I don’t ridicule- I’ve been tore apart here because I said mead has 10’waves - which it does- but then I get made fun of and laughed at from the “experienced guys” who obviously know nothing.

I might be new But even I know that the rangers use buoys - lol your comment saying that was their opinion and not measured with a scientific device??? God are You really that clue less? The park rangers have weather buoys all over that lake that feed the park rangers real time data by the minute, they then write the conditions down on a Grease board so that everyone is aware as they come in. This isn’t their opinion this is SCIENTIFIC FACT! Your fake news, spreading misinformation. You should stop that,

Well guys I’ll bow out of this one. Looks like California has gotten to your admins brain. If your ever out on Mead in LV and you see the white AVS skipping right along the 3-5’ers that me. Try to keep up and come say Say hi.

I did call Archers, I am buying the 43LS, Thanks for all the good information from the guys who were positive and helpful. When it gets done it will be my New Port rig for weekend trips to Catalina. It’s going to be an awesome build! Can’t wait to share it.
If you want to see rough water come to LOTO this coming weekend. 2 fun runs going as well as the Trump Parade on the water. Its going to be stirred up pretty good. As far as keeping up, That's a bold statement to throw out there. Just so happens there is going to be a Active Thunder 33 Evolution by the name of REMEDY running in the Waves and Wheels fun run. Come on and run with me there and I'll even pay for your gas in the run, if your so confident in your skills.

My issue isn't so much with the wave heights, more so that you say that you can run at speed in 5's without throttling or using tab. I have owned 8 boats and have hundreds of hours behind the wheel in the great lakes and have run with a couple 33 AVS. In legit 3's , they are out of the water more than they are in.

Settle down boys. So the dude put a little gravy on it. His toe went over the line. Wasn’t it not long ago someone was complaining about not having enough new members and the site was getting boring. Let it go. Let’s have fun. I’m all for busting a dudes balls but do it with a little respect. Don’t get pissy if the guy feels like he needs to defend himself. He’s obviously a little thin skinned. We can all work on that.lol.

As far as weather reports go. Well who’s been out on blue bird sky days not a cloud in sight and all the sudden you get a turd floater! It’s happened to everyone of us. It’s nice to know you have a boat that can handle what’s thrown at it. Just my 2censts. Now someone post a video of some nasty weather boating.

well idk what to tell you, but I’m all gods honesty that’s the truth. I have many friends and family that will support this, as they have seen it first hand.

Strike 2........

Like I said, I really could care less whether Mead has 10's or not.
What I do care about is members being respectful to other members. No one here called you a dip****, moron, or any other insulting name.

If we didn't already have a couple going with us that would be ok with me. It should be a fun time there. I believe it's around a 35 mile run one way, so that will be pretty awesome and should have great go pro footage as well.
