Weathers looking questionable, this could dampen the attempt. I was planning on staying and boating Sun. also
Sat. showers, Sun. wash out. Hope it changes. It's only rained 1 Sat. this summer, we don't need #2 now. JC

I'll be there. Meeting up outside the clinton river around 10:00 - 10:30 and leaving as a group from there. Anyone is welcome to show up!!! I hate tying up to idiots, so the more offshores the better.

There's idiots out there?
I have to trailer there, and I don't get up that early.
Say hi If you see me out there, 27 topgun graphics purple, yellow, w- black checkerboard, also 27 on hatch-same colors.
The weathers looking better. We'll need an aerial photo of this if it works. Later, John

The sun always shines on the lake...

We'll be there. Even if the weather scares some people away, the record is only 1450 or so. We should be able to do that with our eyes closed. :D

thats it? Come on people. We are meeting at the clinton river at 10-10:15 waiting for a group from Belle Maer, then shooting down to pick up more at Metro then heading over to the raft off. Who else is coming? We have a powerquest, baja, powerplay, couple cigarettes, formula. Need more boats :D

Patriyachts; I assume you are launching at Metro we'll be down there around 10:30ish

Anyone else want to join up???? 616-403-3429 Darren

Re: Lk. ST. Clair MI. raft off this Sat. Going?
 
We probably won't be there till noon. But if we do get out early, we'll look for you.

Milord 08-12-2005 12:28 PM

Re: Lk. ST. Clair MI. raft off this Sat. Going?
 
We'd meet you guys but we are meeting at Gull at 10 and heading in, we'll be just down the raft from you guys. See ya there.

Hope you guys pull it off. I bailed, cant tow the boat for an hour to drive in the rain, I'm bummed. I always stay over somewhere and Sun. is a wash. I need a bimini top for the 3 times I would use it. JC

Re: Lk. ST. Clair MI. raft off this Sat. Going?
 
JC you're a whimp :D we are still going we want to be part of history :evilb: I had Ian pull our carpet out, but it's a boat it's OK if they get wet :p

fountain27ho496 08-14-2005 10:35 AM

Re: Lk. ST. Clair MI. raft off this Sat. Going?
 
Your right I'm a wimp...you have a top on that thunder?
And more importantly did it happen?
I never let the carpet get wet. Too expensive to replace. And I can't buy it at cost. John

Re: Lk. ST. Clair MI. raft off this Sat. Going?
 
It happened :D , day turned out real nice, and I am even a little sunburned :D We had dinner at The Crews Inn, and then spent the night at Metro. It rained hard during the night when we were sleeping and then pulled the boat this morning and got home with just a little bit of rain on the boat. We don't have a top on the boat, and we are glad we left the carpet in the garage, I have a few throw rugs to use for times like this.

They say around 1,700 boats were tied together. We walked down the center for close to an hour in one direction and still did not reach the end :eek: , the only OSOer we saw was DKWestern. If anyone saw a girl in a cowboy hat pushing a raft with a little Yorkie on it that was me.

:cool: I thought about you guys yesterday when it was stormin here. Wondered if you made it up. Donna, did you take any pics? I bet you looked cute in the cowboy hat :D :cool:

Re: Lk. ST. Clair MI. raft off this Sat. Going?
 
Like always we forgot the camera :D I was amazed at how nice it turned out, we got there a little on the late side and tied up around 3.00 and except for some rain drops around 2:00 when we were getting the boat launched it turned out to be pretty nice out there. Even today strated out grey and since 1 we have been having a lot of sun. I was dissapointed not to see more people from Oso threre.
