Its finally done! All thats left is goin to pick her up. Its in michigan, I leave sunday nite for the 3000 mile trek to bring her back to Grand. I'll have her out for Memorial Day, should be easy enough for all you guys to spot, and as always stop by for a jello shot!

We will be down this weekend. Either on Slim or the Carver.

waterboy222 05-18-2007 10:54 AM

no, that was the most yellow they had.:chick:

Now i just have to come up with a name for it. I had picked out EXCESS COMPLEX but everyone said it sounds like i have more than one complex..hahah.. One guy even suggested "the banana hammock".. i smacked him for that one..

waterboy222 05-18-2007 10:55 AM

You over at Arrowhead yet? Waterboy, you're at Arrowhead correct? What dock? We are now on Dock A. Maybe we'll get to meet up at some point.

The Carver is over there and Slim will be there this weekend. I have a slip but no boat to put in it and I am not moving it now that it has sold. It will sit on the lift until the guy comes to get it.

Did they get your lift installed yet?

jayhawk261 05-18-2007 12:58 PM

Haven't bought one yet. We are still trying to get that part worked out. We're not ready to put it on a lift yet anyway. I am STILL waiting on my steering kit. Fingers crossed for next week! We are going to bring our dock box down and get it set up. I never did ask if they have showers for the docks down there. I'm sure they do. Have you seen them?

gsmith9898 05-18-2007 01:30 PM

how about super sized (mcdonalds).

Do you go all the way in the back to go boarding?
I have to find a good place for my Supra and do a little boarding. I will have to drive from Ketchum Cove.

Nice rig. Lots of yellow on Grand now.

E Dock DD 05-18-2007 05:41 PM

It looks like a started a trend with my yellow boat 16 years ago.

waterboy222 05-18-2007 07:29 PM

I usually ski right in front of lakemont in the shallows. You cant ski past lakemont anymore, they put up noskiing bouys, thats where i grew up skiing!



Jayhawk, Ya, im over at errorhead in the D or E dock, i dont remember, its the ****ty ones in the very back of the cove where the bridge goes over.. first docks on your right when you come in.. I just use it as a place to keep the cobalt out of the water and I LOVE the club there.. Ill be at the club saturday nite eatin..

jayhawk261 05-18-2007 10:14 PM

Yeah, we haven't decided if we're going to join a club or not. Arrowhead and Cherokee both look nice. I think Cherokee is a little less expensive, but not much of a difference.

apache21 05-18-2007 10:25 PM

I just got back from the Lake. Still lots of crap floating around in the water. It seems worse around the dam.:(

waterboy222 05-18-2007 11:17 PM

i figured cherokee would be more expensive.. they have a much better pool and better live music..if i had it all to do again, id be over at cherokee personally..i love the crew at AYC but their taste in music has gone downhill.. still the best food on the lake but still no pool that they said they were building...no showers that i know of either..

Referring to their head chef....i can only assume its better than most.. Royal Bay, Ozzies, the Decks, etc. Ive ate most places, maybe im just hooked on their steaks and breakfasts..

you didnt like it?

No showers? How can they have a marina with no showers? The wife isn't going to be happy about that! :eek:

waterboy222 05-19-2007 10:24 AM

dont quote me on that one.. i just havent SEEN any showers.. i usually drive back and forth between the lake and tulsa so we dont really have a need for them...

SR1kid 05-19-2007 05:12 PM

i hear that if your a slip renter at Arrowhead (where the yacht club is) that you can shower down at the shower house at Arrowhead South... Dont quote me either!

zdek 05-19-2007 05:15 PM

It's good to see another yellow boat on the lake! I'm sitting on my new-to-me 272 right now - yellow and black! We'll be down in Woodard Hollow all weekend next weekend! Holler if you drop by.
