it is, thats what sold us on it!

I'm thinking a turtle run for a late lunch today if anyone is around...anyone know if the dock is in where clare and carls used to be?

Who has the Donzi Blackhawk in Shelburne?


Frank

Chris has a 35zx (something like that). Not sure if that's the donzi u mean. We got out on the scarab today and love it. Quick trio to the turtle for lunch, a stop at point au Roche to see Mapes and it ran flawlessly! Handles and rights soooooooo much better than our old boat.

one more thing..i did see one log floating...but that was it and it had a big piece that was visual from a ways away sticking out of the water. I'm sure there are probably things under the surface but there seems to be a bit more traffic on the lake and it will hopefully clear things up more.

Hopefully Breakwaters will be running soon instead of floating!!!!

Cruised around the bay tonight with the family.The ramp and the lake are ready for some noise.Nice night for dinner on the boat.Watched Travis Lavallee and the crew wheely across the Sandbar bridge on bikes.

I would imagine lots of clearance under the SB bridge now. Usually my boat can't make it, unless I want to do impeller changes. Did you go under it?

We stayed on the on the South side last night.The shallows are about 6 feet deep and there is at least 8 feet 0f clearance under the bridge.

so, season has started on the lake? safe enough?

Hey Jeff,Yes the lake is ready for some boating.We have been out twice and seems to be safe.The water temp is at 70* 0n the surface.Come on down!!!! Tom.

Good to see some boats out. Took a little ride by Thayers on Sunday. Looks like there's just enough beach to get out of the boat. On the way back had to make a hard left to avoid tree roots sticking out of the water, be careful out there.

Glad to see things are starting to shape up. Will be prepping the rig this weekend. Looks to be some nice weather the beginning of next week Tom.....may play hooky for a day and get out! I'll let you know!

Tom maybe we will see you out there this weekend.
I'll see if i can drag Doug out
Keith

Peru dock now has there docks in ...and there is gas at snug harbor now I believe....

you really think U can get Doug out on that beast?:D That would be cool though!!!
I heard your running some good numbers. Tom.

Prepping the rig Jim?You get your ass out there this weekend!!!! Were coming over to get U so put the batterys in and fire it up!! :D

Ya he has been helping me with it. Alot of work prev. owner didn't do much maint. last year of ownership. Motors run real good for a set of 502 mags. somewhere around 395hp. should be a real screamer. Doug say's probably around 68 mph!!!!

Hey tom are you still launching the ssr from your driveway or has the water finally come down...heard breakwaters is screwed!

Anyone know of a place to rent a boat on the lake. Renting a house on Lake Champlain for a week and wanted something to play with. To long of a drive to pull my boat from Cali.

Thanks, Brian AO Coolers

Hi Brian, We have 2 of your coolers in our Sunsation.They have a spot molded in the floor to strap them in.They work great for weekend boating.I wiil look into the boat rental thing for you.We boat out of Burlington all summer. Tom.

Hey Dave,the lake is ready,are you?Breakwaters will be open on July 1st.Sunday is shaping up to be a boating day!!!

Good night for wheelies across the sand bar!....But a GREAT night for the boat!...I'll be on the water via boat Sunday. I'm sure I will run into you guys!

what beach that was treadwell

First raft shots of the year. Way to start it Robin. Dave and I dropped in this afternoon for the shakedown. He ran strong with just the partial mods. Stayed around Valcour....'twas a bit choppy in the broad and towards the Turtle! How was the bottom and sand at Treadwell?

ooooh i cant wait to get back out! anyone considering watching any of the fireworks from the water? anyone have a spare anchor they want to sell? haha!

lake champlain
 

bottom sand was fine jp,looks like some nice weather the next few days.

Okay Slink, your in the big boy boating world now...you got a Scarab....fes for an anchor now...ha!!:boat:

Nice....I was hoping that nice beach wouldn't get "gummed up". Agree, this weekend shaping up nice!

Is the fun run coming back to the lake JP?

I don't know........late start this season. Still need to make sure the lake is clean to have a bunch of boats runnin' 'round! Maybe towards August if everything looks good and everyone is game (which I'm sure they will)!

Did the shrink wrap today, some polishing, more tomorrow. I told the marina dude I'd appreciate it if he got the blowboater the heck out of my slip. Looks like tomorrow I splash. July 1st, a new late record.

I think we all broke records this season!

nice little tie up today....hope tomorrow is nice! where is everyone going?

First Big Raft of Season
 

Few shots from Treadweel yesterday.

Few more

Last few. Nice day! Good to see everyone back again!

Anyone get out today? We will be out tomorrow
