Eliminator, I don't know him. I live in DeMotte.
I've got twin stagered 454 mags.
I met one of the guys with the campion on Sunday, Carl. He brought me over to Doyne's I left them a message today. Should be able to find out something tomorrow.

May be we can get together next weekend.

Payton, twins are a whole new world isn't it?

I saw a 42' Tiger on the river in St.Joe (Monday)and heading out towards the Lake. It was all white with the American flag painted all over it---not sure where he was from but he headed north towards South Haven.

Default St Joe River

Kaama,
Do you do much boating on the St Joe river? I have never been on it just over it on I94. Seen some post about Clemintines or somethig like that. Is it a good place to boat and are there more oso around? Looking for places to go on week-ends plus meet new people. Appreciate any help you care to give, Will be at thepoker run this coming month, Should find out about a lot of new places there!! Hope to hook up with you in the future...
Regards, eliminator219

Eliminator219,
Yes "Clementine's" is right on the St.Joseph River (Morrison Channel) and is a good place to eat, however it's not an easy place to find a spot to dock. About 100 yards up river from Clementine's is another little place called "Barney's Boathouse" where there are some open slips. They have food and drink and a place to sit right there on the boardwalk docks outside. Both places are just across the river from Pier 33 Marina. Unless you're familiar with the river I would NOT venture up any further. Also, the is a DNR launch over on the city of Benton Harbor side of the river on Riverview Drive. Use the launch that's NEAREST to the river/along the seawall. St.Joe has a real nice Venetian Festival on about the 3rd weekend in July which is a real fun time.

Payton,

Doynes is a nice place I used to put in the Scarab there years ago. Mike was always willing to help.

Did anyone go near Downtown, I was wondering what it is like with the "New Rules " ?

Tourist,

I have seen Lake Dale, That Sonic should empty it out with one pass !!!
