Re: Going for a boat ride.
 
I'm really F#$%ing pissed off. I could not get the boat in the water due to it being dead low tide. The cat would not float off the trailer. We'll I'm off from work tommorrow so I will put it in when the tide is right . It's only supposed to be high 40's, but what the hell.


Dean, I will be down in Feb. for the race and the boat show. If I don't bring the cat down I want a ride on your Boat................ :drink:


Greg, I bought a 30 ft Motion cat with 2.5 race offshore 's about 3 months ago. just another toy............. :evilb:

Hey Tom

A Buddy of mine was down at Tappen Beach and told me the boat looked awsome. Congrats and have fun with her.. Wish I was boating today and yesterday also.

TomFTM 01-11-2006 01:18 PM

Re: Going for a boat ride.
 
Titan, where was you friend , was he working on the tappen boat ramp? tell him Thanks for the comment on the boat.

Kitten, It was just me and a friend out there playing around , I did not want any other people with us in case of any problems. The water is only 40 deg. Hey you never know , you might see that boat in p-class this year :eek:

Stormrider 01-11-2006 01:24 PM

Re: Going for a boat ride.
 
Tom, I'd be interested to see how that boat runs in the normal type of waters we get around here. ya know, during the busy summer days where the OL still could be overkill.
I see it was flat the day you went out.
Let us know how your next run is.

Re: Going for a boat ride.

Have fun out there.

Hey Tom Shoot over to Montauk point and maybe I will meet ya off Block Island.

Tom,

I asked my buddy if he talked to you and he told me he was sitting in the car watching. I told him the day before after I read the post at the begining. Then he told me the next day he saw you out there. His exact words were I can't believe this guy went out two days in Jan. and his boat and mine for that matter are put away and winterized..
