:rolleyes:

traviss didnt start early enough and dont have enough hours:rolleyes: damn this boating stuff is addictive:D

BTW I thought that I was the only young punk around here:p

I brought the Top Gun home from LOTO April fools day:D

and have run a little over 70 hrs so far this season. I am very pleased with how reliable it has been.

:D :D :D

Cord has all kinds of hours on, in, under, in front of, and behind his boat!! None of them IN the WATER though!!

I started in May, got ONE mile and then decided I needed to go faster than the 7 cylinder big block would push the boat so I rebuilt. Have 35 trouble free hours on it at this point, which is about half what I usually run. Damn economy and pricey fuel!!!

april, 70 hours, and I'm a young punk too:p

Early May, 153 hours.

Memorial Day weekend and about 65hours on New motors. :D

January 1st........don't know how many hours. :D :D :D

Hey Norty, on behalf of EVERYONE I would like to say:

BITE MY ASS!!!!!

And don't forget to wash all the salt off your boat. Fresh water rules!!!!!

Actually since May, with about 50 hrs. (not enough):mad:

Liquid asset, winter dosent suck ya just gotta go where its warm:D Key West is a nice change from Ohio:p

I usually have my wife launch me on New Years day at Lake Mead and take a hot lap to the dam and back, then put it away until around the Easter (spring) break. My last trip of the year is usually a run up to Temple Bar Marina and Restaurant the Saturday after Thanksgiving for a greasy hamburger and beer. It doesn't get any better than that. As for hours I can't tell, I've changed boats a few times...

Boating since March and have 113 hours. I have gone out every weekend and completed 3 poker runs thus far. In terms of miles my GPS has recorded over 2200 miles and that accounts for about 70 of the total 113 hours. BTW, still going... and going and going... :D

Started boating in May.
Put 6 hrs. on the WETTE VETTE and a couple hundred on the pontoon. :cool: I guess I'm getting old and only require some adreniline maintenance from time to time.

Last weekend in April.
52 hours.
Probably 10 -20 more if the weather holds.
Usually done in early October.

Early July for the Thunderstorm and I have put about 25 hours on her.

Can't remember...
 

Been so busy with new house/new baby that I can't remember what day we first got out. Sometime in May, I guess. Couldn't have put much more than 10 hours on it since.

cpqtim - 153 hours? Must be nice! I guess I'll have to live my life vicariously though you from now on. Weren't you out in April for Thunder?

Started in May this year. Don't know hours this season but my scan tool says I have 87.8 hours total. (I bought the boat new in September 2000) Lets see...I drive the boat to the beach...about 5 minutes...I drink beer for 4 hours (minimum)...I drive back to the ramp...5 minutes. Damn! That equals two thousand one hundred and seven hours of beer drinkin in a little over two seasons. :D :D :D

End of April.......38 hrs. so far:D

WELL,,,,,,,, I hope to START boating laborday weekend !!

I have about 30 seconds on one motor on the floor !:p And I hope to add about 10 more minutes to that tomorrow so I can tear it down and retorque the heads and finish the other motor ....

Just about to get started boating ,but I got alot of catchin up to do !!:D

Hey Puder , When I get it going , your invited !!

i am takign you up on that offer heli might drive to NJ and help you finish that thing just so i can get on the water!!!!

Started the last week of April. Put about 50 hrs on the Pantera and about 15 on the Baja.

Hey Nort, it's just terrible that we never have to put our boats away! January 1st for me too. More than a hundred hours. :D

I started in April, but I've been doing alot of work on my house at Lake Cumberland, decks and new garage etc, so I think I've only put about 30 hrs on but I will make up for lost time over Labor day and the Poker Run

:D

Puder.. You can go with me. I've only got one motor, but should pull us around OK

This year early June, and about 12 hours. Last year Mid Sept, and 5 hours. Pretty sad huh!!

Our hours are the same as Nort's.:D

Take heart though, it was March 9th before the water was warm enough to get in.:)

Late March...................74hrs

We boat all year long down here, I would think the winters are better then the summers, not to hot!:D

i started in the middle of May
have 50 hrs before the block cracked mid-way through July
good news is i'll be back out Saturday to log more hours
:D :D

Russ

LOL!
thnx to turkish mechanics&boat builders!:mad: :mad:

Started in early May probably logged 30-40 hours on other peoples boats(thanks guys). Got the Checkmate back and running in late June and have logged exactly 40 hours on it since..

Just turned 322 hours last weekend. Stated the season on the 215 mark 1st week of April after getting the boat back from the dealer. They kept it for the winter to give it it's first season once over. I brought the boat home 26 June 2001...:cool:

I didn't buy it to clean it nor just sit and look it. Too much money to not spend every spare moment of the summer weekends in it motors running....:D

We had a cold start to teh season this year. Didnt start boating until May. I have logged about 86 hours this year so far. My goal is to break 100 with out break down.:)

I'm with the Budman new Baby keeps me in port alot...lost a week when the mains took a **** in the port engine I'm around 25-30 hrs....talked to a friend with a new Master craft ski boat 400Hrs since may 1 !!!!!thats in Michigan!!!!!

Started the day after Christmas with the new boat. Currently at 85 or so hours not including time on the Nautique pulling the kids wakeboarding, time on the waverunners, and time on the pontoon boat when the phucking starboard engine blew up.

p.s. Hey Too Old, how many hours you got this year?:p :D

Jan. 17 splashed the boat for the FPC Hawk's Cay run.
65 hous since! I would highly recommend this run for anyone looking for a nice getaway in Jan.

Well, Let's see...bought this latest boat in March of last year...Been boating almost every weekend ever since!!:D :D
