Block Island Run 8/27 - 8/28!!!
 

Okay, since the summer is rapidly winding down and club doesn't seem to ever organize anything, I thought I'd throw this out there with plenty of advance notice...

Weather permitting, we are running over to BI Saturday morning 8/27. We'll stay the night and then head back Sunday afternoon.

It would be nice to get several boats together to run and raft with. Planning on hitting Ballards, etc. This probably would not be a trip for the kids! :eek:

Rain date will be the following weekend.


Who's in? :drink:

ehhh im out scot. sorry buddy, i have a jamaica trip planned for that weekend.

Sorry to hear that (but I understand!), see if Nate would be interested, we'd love to have him come!

I was tossing around the idea of hitting the races in Patchogue, LI that weekend.... but this sounds more fun!!

Scot come me in. But i hope its not the same weekend you commited to Wicked Showing in Hartford, Marissa will be pi$$ed. Ill check the date.

Hope not too, if so I'll pay for the tickets and catch it some other time. :party-smiley-004:

BTW, get Gerry and crew in for this as well, good times! :D

Ill see G tonigh and run it by him but pretty sure he will be surfing thru and see it.
-Mike

Im not in the club but that is my birthday weekend, might plan around a little B.I. trip

Sounds good guys... I think Pat is in as well.


I'm also considering heading to Montauk and staying at the MYC the following weekend (9/3), so keep that in mind as well. Really nice place and a couple of great spots over there. I'm told it's crazy for the holiday weekend so I might look at doing this and making reservation(s). LMK if you guys are interested and if so I'll start another thread....

Summer is slowly winding down, and I'm not going out without a bang... unless my boat goes 'bang' first, haha!

I'm in

Scot, contact Jeff, I think he may be interested in a good bang before summer ends! Hahaha :lolhit:

Thats when my Wicked tickets are, 8/27.

Where would people be staying and how much are the rooms. I might be interested in something like that...

300-500$ are rooms...if you can get a room. I stay on the boat, screw it..

Nice avitar Patrick! :evilb::evilb:

Thanks bud! :hitit:

Image i think Im going to the show but wont stay over head back that night and hit the ocean the following moring. I can leave port and be in block 1:15 doing 55 @ 3800
-Mike

Mike, have you kicked it in the ass yet? How fast have you gotten her?

65@ 5K. I go from 3800 to 5k in literally no lie a bump up of 1/8th or so throttle. i need proping bad.
-Mike

Call Brett at Bblades. He can usually tell you what u need and how fast you will run right on the phone!:eek:

Chris, I was planning on staying on the boat.

Agreed. I did everything over e mail with him. He got my prop right the first time.

I used the calculator 28 bravos 5700 is 81 with 650 a side
-Mike

The tachs literally swung faster than the throttles lol. Sounds sick when you hit it at 3500 and it goes right to 5100 but doesnt pull past 65 mph. So yeah Mike call Brett so i can use the 25s for my low output 454s lol

weather dependant i'm in for sure

F@cq I think I have to go to a wedding in Mass that weekend. I will confirm, then cry.

Stomach flu! :drink:

After meeting so many great people from the RI/MA area at the Fall River Poker Run, I thought I'd bring this back to the top to see if those folks would like to join us for this GTG at BI. Our group will be running from the Old Saybrook area of CT, but that's not to say others couldn't run together from RI/MA are. Hopefully you guys can join us as it's sure to be a good time!

Assuming there's room, we'll all hopefully be rafting together inside Old Harbor and hangin at Ballards for part of the time. If there's not room in Old Harbor, we'll be bringing the party to New Harbor... :drink:

yeah IF you can spin that big of a wheel it takes toqrque to spin the wheel HO is just torque times HP

That thing sounded pretty healthy but its a heavy boat too. Try those worked 26's first.

Its a dry weekend right no drinking????:eek:

let me no were you guys are going to be i might take the ferry over and hang out if you guys dont mind

man just looked at the calendar I have a closing on a house on the 29th!

weather better be good I cant be getting stuck there.....

"is this known as the I pick things up and put them down GTG!"

"I move boats with MY MIND..."

OR : The Hans & Franz " Pump you up GTG" :party-smiley-004:

scot and mike in thier last TV appearance later they went on to do the movie TWINS. LOL

In a sad turn events both turned to bad addictions, one turned to cigarettes only to run 43 MPH at poker runs.

The other bought a big dollar OL only to leave it home and run 43 MPH on hans cig due to the expense of towing and fuel.

Its a typical sad hollywood story:kiss:

WOW! Sick and Scot will LOVE this post!...........Especially Mike! Hahaha

Hey Jeff I could run 30 mph but I can tell you this, When you and I pull into a Marina they only reason to look past my boat is the fact the screwed down clear Kite on your deck would have them in aww. But i guess in your twisted world you would see that as a complement.
