I've have an idea to make millions
 
Think we need to make a iphone app that has boat exhaust sound and smell. :) Now that would get me through the winter!!!

glassdave 10-29-2013 09:11 AM

long time ago there was an audio clip floating around OSO of a couple guys running a blown Top Gun out in a rough lake Michigan (i think) and it was all blower whine, on/off throttle then silence and BAM and somebody yelled "now thats a hole" lol made it a ring tone for a while. I lost the clip in a hard drive crash and wish i could find it again.


That would be a good new thread. Post what gets ya through he winter :cool:

That sound clip would be great. What gets me through the "winter" is going out on the boat and the bike. You mean a lot of you don't do this?:party-smiley-004:

I think i may still have it somewhere i just have to find it or get one of my old hard drives resurrected

32 Active Thunder 10-29-2013 09:43 AM

This helps get through the winter!! Members - Wive's and Girlfriend's I'll have to post a couple pics later

phragle 10-29-2013 09:47 AM

No wonder my boats not done...dave is looking for winter ring tones.... The real irony here is that he has to get a phone to live long enough to need a ring tone.. Every time is see the tv commercial with the guy wincing as he slides his finger across the cracked screen I think of Dave... :party-smiley-004:

If only they made phones out of some that's as flexible as lunch meat...

glassdave 10-29-2013 09:51 AM

lol, you havnt seen my Droid lately. Slammed it in the hood of my truck and bent it . . . like bologna . . . . and it still works lol. :D

phragle 10-29-2013 09:55 AM

This is the replacement for the one I watched you kill a month ago??

MonkeySea2 10-29-2013 10:09 AM

I would love that ring tone!!:) The only thing that gets me thru the winter is creeping on this and other sites and hitting the boat shows in January. Just put my boat in the barn last weekend and I'm already majorly depressed!!

I just need to make my compressor sound like a big block. I think with all of the fiberglass work and sanding I have to do this winter on the boats that it’s rattling is the only sound I’m going to hear for a long time.

redwhite 10-29-2013 01:05 PM

Ok....Serious question. How do you guys up north not have snowmobile's to get you through the winter?

32 Active Thunder 10-29-2013 02:35 PM

Oh chit I know that boat its CHAPARRAL2300 boat isn't it ??? Sorry I had to say it :boat:

314joey 10-29-2013 02:36 PM

Sorry guys, but my sound clip is actually getting in the boat and scooting out to the Gulf and head North up ICW to Punta Gorda or South to Naples for lunch, it's hard to beat, have a good winter.

Thank god for FMO

MonkeySea2 10-29-2013 02:37 PM

that's classic!! We have 2 sleds that haven't been out in 2 years! It's cold but the days of a lot of snow around here are long gone. So we only have skiing-----on man made snow!!

glassdave 10-29-2013 03:00 PM

we took it up to a big sled meet / tip up town thing on Devils lake and they freaked over it. Pulled out on the ice with it on the trailer and the guy organizing the drag races came over and said we get the track for a by run :D the thing actually does about fifty if ya let 'er eat lol doesnt like deep snow though


this is oso member "Big Kahuna" lightning jet :D it was first time out with the knee board so we really didnt open 'er up yet lol

I'm not a huge cold weather fan and dont live far enough north to justify a sled that I would "have" to have....so I just sit in a Bar every weekend - cost is about the same as boating in the summer lol

Beautiful so far, thanks bud....did have a small scare on Sunday though.

Ran about 5200 rpms for a fair amount of time and when slowing up to come into docks my alarm sounded and we looked down and the starboard motor was runing wayyyy hot. Shut it off and limped in the few hundred yards to the docks....boat is closed cooled 496's and we hooked up a hose...ran fresh cool water through it and got a bite to eat to give it time.

Ran It out again after though and it was perfect. Not sure if maybe we picked up some sea grass as it was EVERYWHERE that day but we ran it for about an hour out in the gulf after that and it never rose up again.

Hoping to travel down for a FMO run before years end here.

Yup, sounds like you got some crap in your intake, when that happens I put it in reverse and try and flush it out, it usually works, glad everything was OK.

That would be a good new thread. Post what gets ya through he winter :cool:

Hah, I remember that. I have that saved on my old internal hard drive..... I just need to find a plug so I can extract out... Any Ideas on where to find one of those... ?

LubeJobs42 10-29-2013 09:02 PM

Great idea!!

I always thought of coming up with a perfume that smells like race gas. Just think how attractive and arousing our wives would be!

(please don't forward to my wife!)

phragle 10-29-2013 10:08 PM

I love the smell of race gas and Loctite....

kidturbo 10-29-2013 10:18 PM

I think we need to find some good developers to do a realistic performance boat game for the PlayStation.

Then we can all link up, stage online poker runs and races all winter long... :thankyouthankyou:

Once I got a few bugs worked out, it's been super for the past 170hrs. Well enough I'm starting on a twin version to bring down that way and run the islands with.
