Baja Poker Run on Lake Travis
 

Just spoke with the guy at The Ski Dock and the date for the poker run is...................... April 17.

Can't weight!!

sweet,i heard they were torn between the 10th and the 17th.no-matter what i will be there:cool:

Is everyone staying at Lakeway???

We just got a condo through obergproperties.com. The condos are in the same area as Lakeway Inn. They are two bedroom two bath with a full kitchen. We stayed here last year and they are nice. $195.00 a night with full access to Lakeway Marina.

Has your email address changed??

we will probably be staying there as well....what are you guys doing for the fourth of july???we are gonna go to travis this year.already booked a house through oberg.ya'll come on down.lets do something different this year:cool:

Scott--you know they dont do the 4th on the 4th...its usually the 3rd.

When are yall getting there, we need to grab a beer that friday night. --You know you can always leave your boats here :D Its got a mini dock (not in the pic)

And the 3rd/4th is a BLAST at travis. We will definately have to all hook up for that. Its Devils Cove all day, then pull out to the main body and anchor----and remember to bring a long ass anchor (100-150ft)

runner,we are coming down on the 1st and going home on the 4th.so far we've got about 6 confirmed bajas coming down.we can discuss the beer stuff in april....:cool:

guys iam really thinking about makin it to travis for the april run to try out my new twin engine rig whats the best place to stay? sounds like a good time :)

Lakeway is the place to stay and rent a covered slip in the marina

Liquid, will the 32 be there?

April 17th??? Our water up here is still hard on April 17th. You guys need to get a life!!!!:p :p :D :D :D

Sounds like somebody needs to plan a trip to Travis in April:D :D :D

I hope so , I am working out details as we speak

lake travis
 

Hey Liquid looking forward to meeting all, made my arrangements at lakeway condo#17 just got my paper work form oberg properties in the mail! Wont leave till monday. Should be a blast

garshev,hook it up and come on down,travis is always a blast..the beer ain't bad either:p

Sounds like a nice getaway!! I've yet to make it to Lake Travis but am determined to make it this year. We usually do Lake Conroe, San Jac River - Galveston Bay - Clear Lake (not sure why they call it "Clear"). Some clean water with some scenery would be a nice change!

Are the Oberg condos y'all are referring to the ones labeled Schooner Cove on the website? Also, where do you guys leave your boats at night, rent a slip at Lakeway or do you put them on the trailer and park them somewhere?

leave em in the water at lakeway, put in at Mansfeild dam and leave the truck and trailer there

Liquid, why put in at the dam? can you not put in at a marina right around lakeway? :)

new29ol,

The ramp at Lakeway is very long and steep. I used it last year but I have 4X4 truck. When we went to leave it was raining and the ramp was wet, my buddy with 4X2 truck almost didn't make it. We had to stand in the back of his truck. These were 25 ft boats, your 29 would be even worse unless you have 4X4. I will be pulling my boat this year with the wifes new Suburban non 4X4 and will probably use the dam ramp and have her drive back to Lakeway, not crazy leaving a Suburban with 20" rims sitting there all weekend.

Here are a few pics from last year.

Johnny Finns for fajitas.

Again

Liquid in his 25.

If you look at the pic I posted of Liquid the ramp at Lakeway is in the background next to that ferry boat.

VIP Marina. This was the starting point. That is me on the end tieing up.

you can, but mansfield is soo much easier AND parking is good too, I dont know what its like at lakeway. Mansfield has a 4 boat ramp, not a single like lakeway.

Lake travis
 

Maybe I just might come down your way for something to do. How far is it from Oklahoma city and what kind of turnout do you get??? My f350 needs something to do after sitting in the garage all winter

Gary.:eureka: :eureka: :eureka:

Re: Lake travis
 

80-100 bajas. dont know the distance 6-7 hours?

come on down. 1st beer is on liquid asset :D

Get on that road! yes it is about 6-7 hours from OKC. I have never been on lake travis myself but have seen it and heard the party rocks there, good way to get out of that cold stuff and get yourself some BUD LIGHT therapy. Let me know if you do we can rollem on down there. Cya:D

Thanks for the info everyone. Hopefully I'll be able to make it out and meet some of you.

Can someone confirm if the Oberg Condos you are referring to are the ones labeled Schooner Cove on the website. I assume they are since they're $195/night. They look pretty nice too!

Condo
 

Yes i believe they are ,mine is #17 and it was $195 a nite. Hope you make it.

That is them. I stayed there last year and they are nice, at least the one we stayed in was. They are individualy owned and the owner rents them out through Oberg Properties. We will be there this year in condo #10. Look us up.

I'll be there, either past out in my 32 or in a room at lakeway

You know what happens to people trying to sleep on their boat on that dock:D :D :D

When you picking it up?

JTB, carefull , paybacks are a behotch!!
BL, a couple of weeks

yea,i heard it is hard to sleep in your boat at the dock :D state farm does me well,i have my 3 cars house and boat with them

Hey now , We just wanted them to wake up and have a beer;) :) :D :D :D who else is coming?
