That was one great day, really enjoyed it!

I stopped at just about all the no wake zones....

What happened with the guy down river who appears to have lost his trailer on the ramp? Hitch snapped?

Felt bad for him...as it was pretty brisk coming back...

Thank you for trying, we truly appreciate your effort, if everyone in attendance shared your attitude this conversation would not be needed.

I'm only unhappy with the flagrant violators, sorry to hear you had trouble but happy you were able to salvage something of a good day.

Not 100% sure there, lots of folks at the ramp wanted to help, but I'm told he preferred to do it on his own. Some think he dropped off the ramp and may have had an axle get wedged between the concrete strips.

On another note, who was the guy in the Yellow/red Sunsation?? He ran both ways with us and has a ton of pics.
302sport, the turbine Nor-tech was incredible. We watched you start up and leave from the gathering and its was impressive.

No wakes don't apply from Oct 15 to April 15
Just like red traffic lights are just the same as a yield sign from 3 am to 5 am
