Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

I have talked to a friend at Lake Anna who has been talking to Hot boat . Jack says he has firmed up that hot boat will be doing areial photos and photos at a gathering at his Lake Anna home on June 17 2006. The areial photos will be done at 11 am as to the best lighting conditions. He has asked me to post this. Hot Boat wants to get as many larger boats as possible for the photos. Jack is more of a jet boater and has had 4 regattas at his home. There were 72 jet boats from all over at his last one in September. I will pass more info as I get it from Jack.

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

Joe Bladen???

Good guy, haven't seen him in a few years though, hope all's well.

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

is that for the "BOTE" regatta they have had for the last few years?

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

A great place to flush your stuff after a summer of saltwater. Watch the shallow water and low bridges. Duke's creek marina has a good ramp but very steep. No bars on the lake either but lots of party coves. The islands by the power plant are one of the great hangouts as also the 'sandbar'.
Enjoy all some real fast boats there easy triple digits.

Just got off the phone with Joe and the weekend is June 11. Not the 17. Still in the works..........
Check the Hot Boat forums for the info. Some great photos and video.

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

I owned DCM for 3 yrs. and i launch the A/T there for last summer.The islands and the sandbar are the places togo and hangout.The bar at hunters landing was open on fri. and sat. nites only.

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

Hey Scott, Joe has told me about you can't wait to meet you at the Chill Out, and Yes the same regatta they have had for a couple of years it keeps growing I Have a house just a couple of doors down from Jacks and can look across the lake and see Joe's next door neighbors house. Lake Anna is just west of fredricksburg Virginia about 20 miles off interstate 95. Yes I am talking of Joe Bladen ( he was my best man at my wedding 2 years ago) I can't believe just how small of a world it is when you start talking to other people

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

Yea and he took 1st place at the Jammin on the James poker run last year.Joe we want our $$$$$ back. :D

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

I've been trying to get Joe up in the bay for a poker run for years, but he like that smooth water of the lake. I go there from time to time and play with the jetskis. Maybe the both of us can drag him up here this year for a weekend at RedEye's. I'll talk more at the Chillout on how to get him out of the lake and into some real water.

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

Well Rich I just got his conformation he is going again this year maybe he will have the same luck Tucker had

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

Shoot I didn't realize that little pond had so many party spots. Maybe I'll trailer up check it out.... :D

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

I know how to get him to the bay.Ask he's boss and maybe she let him come out and play. :D

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

all you boys with your bpb's need to come on down to lake anna. watch out for the shallows. the jetboaters would love to see you park your boats and watch the roosters fly.

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

My 50 Nortech put's up a big tail but I don't think I can put in at Lake Anna. Don't they have a size limit ?

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

No limit.Bring it.

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

Teague's Liquid Metal was there 2 years ago :D:

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

Where is the longest deepest ramp ? and I will need big turn around I'm about 75 feet long.

What about a noise limit ? Mufflers ? It's pretty loud but nobody messes with me on the river.

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

Not sure whats going to happen with noise but we'll see.Fot the ramp Sturgens Creek marina right off 208 has nice ramps.High point marina too but if you don't get there early the bass boaters will have parking lot full and that means less turn around space.I put in at Dukes creek with mine and its somewhere around 70'.Hope this helps.

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
 

If you get that beast there then I really might have to get Formula there also. If we run away from each other the lake police won't know who to go after. Untill later................

Re: Hot Boat magazine comming to Virginia
