Gull Island Thursday Night
 
Ok guys, the weather looks good tonight. Who all is going out and what are you driving so we can hook up.

I may be there, having carpet installed today some time, and if they are done on time I'll head to gull!!!

There should be a mostly white (some purple at the very rear by the transom) Fountain Executioner-no beak. Fastest v-hull out on Thursday night (to date)

The "Wild Child" will be out next week, after the drive is fixed properly.

Milord 08-08-2002 01:32 PM

Well it doesn't look like 2 many people are heading out tonight. The Thoroughbred I was going in has a drive stuck in forward and a fooked up starter. So I think I'll skip and hopefully it will be fixed for next week. Maybe more people will be going next week too.

Frank that Fountain is sweet. Some up at St. Clair this weekend and out at Gull last Thursday. What is he running? Is he faster than Wild Child?

Next Thursday I have a wedding rehearsal at RoosterTail. Maybe I can pimp a ride from the docks? LOL :D :p

Don't think I am going to make it out there tonight.

This is a little of subject but was anyone at tin fish last night? There was a really big fountian (at least 40, 47 maybe?) there that was running really strong. Does anyone know what it got in it? Also after reading alot of the Apache post on OSO it was nice to see my first one there last night. I can see why everyone thinks there sweet boats. Is there any history on that boat? How many Apache's call L.S.C. home?

Hey Rerun,
I've seen three Apache's on the LSC.
a 36, 41 and 47 called Broken Arrow with triple 1100's

rerun 08-08-2002 03:18 PM

I wonder which one I saw. It was hard to get a good look at it cause the way it was rafted. From what I saw it had a huge indian head with the headdress going all the way back painted on the side. Do you know how fast any of those boats go? I did get to see it fired up and take off. I'm only on the 8th page of the Apache post and I already want one.

Fast Frank 08-08-2002 03:38 PM

Hey rerun,
Broken Arrow runs around 95-100? I raced him in a 85 mph Fountain i had and he beat me. His name is John,I guess he bought the Apache molds, lives here, also owns an all white 36 Skater (if that tells you anything about speed) Builds some boats here and there?
There was another 47 running around called Kimmosabe (sp?) Really cool paint as well. Also had triple 1100's supposedly ran 110-I raced him in a Fountain i had and beat him (i was running 97)

Big powered bigger Fountains-3-47's w/ 600's, 3-42's w/575's and 600's, numerous 42's w/twin 600h.p. + motors & triples

Won't be out now-going to the Cleveland races/poker run, don't know when/what/why or how yet.

Scarab P-29 08-08-2002 10:22 PM

did I miss much? any racing?

Gary864 08-13-2002 10:10 PM

Last Thursday
 
I was at Gull and nothing to race. I did race a Sunsation but he was nothing. I won't be out anymore as I am on afternoons. P-29 I saw you comming out of the clinton river a few Saturdays ago and ran you for awhile

tmager 08-13-2002 10:41 PM

That Sunsation wasn't me, James....I will try to be out there this Thursday, though.

Gary864 08-13-2002 11:47 PM

the Sunsation was a 32 with 496's in it. Was not a match for my 500's.

Scarab P-29 08-14-2002 06:13 PM

gary864 witch boat was yours? did i give you a good run? the saturday before last i ran a boat about 38-40 foot couldnt figure out what make it was but it handled the water well was that you?

Gary864 08-14-2002 06:48 PM

I have a 34 phantom I ran accross the lake with you. I had 3 people on board. That was the Saturday of the Parade of lights.

Scarab P-29 08-14-2002 09:42 PM

that was a good run i enjoyed that! your boat looked real good out there i thought it was bigger the way it handled the water. Iam in the market for a new boat and will look into one how do you like it?

Gary864 08-14-2002 09:49 PM

it's great
 
When I saw you I was over proped. I hope to have it solved by the weekend. If you like the Phantom looks you should go for a ride. It should radar just about 90 with the 500 in it, just the way it comes from the factory. I may be out there after all this week. I was told today I MUST go to days tomorrow from the President of the Company. I gotta love manufacturing, last week I was told it would be 1 1/2 to 2 years before I got back on days. Guess when I told them I would have to seek employment elsewhere they believed me.:)
