Potomac River this weekend anyone ?
 

Just curious with the great weather on tap if anyone is going to make a blast this weekend

Still to early for me. Waiting for some of my cushions to come back from PPI. I Im installing the flat panel TV.

Still working on maintenance stuff. I need to shorten the female slip-yoke in my extension box to install the DriveSaver. If anyone has any experience that might help, feel free to offer.

Brad... we went to the lake today. Had a good time, bunch of boats out. I'm gonna wait a week or two for the river to clear some of the trash out. Did you end up going out?

Flat panel is in, it turned out great. The wife waxed the inside. things are coming together quickly

I put in on Machodoc Creek down by BC"s house and made a blast to Colonial Beach and hung around in the creek some. We had a good time saw a few boats out. How did the new 38 do, I wanna hear the scoop!!

Hey Brad. Boat did excellent. I'm really very happy with it. It's definitely not the Scarab for room, but I think where it matters to me will more than make up for it. That Scarab had no swim platform or sunpad, so the fact that this boat even has that stuff makes it feel so much more usable to me. We went out, cleaned the boat up, put some 303 protectant on everything, and I'm really happy with it. All the interior is in amazing shape, better even that my Scarab was. Everything works, but runs awesome. Comes up out of the water fast... probably a little underpropped as it's spinning a little harder than I like. I just ordered some new props, so we'll so how that does.

The boat has the worlds first GPS in it LOL, so I couldn't even figure out where MPH was, so I have no idea what it was running. Kyle and I made a blast up the lake so I know it was north of 80 w/o issue.

Dependent on the weather I think I'll probably take next weekend to repowdercoat some stuff and install the stereo. If you wanna come take a ride in your soon to be boat... just let me know :-D

How'd your boat do? Get the miss figured out?

I changed water /fuel seperator and filter on rear of motor and had no issues at all. never missed a beat. seems to do fine. I do wish I had waited and got a 35'or bigger. I wish I could have got out yesteray eve, the river was smooth.

Dam shame you were right down in my hood and I still couldn't get a ride. THANKS!

All you have to is ask, I never have a problem inviting myself when you take the beast out!! Are you preparing that thing for a splash yet?

Nope not yet. Looks like it's going to be the 24th at the earliest. I've got softball tourny's the next couple of weekends.

I have been itching to get out there. Crossing the Nice bridge a few times a week doesnt help that feeling either. Im still looking at first week of may. Motors still at the machine shop.

what shop is doing the work?

Put the plastic boat in at Occoquan saturday monday tuesday and wednesday, even got in the water (had to pee) Still a fair amount of debris floating around. Should be cleared up in a week or so.
Anyone been south of Fairview?

Old Branch in p.g.

What did you do squat in it? I know you didnt feel the water standing up peeing over the side. Not unless the wind blew some spray on you.:lolhit::lolhit:

I went from Machodoc Creek to Colonial Beach Last weekend, some debris but not bad at all, stayed on the Va. side

So where's everyone going to be headed this weekend??

Your boat after i get off work saturday to drink all of your beer.

Seltzer, you going to have the PlasticFantastic out again? Or your slow boat.:lolhit:

Thats so sad....now even Active Thunders are picking on you!!!What has happen to your reputation??:poopoo::cuqui:FYI....Wayne is bringing the Skater out on Sat. You might want to be in the Plastic Fantastic.

I gonna come out just to see the big DONZI come out of the creek...:drink: then you can buy me a beer or three at Gilligans. I also heard there is supposed to be some good bands @ Hightides this weekend at Colonial Beach.. anyone know of activities there?

High Tides
May 29–30—Get the Led out with Kashmir, the Led Zepplin tribute band!
May 31—Party on the beach at High Tides for Memorial Day.
Tribute band might be good....cant tie up the boat anywhere at High Tides can you?
didnt say anthing about what time this is happening.

You can tie up to the town pier there is a smaller pier attached to the town pier just not much room. Maybe anchor out and walk up?? Thanks for the info

I had the slow boat cleaned last week while i was in myrtle beach. I plan on putting the plastic boat in to taxi back and forth to Crabby Dicks.

As long as Brians big head is sticking up ive got no problem taking out Wayne.

Fitzies. Tall Timbers and maybe Port Tobacco then end up at Gilligans for Full Steam Sat night

Sunday: Maybe Fairview then Gilligans for THE WORX !!!

That won't take long I quit drinking

See post #30

I will be down at Spinnakers in Point Lookout Marina this Sunday. From what I hear Steve has a band down there from 3-7 on Sunday, did not hear the name of the band though.

Dont forget about the free docking if you are going to the resturaunt.

[QUOTE=45sonic;3119571]That won't take long I quit drinking


I dont drink any more either.
I dont drink any less..
Hell im drunk now.....

Seltzer,

We have a band at the house 4-7:00 Sunday, low tide is 4:00, planned that way to keep out out the noisy, filthy drinking boaters, however anyone with large breast that provide floatation are welcome to drift in, we will not tie them up at the dock the way we do a boat. Stop by if you are up this way on Sunday.

we can hit your place before gilligans.

Which day are you coming out in the Spectre which day the slow boat....Thats right they are the same boat!!!!:evilb:

Is that band any good? I think I've heard of them before, just not sure where at..

I heard you had to be a VIP to park up front at Gilligains when they played, unless you are big $$ and have a lift that is...
