Where on the lake are you located?
We are at the 45MM on the north shore.
Been down your way before, it gets real rough down there.
We have a 93 271 also, fun boat to drive, not real fast, tops out at 60 with a 4 blade 22P hydro.
Saves hours on the Donzi and the Wife and kids spend most the summer at the lake, the kids will be working down there this summer. they use the Formula when I'm not there.
The Daughter got a job as a server at Coconuts already.
Maybe we will see you around some time.
By the way LOTO is awesome!

Yea Saturday through mid-day on Sundays during June-Aug are incredibly rough water. So we just take the boat to a nice quiet cove and drop anchor, relax, swim, listen to music during the really rough part of the day. But any other time during the week it's a great area to boat around, plus I am really falling in love with boating during the "offseason" down there.
We really enjoy going to Coconuts and getting lunch, lounging, and playing some volleyball...its a great spot. Plus its really close to one of the quite coves we spend Saturdays in when the water is rough.
Definitely let me know when you will be at the lake this summer...can't say that I have ever taken the boat all the way to the 45MM (sounds like about $600.00 in gas round trip from the 7 YIKES!!). But there are always placed to meet in between.
PS- love the setup you have going...Donzi for yourself and 271 for the family, great idea, will def need to incorporate this into my boat buying plans in the future. HAHA

Will do We have a trailer for the formula and a ramp right by the house, its only about a 15 min pull to the Gravois ramp, we have been kicking around the idea of pulling the Formula over there to check out the other side of the lake and not have to burn $300 worth of fuel.
