Finally got to go out today!
 

Due to my wifes health and my recent spinal fusion, I have not had the boat out since the Shootout 2010. The boat ran freaking awesome and it was wonderful to get back on the water. You dont know how much you miss it until you can no longer go out. A tank of gas later, here are a few pics from the day. We put in early around 7:30am so we beat the crowd. A large time was had today!! :D

Fantastic looking boat (and lady)!

We had a great day too. Not too crowded though, not too sure why, but hey, we'll take it!

Nice boat! I like your idea of "Hydro Therapy" (-:

Nice. Good to see it back on the water.

Thanks guys!!!

It's about time! I've been out over a dozen times. It's a Donzi summer. That 525 that you sold me has never missed a beat! BTW, nice boat & pretty wife. :)

Looks like Gary's old boat is enjoying its new home in the south. Glad to see y'all are able to enjoy it. I'll guess from your location you boat on old hickory?? How is the boating down there. I was in Nashville for business and might return before the end of the summer.
Nashville seems like a great area, curious how great the boating is?

Looking good John!

Hate I missed you guys out on Old Hickory! I was probably in the back of Skinny Dip cove in the Sea Ray... It's hard to leave it at the dock. Hope you guys can make a poker run or two with us this year.

Looks like the king (and queen) is back! How much does a autographed picture cost? (8 x 10) Good to see it on the water again, I heard that there was hundreds of fans at the boat ramp clapping when you fired up the beast! Several just broke down and cried too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chanting... Long live the king, long live the king!
I heard it was a very emotional seen. Haha! Tell Deb she defiantly makes the boat look good, I know that was cool getting the OL back out. Dang, it sure looks good brother!

I saw some boats in Skinny dip, but it looked like they were all cruisers so we didn't pull in. We floated and swam out in front of the dam for an hour or two and then headed up to Gallatin, hung out at Cedar Creek and just ran around. I had not been out in so long that I just enjoyed driving the boat. We rode most of the day just cruising. If I had known you guys were in there, we would have come in.

You are not right! Wait until I post the video someone sent me of you and Pam this weekend in your new powerpaddleboat! :evilb: By the way, autographed pics are $10. :duel:

Haven't got it dialed in yet, my side is a inch from taking on water. Need more tab on port side. Had the top down for high speed, low drag. And give me two pictures too!

Thunderusone, I know you don't know me but we saw you at the 2010 Shootout. Glad to hear your wife is doing better and hope to see you at this year's Shootout! Love your boat.

Hey man! Good to see you out on the water! And around here!

This is MeanStreaks new Offshore Performance Boat.... :evilb: I can't figure out if it is 2hp or 4hp? :D

Thank you 32. I know you have paid alot of compliments on mine and my friends rides. They are greatly appreciated. We hope to be able to come this year. I have my boat running several miles an hour faster than it ran in 2010, but for me to win, that OL that won last year is going to have to stay home. :D If we do get to go, when it gets close, shoot me a picture of your boat and we will look for you at the run. We had an absolute ball when we went for the first time in 2010.

He's ALIVE!!!! Where have you been hiding. :evilb:

You can't do nothing without somebody taking a picture or videoing it. Going to send the paddles to Wilson Custom Marine and have them blue printed to. About 60 percent slip now, loosing a lot on top end.
I look like a monkey sitting on a football in that thing. Right on the edge of sinking.

You gonna run it at the Shootout this year?

Yes, got a house 4 miles from Captain Ron's by road. Leaving early Wednesday morning.

You in?

H E L L YEA! I'm gonna weld a hitch on the back of your Myco. Hook the Outerlimits on behind your new Rocket and Debbie and I are gonna ride in the back of your 650 in lawn chairs. :D

John,

It's great to see/hear your excitement about boating again! I'm sure you and Debbie will appreciate it even more now that some of the health issues are behind you all.

We will have the paddle boat back there, just sit in it.

You need to name it "Peddle Play". :D

How about, peddle streak, mean paddle, paddle up, peddle smack, color me peddle, ez paddle, paddle ace's, paddle your ace off, candy ace.

Gotdam Bubba! You are really coming out of your internet shell!! :D

They call me Bill Gates now, because I'm so good on this i pod thing.
My friends call me B.G., Mr. Computer, Internet gooroo, to many to name all of them. Plus I can't figure out how to turn it off.

A few pics from yesterday. We launched about 7:30am. Had a great day. We rode to the next town north and ate lunch at a marina up there and just enjoyed a beautiful day.

Here are a couple of pics of my Buddy Meanstreaks new Rockit. It is an absolute showstopper!

Now I know why he was giving RB crap about the "fast yellow boat"... we need to get some pics of all of us running together at LC in a couple weeks!

That would be alot of #6 roosters together!

We are in on that, what a great picture that will be. We can get the helicopter to get a shot of all of us.
