I was out there coming back from Leamington!:D Great water all three of us (offshores) had smiles on our faces when we got back to Sandusky:D
Mary and myself had to work today so we thought we would stay away from the Bay even though it was killing me to drive right by:mad:
My only problem coming back was trying to save Mary's ribs (had to run a tad bit slower than I would of liked to).

BTW Tomato Fest was canceled :eek:
The Beer tent washed out:eek: :eek:

Thrillseeker,
Enough is enough lets get that boat working right! What do you need! We have a lot of people in the area to get you going again! Call me or post something!

THRILLSEEKER 08-18-2003 12:56 PM

We'll get a few more in B4 the snow flies !!!!

BUSTEDGUN 08-18-2003 05:02 PM

Hey LJ, Easy on the "crew picking" statements!

The majority of the crew did just fine. Although Karen wasn't feeling to good. Might have been the frozen lemonades and beer?!

All said and done it was a blast. The ride home ruled!!

Thanks again Jim and Mary, maybe someday I'll get to run my own boat.

It was great to see everyone this weekend!
I need to dry out for a couple days.

Madcow, you left before we woke up. I figure you had to go home to take a shower. You couldn't have had any quarters left!

LEOPAJM 08-19-2003 07:35 AM

JM

BUSTEDGUN 08-19-2003 07:53 AM

I Very much would like you and Andy to take her out and give her a good whippin!

We have to also get it propped right since we gave her a little more juice.

I woke up Sunday morning an I thought I was running a refuge camp!:D I guess in a way I was. GREAT time this weekend. Too bad I didn't get to see JD & JM. We doing it again this weekend? Probably can't get another hall pass though.

BUSTEDGUN 08-19-2003 10:05 AM

LJ, It has 24 bravo ones on it now.

Greg has a set of spare 26's for me to try. I am wondering if I may need a little more, Because greg can run his 26's on his tiger with 500's? hmmmm

Andy also has some hydromotives for me to try as well. I wanted to get all the testing done before I pick it up so it's ready to go.

OUCH !!

With family like that who needs...... :eek: :D

Here they are in a "closer" moment

Scott 08-19-2003 10:19 AM

What upgrades to the original power are you planning on?:D

LEOPAJM 08-19-2003 10:34 AM

Scott .... Heard thru the "grapevine" Dan is secretly putting a set of Sterling 725 / XR's that Lipship had from a Gladiator they sold with out power to LOTO !!!!!

SHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!

Karen doesn't expect this ... it's a surprise for her Bahtmizfah !!!!!!

JM

BUSTEDGUN 08-19-2003 11:03 AM

Gotta love that Sterling Power BABY!!!!!!!!


Should be able to get 108 - 109 out of her, watch out WickedWon!!!!!!!!

Of course I probably won't run that fast , I don't want to break my breakfast bar apart, and the built in cooler, and the head, and the.................you get the point.

Thanks LJ, great way to give the ol' rumor mill a swift kick in the azz.


Scott,

We are actually bumping the compression, bigger cam, and some carb work. Just a little massage.

Dan

LEOPAJM 08-19-2003 11:15 AM

" .... ran her up to 103 !!!! But she had more left in her!"

Dan ,..... are yours XR Bravos ???????

BuzzinBye! 08-19-2003 08:35 PM

LJ,

Karen saw your post, and she wants to know just how you know so much about bahtmitzfah's???

Are you a "closet" jew?!?!?!?!?!


Dan


PS I have bravo performance drives. (standard low water pick-up) not XR's

LEOPAJM 08-20-2003 07:23 AM

OK Dan .... I'll check the shelf and see what I've got for props left .

Shalom !!!!!

LEOPAJM 08-20-2003 07:26 AM

BTW .... are you sure those standard Bravos will handle the new powerplants ?????

Maybe you should look at Bmax or maybe even doing a total rerig and go with Arnesons or Pulse drives ?!?!?!

JM

Scott 08-20-2003 07:42 AM

This is getting good:D
Not to insert the knife any deeper but did you have enough run time to determine the props you have now will need changing.:eek:

BUSTEDGUN 08-20-2003 07:44 AM

Am I SURE??? Hell no, but what's the worst that could happen?!?!??!!

I better keep my right arm in shape just in case my sled ever decides to leave the water.


Or I have a buddy who has some extra Berkley Jet Drives laying around????? What do ya think. At least I would have a roost tail. All boats with rooster tails are faster right?????


Dan

LEOPAJM 08-20-2003 08:01 AM

Thats what I've always been told !?!?!??!?

THRILLSEEKER 08-20-2003 08:11 AM

YUP! just ask Team Baja:D

Danny Usnik 08-20-2003 08:17 AM

If you use the trailer switch you can get a great rooster tail.

It sure sounds faster that way.

If you can't go faster at least sound faster.

Just ask Team Baja.

WickedWon 08-20-2003 08:21 AM

Hey guys, it's WEDNESDAY time to sober up:drool: :D

BTW maybe Dan could make an offer on the 525's coming out of the Dragon ? ooops

JD

BUSTEDGUN 08-20-2003 08:46 AM

Scott,


Ouch! (picture me pulling a knife out of my back)

" is this knife yours"

But your answer is no i really don't have enough time on the boat. or do I have my new GPS or a working speedo.

But greg can flip 26's on his Tiger with stock 500's and I only have 24's on my boat


Dan

LEOPAJM 08-20-2003 09:20 AM

...Please don't squeeze the new Charmin !!!!!!!

TEAMBAJA 08-20-2003 10:06 AM

Yes, my rooster tail remains a mystery, but it makes me look about 30 mph faster! :D

Madcow 08-20-2003 01:28 PM

If your looking for props Dan, I have labbed 26 4 blades on mine you can try.

BUSTEDGUN 08-21-2003 07:15 AM

Thanks Jim I really appreciate the offer. But I have some spare 26's from Greg that I can try.

Dan

Scott 08-21-2003 07:21 AM

We need to start a new thread!
"The Busted Gun guess the pitch and win a ........"

:D :D


Any plans for Kelly's ???

LEOPAJM 08-21-2003 07:29 AM

Win his old Props !?!?!?!?!

BUSTEDGUN 08-21-2003 10:38 AM

You guys are KILLING me your so funny.

Good idea for a contest though.


I was hoping to have the boat for labor day weekend, but I am confident I'll be disappointed. Kelly's would be a great place to "re-debut" the boat

Dan

TEAMBAJA 08-21-2003 10:45 AM

THRILLSEEKER............. I just nominated you to become the moderator for the new BAYLINER section thats supposedly coming soon! Congratulations man!

Like we talked about, if you work hard, one day you just may own the little 19' open bow you have been dreaming about!

THRILLSEEKER 08-21-2003 02:54 PM

:eureka: maybe as a moderator I could get a factory discount on parts for you:eek:

REMEMBER! friends dont let friends drive Bayliners:crazy:

TEAMBAJA 08-21-2003 05:28 PM

I dont need any parts. The RED ROCKET is screaming!

Tell the board what brand of boat you have spent the most time on this summer!

Also......

Tell the board how you screwed up with the milf last weekend, which led to cock-blocking your buddies!

cough.....Cathy.......cough cough!!!

By the way I like the way (styling) you guys added
Saber to your wind screens.

Boats are looking great.
