I ment to ask you JS, How's the water level up by us?? Lower than usual??? or about average?? I know when I went up the first week of June, It was more like July water level...But sometimes a few inches of rain will fix that..

Not much rain lately and it's dropping slowly. I would say this is about average.

Thanks GLH, for some reason Being in a vast shallow Bay up near JS and Myself, a few inches make a big difference. The 2 weeks I'm up in July/Aug I have to move the Docks out at least twice. If it's normal, I can get to my dock. I anchor the stern, and tie the bow to the dock so I can get in. But if we end up with end of Aug/Sept water levels. I have to swim to the boat . After going thru the bridge, you can't tell, or doesn't seam to be the same affect....

You may want to double check that final stop.

Frank,
Wondering how many mules it would take to portage a Top Gun to Hadley Pond.

What's wrong with Hadley Pond.

I've been watching this thread for a while and it sounds like it should be a fun ride! I expect I will be out there to see the parade. It should be quite a sight for these parts.


Frank,
Looking forward to runnin' with the big dogs.

Kanook,

Hey! I get an extra 3 miles out of those jugs!

Just make sure your impeller stays in one piece and doesn't make your water pressure gauge do a disco dance again!

Matt,
Check your PM box and thanks for any help. You should spring for a membership and post pics of that beautiful Nordic! Engine bay shoots also. /// update since PM is out for a month here is the message Matt;
Matt,
I have talked to your manager about the gathering at the beginning of the boating season he was all set, you might want to update the number of people to about ~70. I don't need anything special from you guys except maybe a microphone. People will run their own tabs.
However I did talk to the a Marina Manager about two weeks ago a gentlemen named Tim I think he was manning the store in the evening around 5 PM, I have his name at home I currently am at work in NH. I think he was one of the two brothers or something that run the Marina. And I did tell him about the need for parking ~30 Boats around 1 PM August 2nd he mentioned that he was taking notice of this. This concerns me a little Matt and if you could look into this for me a little I would greatly appreciated it.

Nice to meet you Matt and Love that New Nordic your running around the lake on, nice paint job. (I assume that is you).

I'll be sure to say hello next time I'm at the Turtle or if I see you out their.

G.L.




Kanook.
Look at it this way your fuel tank will last a lot longer now that you have old reliable pushing the rig instead of that Procharged monster. Darn rods!!!
