Cincinnati Boaters
 

Any OSO'ers boating on the river this weekend??

Next weekend, but we're up towards Ripley.

I'm still a couple of weeks from getting out on the river. Boat's at XT-Innovations reveiving a few improvements. Hoping for first or second week of June. Been heading down to Norris to scratch the itch.

I am taking my boat out for the first time but was thinking about just going to East Fork for some testing.

I will be out Saturday around 2 or 3.

If that goes well we may come to the river on Sunday.

Just checked the National weather service Ohio river report for Cincinnati. 5:30pm 30.14 feet and falling . I usally don't go out unless the river is 28 or below. I haven't looked tonight but all week there has been a lot of debris going by. I'm trying to make it next weekend. We are still doing tornado repair so a break next weekend will be great.

Rode the ferry this morning. It doesn't look bad at all. A few floaters (as always this time if year).

Hi, Are you A friend of Tim Brown? I use to work with him. I also have a eliminator. Maybe will see you guys on the river.

Yeah, sure am. He is my neighbor. We boat mostly at Cumberland but i will be boating on the river/east fork the next two weeks before we take the boat to the lake. What part of the river do you boat at? What kind of Eliminator do you have?

As of Thursday 17th USCG Division 5 district 8 Eastern-"Water temp 66F River stage 30' Flow rate 2.6MPH River Debris is Low as viewed from Downtown Cincinnati!
Good enough for me!
Baja 342 where in Norris do you go? We will be there next week! We have a floating house at Springs Dock!

Sometimes we go above the dam but usually we go to Schmidt field. I have a 25 Daytona. We also go to Cumberland.

We put in at Schmidt also when we go to the river.

How long have you had your Daytona? I bought mine a few months ago and will be taking it out for the first time tomorrow. I am really looking forward to it! This is my first cat.

Good luck on the first trip out! I got mine in 2001.

Good luck Chad im interested to here how that thing runs!!

Thanks guys. I will let you know how it goes.

My parents have a place and a boat at Twin Cove. Water has been great down there for as early as it is. Been swimming in the lake for a month already.

You're a ways from us. We run around in a pontoon with a 150 on it. We rarely make it past Sequoyah. The 342 is a little overkill to haul down there.

Tim

Swimming for a month!! Great! First trip down next weekend!! Had a buddy at twin cove it is a haul to our end!!

Be aware of this. May want to cut over 25.

"TDOT hopes to reopen both northbound lanes and one southbound lane by May 21".

Let us know how it goes Chad. Talked to Tim last week and he said you had it all together.

Baja 342 I did hear that, my parents have been down the last 3 weeks, i usually get off at Jelico, and run that right to light 9 in Lafollette, and then down to the dock! Gonna be crazy on the holidays through there though!

I wont be out this weekend. Putting the drive on sunday and cleaning it up for next week end. I hope to be out Saturday and Monday. It should be us and an all white 42 Fountain my buddy just purchased.

Its been a long process and i'm glad it's coming to an end. I cant wait to sit back and relax on the boat. I m ready to get down to the lake with it.

Hey is this fast freddy?

I dont know about fast but its freddy. Is this Terry?

Well Chad how was it today

I just pulled in the driveway.

Looks like i need to have the carburator looked at and the timing dialed in. I was not able to get it on plane until TMAN showed up. When trying to get on plane once i got to 1500 RPM it would try to die. TMAN came on board and throttled through it and was able to get it up.

Once we got it up on plane it ran good and fast! I am going to call Clyde(my boat mecanic) and see if he can come out with me and try to resolve these ploblems.

I was also worried about what prop i would need but it looks like this 28 pitch will work for now.

yes

I can tell you East Fork wasn't bad on Wed. for testing. We took my Scarab out for a couple of hours after work to tune my new motor.

I know this thread was about last weekend. Is any body going to be boating on the ohio near cincy this week end or is everybody heading to cumberland or some other lake. We will be out Saturday and Monday. Probalby near down town or at least hanging out at the Ludlow Bromley.

Cumberland for me.


Still smoking, which scarab is yours? I live very close to east fork.

Norris For Me!

Cumberland.........:daz:

Should be 2 of us.

I thought i would be the only one on the water with everybody going out of town. Fasthawk where do you put yor boat in at? I will probably put in at riverside on saturday and maybe tanners creek or riverside on monday. If you see me say hi I will be the guy in the old junk fountain.

RacinFever will be on the water!

Blondes Preferred is staying in town this weekend. Will be at the yacht club Saturday.

Hay Steve! we will look for you.

Mine is an all white 29 I am your friend Dave's buddy also. You and I met last year at the river fun run I was riding in my dads 311 Formula.

We are heading to Cumberland tomorrow afternoon. Staying at Grider and can't wait to get away!!

I'm allmost ready to get wet

Should be up in town by 1 or so sat . 2 sunsations
