The Fun Governor:poopoo: is off doing family stuff this weekend, so I'm Free and Easy for Sat. & Sun. Anybody going to be out running around?:boat:

ttt

Man am I gonna have to tell her about that...lol

Wish we could come over there. Daughters birthday party this weekend. We are still thinking about Labor day weekend.

Shhhhh! Keep me in the loop for Labor Day, we don't have anything planned. I hope the weather holds out, going to be nice this weekend.

I'm going to head out tomorrow.

I am launching at noon tomorrow at the Clinton River launch and running up the middle channel to the St Clair river to the St Clair middle ground to hang out with some friends from Port Huron. Then I am running back to the Clinton river.

I'll be out about noon, see ya at the moot about 1.

Did you end up getting a slip for Labor Day? or just gonna wing it?

Not sure what we are doing yet.

John come down to Lake Erie i am going to be at the sandbar with the huge 16 footer tomorrow Ed

u goin out tomorrow (sunday)?

Sorry,I was in bed by the time you posted. Then I forgot to give you a call. That's what happens when you get my age, CRS !!!
Going out next weekend, I will make sure I call you so we can meet up.

ED, I would like to get down your way some time for some boating. I'm working on going to Cumberland, see what I can work out this week.

No problem just got in about 930 tonight. Last two days went out running around with another tantrum off OSO. Next weekend may not work might be goin upnorth. Heck I'm off 2mro but need to get some stuff done at the house.

Hey Mike, I might be going out one day this week to test some props, not sure what day. I'm not sure I can get the props yet. Let me know what your doing this weekend.

Looks like we will be out of town this weekend at the family cabin. I'll give you a ring if plans change though. Id like to try a 26, 26, or 28p prop. I've got a 29p on it now, seems a tad big

Lsc
 

Gonna be at the Muscamoot or Gull around one.

We are going out Sat. & Sun. Going to Browns for lunch on Sat. About 11:00 AM, then to the moot after lunch. Give me a call if your plans change. If we don't see you , have a good weekend.

John, were out of town. May come back sunday so Monday might work for boating on our schedule. Have fun this weekend heard the weather will be perfect!

Mike, as far as Monday goes, we are going to wing it, see what the weather is going to do. Let me know if you are going to get back in town.

Hi John, we are done for the season. Blew a drive on the way to PIB last week. I left the boat in wyndot and jump on are friends boat and keep going. Now i just need to save for a new drive for next year.

If the weather holds up I will be on the Moot Monday with my yellow Donzi.

Very sorry to here that, I have been very worried about my drive. It has been on the boat for over ten years. I put a larger engine in last year,I've had my fingers crossed that it will make it through the season. But I have really been easy on it, I think I have only run it hard three times. Once for helicopter photos, and twice testing props. Just want to make it through the rest of this summer, save some money up and get it to Mr.Gadgets this winter.

I will kep an eye out for you, I know your boat. If the weather holds out for Monday, We will be between the culvert and house, it's a little deeper in the bay. We normally don't tie up in the line. We will be tied up with a few other offshore boats.

Sounds good. I don't tie up in the rows either. I will probably anchor just south of the line.

It is my first one since I put the 598's in so not to bad. It does not help having the 5 blades on it.

Ten years with all the different motors that is great. Looks like some one knows how to trottle.

I think it's more being lucky, a 598 is what I built for my boat also. The torque this engine makes over the 540 that was in it, is what worries me about the drive going boom. Back in 1999 we had a blown 540 in it. That thing made 941 HP@5800 & 900 TQ, on pump gas. Smoked three drives in 17 hours, kinda took the fun out of it for a while. Thank God for Boat US Towing, was almost $500.00 each time we would have had to pay if we would not have had that towing.

Bring that thing out this weekend and play i put a little 588 in the velocity last week for loto we went there and did the speed runs it dident run to bad 103 at 6800.
Or give me a ring we will have the cruiser at poor mans this weekend garys got my number.

Hey Gary, I heard about your running Loto. Running good, good job. I talked to Frankie Monday about using one of his props to test, they are to small. Do you have a 27-15 3 blade I could try? My boat does not like a 4 blade, rides like **** in the rough with a 4 blade. Maybe we will see you this weekend.

Ill be out also sat sun and hopefully Monday if the weather holds

John that was me in the white cat on sun that was about 115 when i came by.

Ill go to shop tomorrow and see if i have a 27 i think i do.

I know JohnAT and myself will be at Browns on Labor day about 11 or 11:30, then to the moot after that.

I saw you waving, I didn't have any oil temp yet. We had just left the launch, not that I had anything for you guys, but I still like to play. I met your racing compadre at the launch this morning. He had drug in a log, I went over to help him pull it out of the water when I noticed he had one of your racing shirts on, nice guy. I will call you Monday on my way to the launch.
Thanks
John

IDK if I'll make it now. My guest bailed at the last minute and everyone else has plans. It would kind of suck heading out alone. Brown's & then the Moot sounds like a good plan though....

Hope you can make it, Brown's was packed today. We even got there before they opened, lot of Bloody Mary's being served. We ate there on Sat. also, we got there after they opened and we were the only boat for quite a while. If you can't make Brown's we will be between the culvert & house in the Moot. I'll keep an eye out for your boat.

Still thinking on it. Monday is always a little slower. Sat & Sun are the big party days. Memorial Day Monday was in the mid 90s and the Moot was packed.

The weather is going to be Mint, I'm heading out to the shop to button up the boat, jump in the shower and we are outa here. Hope you can make it.

Mike, we met your parents at the launch last night. Very nice folks, that's a nice Excaliber he has also. Hope you can make it out today.

The boat is hitched up and ready. Still not sure of plans. When I'm alone I can vest up and run as hard as I want to so I might make the run up the river to a nice beach north of Port Huron where there are always plenty of hot women. Looks like I'll be hitting Lake St. Clair anyway though!

Saw the " Man of Steel" OL Cat making a fast run down the Detroit River yesterday to just past the Ambassador Bridge and then came back up the Detroit River and into Lake St. Clair. What a great sight, seeing that monster with its rooster tail going for a Sunday cruise in front of Downtown Windsor and Detroit.

Thanks, definitely his pride and joy!! Yea, he did mention that to me today, small world! We got back into town a tad bit late, things didnt work out in order to make it out today :/ Weather was perfect for boating too! My other buddy with a tantrum was out today as well...blue strip on the side of his boat and purple swim plat. Looks like the weather may be slowly dropping by the end of the week.
