Change of plans, we are going to my dad's on Nomini Creek to play tomorrow. I'll have it out again at Fairview before the end of the season, it uses about half the gas.
Here's a pic from today

Did anyone go down today (Saturday)? What's the deal on swimming? Open or closed for Sunday?

Re: Potomac River Boaters- Fairview Beach on Sunday!!!
 
We were at Fairview on Sat., if the river is closed for swimming someone forgot to tell the 100 people doing the normal thing at Fairview Beach. Noticed a few less boats thought, it may be due to the increase in fuel. Someone else told me the ban was last week. I am not sure where they get their information about the closing. Havent heard it on any local radio, or TV news. Years ago they had a boat with a flashing yellow light going around telling everyone to get out of the water,didnt see that either.

I think that we are going to bag it and do yard work. :(

Re: Potomac River Boaters- Fairview Beach on Sunday!!!
 
After all that bar racing at Solomons last weekend, I knew you were coming out to get a piece of that Skater with fishing motors on it. But yard work is good!!! :evilb: :eek: :evilb:

That wasn't me talking, that was Michelob Ultra!!! :D :drink: :evilb:

If that little egg-beater boat runs the speeds that I think I remember Wayne saying it does...I've got nothing for him anyway!!! Then again, there is plenty of time left in this season. :cool:

I think my son was driving the boat, at that time. You have a very nice boat. Was everything ok. I heard you may have had some minor problem. Hope it was just that....minor.

The oil cooler had a pin hole leak in it , it sprayed oil all over the place, i must have lost 5 quarts of oil, so i just took my time coming home. Its a long way back were i live.
I talked to you a couple of times last year, your boat is gorgeous , hows she running ? Are you guys going to fairview next week, if so i will see you there.

I was wide open. Just had 4 people and gas in the boat. I have run a best of 109.2 alone, with the weight I had in the boat I was probably only running 104 or so. I was pretty sure you had me covered anyway. Gorgeous boat.

When i was heading back home that day it looked like you were having some problems also , nothing serious i hope.

I bought it from a broker in indiana , the boat came from california. The guy who built the engine rigged the boat to showcase his motor, but shortly after they went out of business. the company was PFM.

Re: Potomac River Boaters- Fairview Beach on Sunday!!!
 
Just curious. A 25/26 Elim just sold from Lake Anna a couple weeks back with 500+ cubes and a Quad Whipple on top. Look out if you see it.

I lost a trim solanoid and couldnt trim the motor down, so I had to idle back to Goose Bay, nothing serious however. Yeah I will be at fairview Saturday and Sunday, hopefully my Dad will have the Outerlimits out also.

I will certainly sleep better knowing you wont be on the river this weekend. I usually toss and turn until about Friday worrying if you are coming to Fairview. Have fun at LOTO, :eek:
