Hey Tank,

Sorry we missed you out there this weekend. I saw the 33 Eliminator and the Cafe Racer a couple of times over the weekend but was never close enough to head over and see if you were on the boats. Let me know when you're going to be heading out again. I think the next trip for us will be the Catalina ski race in a couple of weeks...

I’m proud of myself for figuring that out (actually someone else did, but at least I posted). Wish I had known that was you with Havasu Cig, would have introduced myself. Tanks fault.:D He told me that was Havasu Hangin. I didn’t get it straight until later at the Sandbar and you guys were already up river. Next time.

Yeah...............thanks for the invite guys. :D :D :D :D :D

Are there guys out there impersonating me?

If so, there's gonna be big problems...;)

:D

Oops, that post was meant for the Semper fi thread about his X girlfriend.

Tank, UT,...

Nice seeing you guys out there..the Cafe Racer looked great when you guys were running as did your Eliminator UT. My passengers wanted me to hammer down and race you on the way to the SandBar UT, I had to explain to them that you would hand me my ass (they are not boaters).

I have a little gel repair to do after the run in with the Essex. He is lucky to be alive after the dip**** pwc like turn he did on front of me. We will definitely have to hook up again.

Tank,
It was good to meet you also. Your buddy's Cig is real nice. We did have a good time last weekend, next time we'll all have to hang out together.

Uncle Toys,
Maybe we'll meet out there next time. I'm over the X girlfriend's B.S. I'm sure that won't happen again, or I will personally deliver the person an ass kicking.

S&R....Would've loved to hook up out there.....I was on the Cig most of the weekend you shouldv'e come over and partied with us. Oh well, next time brother.

U.T.....I did not say it was Hvasu Hangin man (Miracle ear!!!:D :D ) But whatever, you figured it out....FINALLY!!

Nort....Um, let me think here, what is a good responce to that....Oh I know....BLOW ME!! You missed a good weekend. We didn't get in on Sat. night until 5 am...we did it up your style:D :D :D

Havasu cig......That little crash couldv'e been alot worse...just be glad no one, especially on your boat;) got hurt....Ask Douggie fresh about people hitting you in havasu:eek: :rolleyes: We'll have to get ou there again soon and party with you and Semper.

Semper fi.....Bro, UT told me about that post crap while we were in Havasu, I looked for you to tell you about it but we didn't hook up again...anyway man we need to get back out there and do it up again;)

Tank

Tank ........ you make me proud. Next time....no matter what...I'm there!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Tank you get the new ride back yet?? INQUIRING EYES HAVE TO KNOW!!!! :D:D:D

Jon, yea, it's back...Just ran it for the first time today! Those dry gils sound frickin awsome!! and the blower whine....SWEET!!:D I'm just breaking everything in slow, so I don't have any real big news or anything. But it went good today. Missed you in havasu bro. Hope to see you out here again soon. You coming for the catalina run? Poker run? whens the next trip?

Tank

Uncle Toys,
I gotta see your new hot-rod boat. It sounds pretty sweet. We couldn't stay at the sandbar last weekend. It was too crowded to find a spot to anchor the Cig at. That frigging thing just gets taken by the current and the wind unbelievably!

I just had to put in another post just too see me new "signature" at the bottom. Isn't that great!!

Hey HavasuCig and SemperFi .... I don't think I saw one Essex running off the SoCal coast last weekend. If the ocean were my stomach, I would tell you "GET IN MY BELLY" ... :D

Havasu is cool, but, DUDE .........

August is going to be a good month for SoCal offshore:
POPBRA Offshore Race in Huntington Beach
Catalina Ski Race in Long Beach
SCOPE Poker Run

Your right bro, but we have the house out there and it is usually a good time. We definitely plan on some more offshore running as soon as the gel is fixed. We want to run to Catalina since we did not stay very long during the poker run. :cool:

It's tough running to Avalon during the summer, usually no moorings available. Steamin'Rice said they ran to Two Harbors and there were moorings and a shuttle boat. Nothing to do in Two Harbors, but, hey ... it's a destination. I haven't seen your boat in the water yet ... looking forward to it.

I went to Avalon from Newport a couple of weeks ago....As Cig1 said, there were no moorings available. I think that there is a place to anchor at Avalon that isn't too deep, but it was about 250 feet deep where we were at and we met up with some friends that were going to Two Harbors so we went with them.

Two Harbors is at the North end of the Island is is smaller than Avalon. They were out of moorings also, but there was a reef to anchor at that was only around 20 feet deep so it was pretty easy. A shore boat took us in and we hung out there for the day. There's a small beach, a restaurant, a bar, a small hotel (8 rooms or so), a general store, and not much else there but it was still pretty fun. I didn't see the big tour boats at Two Harbors so it's a more mellow, local type of place than Avalon.

One side note, we ran into a huge group of Dolphins about 10 miles outside of Newport.....There were probably over 100 of them all around the boat which was pretty cool. We ran into another group of them about 5 miles outside of Avalon.....Definitely worth the trip.

A Catalina run in Sep could be fun....

Tank. I am glad you have the boat back and I can only imagine the grin from one ear to the other that you must have had the first time you started that baby up!!!! :D:D Make sure that they give you the proper start up proceedures so you do not blow any power valves or anything. AND be safe!!! :D:D I was hopeing to make it out for the Catalina and Scope run but I am going to have to pass. I am going to be working my azz off on the boat trying to get it ready. My bro just told me we have a wayz to go on the flat work before prime. I hope that we can hit prime this week and paint the fallowing weekend. That would be nice. Money is a factor now however so we will see.

Jon

G$$, you missed a good trip in havasu bro! Where the hell were you???

Jon, be patient brother, it'll all come together....I waited since last nov.....It was worth the wait! I ran Norts 28 pitch 4 blade on my boat today and it ran killer!! Only took it up to 4200 RPM for a few, showed 4 pounds of boost, don't exactly know the speed though, I think it was right around 70 though....Anyway, get out here when you can.

Tank

Tank - Havasu Cig, Cat, Hangin, come on bro, I only missed it by a couple of letters. You got to cut me some slack - I'm old:D :D
