A Weekend On The Waters
 

Well it was quite a boating weekend.

Saturday, we saw "Man of Steel" (38 Top Gun T/S) & "LIVINVIP" (42 Tiger).

Sunday, we ran up to Boca with "Cash Bar" is his 38 Top Gun. We hooked up with "LIVINVIP" Rafted off in Lake Boca, ate lunch, went for a swim.

Here are some pics.

Man I am jealous. Sounds like you guys had a great weekend. I can't wait to get back on the water in a "go fast". The CC is fine and has it's purpose, but 40mph gets boring after a while! :D

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

Runs like a raped ape. He let me handle it in the ocean 3-5 footers and pounded threw them at 75 MPH with throttle left, just AWESOME. Those Cheif engines are just the best. Runs good, sounds good, looks good. What more could you ask for? :cool:. What a great boat. I'm jealous.

Damn that looks like fun

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

Very nice, looks real fun!

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

Rafted in Boca on Sat. for the first time. Nice place. Met a few friendly folks (and a boat-load of, err...nice young ladies). Will anyone be there next weekend (Memorial Day?).

Got pounded hard trying to run out Hillsboro on Fri. (broke some stuff in the cabin), but wasn't too bad on Sat. I guess us lightweights gotta learn to take it or wait for calmer seas.

What boat are you running Danny?

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

I have a 26' Corsa Martini with a single 330/454 TRS. I believe my total weight is 4500 lbs. 0' ~ 3' seas would be ideal. It was 3' ~ 5' on Friday. Loosened a lot of stuff, including the fillings in my teeth. Got air on one wave and thought I would never land. Felt like slow-mo suspended animation (until I landed...then felt like hitting asphalt).

Is it red?

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

We may Be there Monday,

If I get it back together by then!!!

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

D.Ocean- I will be in Daytona this wknd., But I will probably make a habit of Lake Boca.

Victor(LivinVIP) and his crew are all very nice, and The Lucky Strike Crew is beyond reproach.

LS- Thanks for the good word on my boat, I know how I feel but you always wonder what others truly think.

Greg that thing looks great Congrats again.

Who owns that Orange 42? Looks good, I think it is the one Randy at Lake Cumberland had for sale for a while. Got any information on the guts of it Bobby? Or even more pics, your not usually shy of taking pics!!!

Thanks again for the pictures nice to see someone boating that did not receive 3" of rain overnight!

Yes sir! It was at Lake Cumberland Marine. It is a 2000 Tiger with 500EFI & XR drives. Extended Covergirl. It belongs to "LIVINVIP" on the board. It is EXTREMELY CLEAN. Pics? What are those? :rolleyes: :D :rolleyes:

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

GLH, That is from Lake Cumberland.

I did not see the Cabin, But the Cockpit is very first rate. Nice details(orange,yellow,prpl.) in all the right places.

Can't post pics, but the SUNPAD was VERY nice. Got it? Good!

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

I guess we are postin' in real time!

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

LSjr, I just realized you edited the pics while I was typing.

I thought I was imagining things, seeing a different pic the second time.

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

I love those nice sunpads.
Specially when they have nice humps because they are blowers... Got it? And, "It's all good!"

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

Hey Greg-

The first shot I sent you (your boat alone) from last week needs to be your avatar!!! The first pic I had up I had in the beg. of the thread. ;)

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

GLH, thanks for the comps on my ride. I hope to catch up at a run in the near future.

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

Hey LS, how can I make it my avatar?

Remember, I is computer I literate.

Re: A Weekend On The Waters

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

No...original color scheme...predominately blue hull with red & white stripes. Deck is white with red & blue stripes. No "disco" stuff here...clasically "old skool".

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

uh oh,.....I see a little hull cleaning action there :drool:

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

Unfortunately, I cannot have a lift where my slip is located so the boat must be stored in the water. I've painted the bottom since that pic was taken.

Hi GLH,

Thanks for the compliments on the Tiger.
You have an awesome Tiger as well !

My sunpad blowers are very practical.

They are mobile and be used on the car, motorcycle or
even around the house.

They had a service last year with new bolt-ons !

How often do they need a total rebuild ?

Have Great Day !

Victor

P.S. L.S., Mrs. L.S. , L.S. Jr. and Cashbar are a fantastic group !
Let us know when you are coming to Florida and we will have
your Southern Tiger detailed for your arrival !

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

Victor,
Thanks for the compliment also.
Rebuilds on those Blowers probably depends on how much boost you run thru them, but if they were serviced last year I'm sure you will get years of enjoyment out of them. Just make sure you don't neglect all the other parts that need your attention.

Hopefully cya next winter in Feb. Watch that Bobby Kid he's a mean throttleman, plus he knows how to handle lines!

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

Are you going to bring the Tiger down for the winter? I'm not gonna toot my horn too much, but I do know how to get some big air...Just ask OTIS311 :D :D

Victor-What's on the agenda for this weekend? Sunday? Monday?

This pic was taken on the way back from Monty's...Had to slow down so LS could take the pic :D :D

LS JR.

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

GLH -Thanks for the Blower service advice !

I may see you on Lake Champlain before Feb. in Florida
I will be in Montreal & NY between June 20th-29th.

I have a Baja 252 Boss in Rouses Point, NY.
I usually shoot up to the Naked Turtle to see Matt
and Sonny.

I will email you when I know which day I will be
on the lake.

Bobby's World - I would like to plan something for Sunday
and Monday. Sunday I have friends with a Sunseeker and a
Sea Ray that would like to meet up with us.

There boats should make good Anchors !

Just call me Friday or Saturday.
Cashbar will also meet up with us.

Victor

Re: A Weekend On The Waters
 

Sounds good. I'll call you Friday or Saturday. I think Cash Bar is going to Daytona??
