OS,
Same here on the SUNBURN! And I put sunblock 30 on too! Burned about ~ 90 gallons of gas, no damage, and had a GREAT time, except my wife couldn't go! :(

I burned 189 gallons high test Sunday and 259 gallons Monday. Not to mention about $2000.00 for a barbeque that I threw Sat. :evilb: :evilb: :drink: When can I do it again.

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

My ego(ran out of gas :rolleyes: ) and my liver were the only things damaged all weekend! :D

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

Yea, my ego took a hit on saturday as well, the wind caught me while docking and I came about 4 inches from putting some nice prop marks in a sailbote that was docked in a slip. I recovered and got tied up...but when I shut the engines down, everyone that was sitting outside at the restaurant started clapping! :D :D It's all good... and it could have been worse!! :D :D

I also ran out of gas about 1/2 mile before the marina yesterday. Thank goodness for having two tanks!!!

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

My genset had roughly 42hrs on it by the time I got home. Engines had about 1 1/2 hrs. Used more Diesel in the genset than running both engines. :D :D

Sunburn and liver (slight on both), caught a cold that is still bothering me today.

No other damages to speak of :D :drink: :evilb:

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

Well..I spent two days on the boat and the fuel ended up being cheaper than the alcohol so everything was great :evilb: except for the sunburn and taking half the day Monday to recover :drink:

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

Never made it out. Hopefully this weekend

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

It was well worth it. We actually had planned to make it to the TIKI bar, but we figured you didn't want a bunch of drunks showing up on your doorstep at 2AM :evilb: :eek:

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

K,
I was wondering if you would check this thread after I posted on it! :evilb: That was good thinking on your part, The TIKI bar was closed by then! :drink:

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

Took delivery of my 2000 30' mystique saturday (showed up from NC at about 2), and proceeded up river for some lunch at the blue oar. Than on Sunday I headed over to long island for my boats deput at claudios with the first spot in the basin.

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

I get a fricken e-mail every 2 seconds from OSO. Sad part is I have nothing better to do then look at them all :eek:

I figured the bar was closed but the biggest reason we didn't come is because I didn't want you throwing me into sykes creek with all the gators.

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

Had a pretty good weekend on the lake then Monday came and my son left for the Air Force, And I'm Proud of him. I guess that day was a good day to do it too.

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

I think Spicy put a dent in my prop with his foot. But other than that about 80 gallons of fuel (takes a lot to push that extra 7 feet huh Craig? :D ) and 80 gallons of Coors light were the only thing that got hurt....Oh, except for a couple of Bravos on two friends boats :eek: :eek:

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

I had a great weekend also.. I went Boating Fri. Sat. Sun. and Monday.. Burnt around 100 gallons and Had a Great Weekend!!!!!!!!!!! :drink: :drink: :drink:

But the Coast Guard kept stopping me for some strange reason????????? :evilb: :evilb:


Oh did I mention I did not need any Duct Tape :eek:

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

You never know who ties up to you in the middle of the night!!! :D :D :D Of course, in the middle of the night.....it was our groups fault, but in the morning..... "he saw the daylight" :evilb: :evilb: :evilb: :drink: :drink:

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

1. I thought that Spicy cut his foot on OldSchool 1's props???
2. Who else popped a Bravo besides Kenny?
3. I figured out that we traveled about 185 miles (over 4 days)this weekend and I was into the sticks alot...so that's not so bad!! :D :evilb: :drink: :evilb:

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

1.Yeah, he did, it was a little joke :cool:
2. Marty blew the left XR on the 47 down in Solomon's on Saturday night. We brought it back up on two Sunday morning.
3. Ya done good, and at less than 6 bucks a gallon too :D

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

That sucks. :(

After further review (I added up the receipts), I burned 202.9 gallons...at $3.059 a gallon. So this year it's costing me about 3.50 a mile. That beats the heck out of $12 a mile last year!! (2 gallons a mile at cruise) :eek: :eek: Plus, I can get the $.175 VA fuel tax refund until my lift is finished and I move her over to the new home permanently

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

Who are you kidding, he's Nancy's rope b!tch :D :D :D

Re: Memorial Day weekend damage report
 

Talk about bad Luck, Picked up my 06 353 on Friday afternoon. Saturday Morning was idling through a channel which was completely blocked by fishing boats so I idled outside the channel by about 7 to 10 ft and got into some rocks! Looks like I need all new lowers and a prop repair. AHHH!!! Nothing like an insurance claim on Day #2!!

The kicker is that I've been through there 1000 times, I knew not to get to far outside, but I wanted to be the nice guy and avoid the fishermen as much as possible. Looks like I learned my lesson. I'll be buzzing the tower next time.
