I will take a look at the link.
Thanks

Its exit 100 off of I-95, Route 272 East to NorthEast, Md.

The Northern Bay is mostly fresh water fed by 5 Rivers, the Upper Bay is an incredible spot to boat, great mix of everything. Anchor Marine has a great launch - Golf Carts to run you back to your boat or Rig when you pull, fuel and the Nauti Goose Restaurant and Bar is right there.

Great people, easy access and good times hope you can make it. I am hoping to be back on the water then, had some slight catastrophic parts failures, that I am addressing...should be back and getting wet by the end of the month or so.

Any direction questions shoot me an email - I travel the East Cosast for work, I know virtually every way to get from point A to point B - pulling a boat.

Danny,
Thanks looks like 300 miles. Im in Watkins Glen, NY. I would need a close place to sleep over, and might bring my son he is 9. But may get a sitter for the weekend. Depending on what you think the dinner would be like, would it be appropriate to bring a kid? Or is it adult entertainment? Will there be other family's or just adults? I need to see if I can free up a weekend, and if I want to truck the boat that far. Do you have a permit for the event? I am wondering about noise ordnances.
It does look like a fun relaxed event which might just fit the bill.
Thanks

We don't need any permits. He sets everything up with the marina and restuarants and once the heli shows up we roll out. Nobody enforces the noise ordinance. You would most likely enjoy yourself more without the young one...both during the run and after. This place is a couple miles from the marina and is where alot of people stay.....http://www.holidayinn.com/hotels/us/...ET/hoteldetail

...any news Don?

More testing today, we made a 1/2 spacer so I could test a wider range of props. we had to do some custom work on the coupler between the SCX and SC, IMCO does not make any spacers beside the stock one for that combination. so we had to make one. and modify the 1/2" spacer plate to work with the -3 lower. Its always something..
I have a long story to write on how good the soft touch rev control works on the MSD digital 7 plus... But am too tired now. You can guess....
Good news is the boat house is almost done, I have a 14' row boat in it, no motor. I just get in and paddle, pretty simple. Push the remote and it goes up and down, maybe I will put a big screen in the gable end and a sound system. A few recliners in the rowboat and I will be all set. O and a tap system with lines that come down from the roof so I dont have to get out of my seat. Maybe watch Pegged (a great vid on poker runs) and pretend I have a 175mph Skater or something. occasionally grab the oars and pretend I just passed that Skater... O man I need some sleep..
Good night

I know its been a while but the marina is hopping not much time to play. I did a small poker run last week put 3 hours on the clock 5 people in the boat full of fuel. It ran really good, waves were 4's most of the day. I didn't run over 85 and that was near dusk and the lake was calming down.. Most of the day was between 30-60. Here are interior pics, I took yesterday. I have not tested it below 3/4 tank everytime I go out I fill it all 90 gallons. I am running at best 5700-5800 rpms, I make best HP over 6400. I am holding up dialing in the prop and the final tuning to see if I am going to keep the boat. I may have it sold, if so the motor is commig out next week. and going into a cat, well thats happening anyway. I am closing on the cat soon. Anyone want a V10 625hp Ilmore with 100 hours on it? I may keep it to have around or might sell it. Ilmore said its worth 20K. I am going to look around and see what is out there to get an idea of price.

The wooden blocks under the seats come out but are great if you are short, lol.

Don, boats looking great! Nice talking with you today. Hope everything works out with the cat. You need to post a picture of the paint job with the perls.


Looks like you have a water leak under the speaker starboard side inside your cabin

Nope there is a cutout to do the rigging on that side and they covered it with the carpet and it just looks darker, that is a hole under the carpet. the other side they covered wth he yellow plate. Thats the way I got it and didnt feel like doing anything with it yet. Not that It needs to be fixed.
Yep the boat is about done, time to sell it pull the motor and start another project.
Good talking with you too. BTW the Ilmore is 260# lighter than a 600 merc and 4.5" longer same width and stringer setup so it will fit.... Let me know if you want to give it a test ride before I pull it out..
