Great Ledges view!

Kelly (Payupsucker) ripping past

I’m in love with that boat!

You all be careful out there this weekend and enjoy yourselves !! Headed South on the bike this morning for a long weekend and will not get to see you fly by at my regular observation seat at the 12mm. There is a little floatsum in the water here and there, but looks pretty clean out there. Don't know up by Big Dick's. Be aware that there are a lot of families on the water this week, probably more than usual, (Covid Refugees) my guess. Likely in smaller boats or rentals.

Sucks that Spicy couldn’t grace us with his presence, but it’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood.

I also have like 400 pictures of cigarettes. Lol posting on a phone on here is not user friendly however. I’ll post em when I’m back home.

Daughter Nika, Jason and Tank.....nice to finally meet you and the family....

We had a freaking blast!!!
Had a boat load of beautiful gals the whole trip.
Taylor (Tank’s daughter) is the absolute best boat gal. Always two steps ahead of whatever needs doing. You never have to ask, she’s already on it.....every time.
We missed you Frickstyle.
Thanks to Curt (GotCigs) and Allysa for their hospitality and thanks to Tank, Taylor and Dan (H2OToi) for buying all the food and drink.
Already looking forward to next year!

What an awesome weekend. Nice to meet a lot of you guys, and thanks to PBC for everything they do. If you own a cig you have to come out for this, you won’t regret it.

Great to finally meet you guys Ken. Wish we could’ve hung out a bit more but there’s always next year and hopefully you’ll have the gremlins worked out.

OK, I'm doing it next year for sure.

I feel like I need to get a cig just to get a chance to go to this event!!!

They say a camera adds 20 pounds, your phone had to have had 3 lenses on me. Great to see y’all and safe travels back to Comifornia.

Or be fortunate enough to have a friend with a Cig that invites you along which has happened for me a couple times. It is an absolute blast to participate. Just being down at the lake during the run is worth it even if you aren’t participating. Lots of eye candy to take in.

Had a freakin riot. Ready for next year already.

They caught us creeping HAHA :drink:

Awesome. Makes you want a cig

Ran around all day thursday, no issues.
Friday came ran to Red Heads no problems.
Go do the run , idle out (10 minutes)and then idle for 15 minutes waiting on everyone to get in place.90* ambient, water 80* or so ..

The run starts , my heat soaked engines go into guardian mode because I set those parameters for lake michigan water and air temps not Loto.
Intake temps are 180* , I have it set to go into guardian mode at 170* and let me have full power once it drops to 140*

Would only allow me to do 2500rpm, I try and get water running thru the chillers at that RPM to cool the intake temps down but that didn`t work.
Second group left .. I`m like really?
Break out the Laptop , change temps to 200* and off we go , there was still a few people we could run with and maybe get some nice heli videos.

5 minutes later, Hit a cruiser wake and port engine dies upon landing , I`m like common!!! Would not restart .
Sit there a while trying to figure it out , had fuel, had air .. couldn`t figure it out....meanwhile we`re getting tossed around from all the wakes .....start limping towards the condo when I had a thought about the sudden impact maybe a wire fell off the coil relay.
Sure enough that was it.
Put ground wire back on relay and we were back in business.
Disappointed I didn`t get to run with everyone.. of course for the rest of our trip it didn`t skip a beat... standard.

Great pics! Good meeting you guys. Your boat was looking good. I heard numerous times from people talking about how bad azz the flatdecks were!

Thanx Tank , good meeting you man . Next year bring your Cig?
man that would be a long ride right?

People already trying to talk me into that craziness! 1700 plus miles one way. I think I’d rather keep riding with Kelly on the tiger frankly. Lol.

we’ll see you back out there next year either way and hopefully get to hang out with you guys a little more. I can’t say enough about how great the area and people and event was. Definitely on our must do every year list now.

Did I see Rice Hauler in the last set of pics?

Anyone know who owns the 42x with 1350s?
