Lake St. Clair this Saturday
 
Does anyone want to hit the Sandbar on Saturday?

28SS 06-05-2002 12:02 PM

Sure send me 1 motor pleasee and i'll be there!:D :D

I just want to get back out on the water after selling our boat 5/16. Deal now is between 2001 37 Formula SS or a 2002 38 PQ with 500 EFI's and loaded.

The difference between both boats is Space, Money and Speed!

Stupid Question, Where is the Sand Bar Located?

Milord 06-05-2002 01:13 PM

96Vyper. I would opt for the Powerquest but that Formula would be way better to party on! I wish I had those kind of decisions to make!

The Sandbar is in Puce, Canada. It's probably 15 miles from Metro or so. Nice patio that sits out over the boats, not crazy busy like Jack's or anything though.

MooseKnuckle 06-05-2002 02:07 PM

Milord,

This decision is killing my wife and I. The good thing on the Formula, is my thinking has caused the dealer to reduce the price by $5600 and put more options on the boat for us.

You are right, the formula would be great to party on, but there is about a $60K difference between the two.

Is the sandbar on the Thames River?

jr 06-05-2002 02:12 PM

I wish I had that kind of decsion to make. I worry about if I can afford to renew the plates on the trailer or just risk it.

Milord 06-05-2002 02:15 PM

96Vyper ... that is a lot of money in difference. Unfortanetly, summer if upon us and you need to get on the lake. You should take each boat for a weekend to decide! :D

It is not on the Thames. That is where I keep my boat though. There is good place to go by boat at the mouth of the river called Spooters. Lots of dockage, can accomodate 100 footers or something too. Nice place.

The Sandbar is down the coast towards Detroit about 15 miles from the Thames I think.

MooseKnuckle 06-05-2002 02:25 PM

Milord..I know what to basically expect with the 38. Fast and fun, but not a lot of room once you get somewhere.

With the formula, wife will be more comfy, and me at night in the queen size aft cabin, plus baby will have more room. The formula does run in the 50's

Milord 06-05-2002 02:31 PM

Well, I just looked at pics of the 37SS. That is a pretty sweet boat. Man that would be a tough decision. I only run in the 50's so you could still keep up to me! :(

The room would be nice to have sometimes. You are getting the best of both worlds with the Formula. Hey it still has a Fastech hull right? :D

B.R.S. 06-05-2002 10:37 PM

Hey James
I will be splashing for the first time on Fri night after work. I may even cut out early. I will be out on Sat and Sun.

Bill272 06-05-2002 11:48 PM

We'll be out Saturday and Sunday.

Milord 06-07-2002 08:40 AM

Anybody else? We'll be out both days. 519-355-4087

St. Clair
 
I'll be out Saturday. Only problem is I'm in an 18 Donzi so getting around the lake can be a tough task. I normally put in at the Clinton River and head over to Strawberry, Gull etc... If anyone heads to Gull and you see a white and red 18 Classic, come over for a beer. Randy

HP-J 06-07-2002 09:26 AM

Milord,

I might be out there on Saturday. Is that your cell number you posted? I haven't met you guys yet, so this could be a good chance to see some faces. If I'm out there, I'll give you a call.

Milord 06-07-2002 09:32 AM

HP-J, ya, that is my cell. I was down in your neck of the woods on Wednesday at the Sandbar. Lots of nice scenery that night! wow!

Give me a shout and we'll hook up. My boat is at Lighthouse Cove.

jr 06-07-2002 10:35 AM

I might be out Sunday, if Jeg's comes through with some parts. The boat is pretty scanky though. I haven't had anytime to clean it.

turbo2256 06-07-2002 10:50 AM

I will be out this Sat also in my 25 Agressor

BoatChic 06-07-2002 11:27 AM

BRS: call me, me and the girls will be out Saturday probably at Gull.
