatch without the hot chicks!

Sandy did flash her tities in apprieciation, I guess you just missed it, Kevin saw it, that's how he almost fell off the boat:ernaehrung004:

JUPITER PULSARE 11-16-2007 02:26 PM

Too funny, Classic Pat Sarcasm!!!!
 
Damn Pat, your even funnier than when I worked there!! That's worth framing.....maybe even make a poster and sell it on line!!

R Addiction 11-18-2007 01:54 PM

Just taking this opportunity to say it was great meeting a few more of the AT brotheren (and that guy with the Notech also, just kiddin' Jeff). Someday I'll learn to not start the drinkin' right after breakfast. I thought that was a rule in KW!! I missed the AT get together and I should have taken that ride back with Clark on monday......big water:cool: See you all soon!!:ernaehrung004:
