All those bikinis and no "wardrobe malfunctions"? Amazing!!
Or are those in the other section?
Anyway Frank, looks like a great way to save gas!

I think we're going to some beach in Ind. on Sat. Not sure which one, maybe Miller beach. Rick's got the GPS coor's already programmed into the GPS. Said somethin about some channel you go down to get to it??? I don't know, never heard about anything like that before, could that be Burns ditch??? Then sunday back to the playpen for another party.
If the weather cooperates today, and I finish everything on the Fountain, I'll have mine out this weekend too. Is'nt there an air show out there somewhere this weekend??? If so, can you get to the beach???

If I'm out sunday, I'll be at the playpen... Been hittin it pretty hard lately, I think I need a one-weekend break from all the work associated with getting this thing in the water.
Might go to North Ave. Beach to do a little recruiting. Who knows.

That is some very, very high quality punani. Bravo!

Yes....the "Smell our Gary-Air" show is Sat..practice today...we'll be out at Wells St. beach...first bit of sand past Gary. If you guys are heading for the Ditch...BE CAREFUL!!! It is extremely shallow at the entrance...I ran aground there earlier this year right at the entrance and in the middle of the channel...Hammer jumped out and pushed me to deeper water. Saturday looks to be a wash...but we may be in the pen on Sunday.

I don't know of any beaches up the Ditch.
Right now they say Lake Michigan is 7" deeper than last year at this time. mainly because of all the rain in June. I had no trouble last weekend, maybe I got lucky.
I know there were a couple of "slides" on the backs last fall with the rains in Sept, that caused a sand bar at the point where the Ditch widens out just before the outlet. There was a petions over the winter to get it dredged again. I don't think anything came of it.
