Pretty damn sure I saw Gary today . . .
 

Beautiful day for boating today in SoCal . . .
< see attached crappy pics >
1. 'Launching' my boat from HydroHoist boatlift. This is just how it's done. 'Launching' being the operative word.

Re: Pretty damn sure I saw Gary today . . .
 

2. The Yardhouse . . . Gary's boat, and a 38 Hustler.

Re: Pretty damn sure I saw Gary today . . .
 

Wasabe - there is plenty of it out there. Just go get some.

any nibblers on yours yet LS?

Had two people look at it Saturday morning. One was semi-serious the other one..Well...It's hard to tell. :rolleyes:. The serious guy is an airline pilot and flies F-14s. Let's keep our fingers crossed, becuase it's time to move up! Both people told us that the boat looked much better in person than in the pictures, and were very impressed with its condition. We have 17.5 hrs on our new motors and they run like a new Rolex. Do you know anyone up your way who wants a real nice Gun? Comissions will be paid!

Was that you that pulled in on the 32 Fountain? I was riding on the Huster. We launched my boat and my friend Chris (OSO Sweeng) from LB and went to Newport to rack my boat, then we headed back to LB for lunch. A cruiser pulled out and a Fountain pulled in. Must have been you! Sorry I didn't get to meet you......

That woulda been me. . . still is, I guess.

Re: Pretty damn sure I saw Gary today . . .
 

Awesome weather and great water conditions!!!! Newport to Long Beach in 20 minutes!! That Hustler really handled the water nice. Never been on one before and it really rode nice.

Re: Pretty damn sure I saw Gary today . . .
 

I don't know about the others. But with the Hydrohoist, it's something you got to see to believe.

Re: Pretty damn sure I saw Gary today . . .
 

Anyway......yes, that was Gary's F2 boat. The was a Cig a little behind us that our friend Mike just got. Twin 1100HP motors on the boat called "Come Fly With Me". He just bought the boat a couple of weeks ago and yesterday was his first day on it. BAS ASS!!! Where are you keeping your boat on a lift? Huntington Harbor?

Re: Pretty damn sure I saw Gary today . . .
 

Yeah, I saw that other Cig - just couldn't frame it into the pics with the other boats. It used to be a lot easier before the 're-structuring' of slips at the Yardhouse.

I keep my boat in Huntington Harbour. Walking distance from my house.

Hey rouxsterre, good to meet you.

It was a beautiful day ... challenging waters ... warm sunshine.

We (me and a BIG power TG) had a great run from Newport to LB. The ride back was really fast and fun.

It's going to ba a fast summer.

We saw that Gary guy too....


Saturday was great...great water!

Re: Pretty damn sure I saw Gary today . . .
 

Same here, Gary. I woulda hung out a little longer if I knew you all were leaving so soon. . . oh well, next time.
It was kinda funny out there Saturday. 2-3 footers were a little tighter together than normal, combined with the wind, making some surprising holes here and there. For me ( 32 footer ), the run back downwind was MUCH faster - it was easier keeping the props wet.
That's the plan

Most Fountain's sit a little low in the rearend but that is serious!
