Oh Shorgasm.....
 
Here's some interesting reading for your Thursday morning.

You didn't happen to make this meeting, did you? Sandra Clinger is a major pain in the ass!! The funny thing was at the Manatee Trial here in Brevard Co., she was a "Supposed" expert witness for the STM club! Well, the Judge ripped her a new one, and disallowed her testimony as a "Manatee Expert" for not having any background for the title of "Manatee Expert", other than having a job with STM club!! That made my day!:D

That's just awful! 7 since 1996?....Do they realize how many tens of thousand of boats have cruised through there since 1996. Sounds pretty petty to me.

Now, this "cove" they keep referring to...This isn't the same one that many boaters in the area like to hang out in is it?? I forget what it's called...The Glen perhaps? Just wondering.

:cool:

Dean Ferry 02-28-2002 12:26 PM

bd,
The cove I think you are talking about is "Silver Glen Springs" not Deleon Springs, "Cove" BUT it's just matter of time before they gun for SGS too.
Where's Shor'? did he leave too?

Shorgasm 02-28-2002 02:18 PM

Haaaaaaaa.........I go nowhere!!!!!!!!

Baja Daze......you better watch your mouth about the Glen..........that's about the best place to play around here......if you're into girls and stuff like that.........You Know nudity and a little careful consumption of boat sodas.......Illegal of course....but that makes it feel fun to get away with it.......

Now watch how many people try and preach to me about boats and alcohol...........come on........I would never and will never drink and drive my watersled.......this place is strictly park and play....

Hey Bahahaha Boy......You ever been out to the Glen on a holiday weekend???????:eek:

CigDaze 02-28-2002 02:29 PM

Alright you big Bay[liner]B:p

Too damn funny, Dude! :D :D :D

No, man I've never been to the Glen. But, the last time it came up, all you guys convinced me that I just had to do it. Yourself, SkaterMike24 and others! I'll make it a point to do that this year just to do something new!

Shorgasm 02-28-2002 02:39 PM

Dude......you bett6er get your ass out there for memorial weeekend.........go out there on Saturday norning and stay till monday morning........trust me.........it's a whole different world if ya stay a couple nights..........


But one word of caution to ya.......talk to me when you think you gonna go and i'll tell ya where to park the boat......trust me on this......you have to be in the right spot to have a "good" time.......I tend to"find" them ever time....plus I got some buddies that save and "make" spots for us..........;)

DEEPVEE 02-28-2002 02:43 PM

WHEW!! MAN I'M GLAD TO SEE MY HERO SNORE-GISM IS BACK. I THOUGH MAYBE HE HAD BEEN ARRESTED BY THE OSO GOOD TASTE PATROLL......HAHAHAHA:D

CigDaze 02-28-2002 02:47 PM

Thanks Shor,
I'll keep ya in mind when making plans. I'll get Mike in on it, too!
So, you say Mem. day is a good one, huh? Hmmmm....
:D :D :cool:

Shorgasm 02-28-2002 03:00 PM

Hey man........who the hell is this Deep Vee character??????

Sounds like he needs some lessons.....;)

Anyways........The "weekend" of memerial is the fun time........Monday is cool but Saturday and Sunday are when the "chit" hits the fan......and with your size boat you'll fit in very well........lots of BIG BIG cruisers and mid 20's there.....maybe "Unleashed" will make an appearance this year.......that way you'll get to watch me tell the girls I let him borrow my boat.....:eek: :eek: :eek: as long as he keeps the Black clean......:D

Well back to the point.......bring plenty of food...ie.Brats steaks and such........and plenty of "clear" drinks.....makes it harder to get busted.......but still fun.....nobody gets plowed....well almost nobody........:rolleyes:

Remember.......a good spot is key to a good time....this place fills up to capacity quickly......

CigDaze 02-28-2002 04:27 PM

Thanks Shor. So sounds like I need to be in the are Friday night and get crackin' first thing saturday Morning. Cool! :cool:

Ya, that deepvee...He got noticed quick!

Anyway, Tell me more about the glen. any pics? I heard it was a spring-fed area. Clear? What kind of water? Is it deep or more like waist depth. Do you anchor and walk around or beach on shore?

L8R!:cool: :D

Shorgasm 03-01-2002 12:50 PM

Hey man........sorry I had to leave for a bit.......but back to the questions..........First off the Glen is a fresh water spring........about 3-4 feet deep all around..........let's say for reference imagine a football field size stretched out a bit......Boats park on the outside and then make a inner ring........the inner ring is where to be.....

On one side it's about six foot deep for the bigger boats to come in..........ya gotta see it when ya come in.......huge fish swim outside the inner cove......kinda cool.........just real clear water....

When you come in you can walk your boat by the bow and anchor it down........kinda sandy and such.......You never touch the bottom of you boat on anything.....but the drive...well that's another matter......you can see where it gets shallow real easily

Boats are all side by side....so bring bumpers.....you can walk almost all of the area........most of it is about 2 foot of water maybe up to your waist........72 degree water all year round....never changes....when ya get a good spot it is kinda hard to leave but still possible.......bring all the food you can imagine.....people have grills and stuff......make friends with house boaters.........they are great if it rains and for cooking.....

There are a couple ice and small food boats that come around all day.........it's kinda pricey but worth it I guess.........$3 -4 bucks a bag..........There are restrooms....porta potti type.........remember it's a state park.....but closes at night.....if ya had to bring a car you could..but you'll pay for parking overnight......reasonable.........

There are a few ramps about 10 miles away or so by boat.......good parking truck and trailer wise.....very bright and safe.......makes for a good trip to the Glen.....everybody knows where it is just ask if you can't find it.......any more questions just ask........Trust me it's a blast.......I don't get excited about crap so this place has to be fun for me to look forward to it.....Terry

CigDaze 03-01-2002 01:17 PM

Thanks a lot Terry,
I appreciate all the info! You got me psyched for it! It sounds a lot like our little islands and such, but the glen would be a great new experience! Sounds more and more like a must do!

Maybe we'll see eachother there this mem. day!

:cool: :D ;)

Shorgasm 03-01-2002 03:05 PM

Funny you say that......that's how I got hooked.......went out there on my jet-skis one year just for the day......

Went and bought a boat the next week.....had to do it right the next time..........:rolleyes:

birdog 03-01-2002 03:34 PM

Man....This place sounds toooo nice !!!!!! But where is it ???

Shorgasm 03-01-2002 03:41 PM

Nope it's pretty cool...man.........It's right off lake george in Florida

North central Fla......to be more exact........

It is technically illegal to drink there......but there are ways around it...........gotta be discreet ya know.


Lots of different boaters there...kinda like here...........but wetter.......


;)

CigDaze 03-01-2002 03:42 PM

I hear ya, shor...There's a first time for everything and curiosity is a *****! :D :D :D

Birddog, I was just searching on Google and came across somebody's private webpage about the place. It has good pics, so here it is.

Shor, you're so right. This place looks awesome!

:cool: :cool: :cool:

birdog 03-01-2002 03:49 PM

If things go my way i want to tow to Fla. next winter. I will have to check that place out!!!!!!!!! They have that no drinking thing on lake Cumberland also....You just have to be cool about it..Cooly cups on youre beer,keep youre cocktail down etc.....

Shorgasm 03-01-2002 04:30 PM

That's the Glen baby..............all the dark is kinda weedy...but it's usually to deep to feel........and off the beaten path.....

If ya know peole you can get right in the middle.........where the "fun" is...............of course that's my opinion...........oh and TWO batteries are a must here...........but everyone is generally nice.......in the middle they form a sort of "pool" no one can really getin or out......boats on all sides.......the cops can't really bother you that way......


But keep the eye out for them.........cause they are there...both counties.....one of which doesn't care too much........damn if I know which......:rolleyes:
