Texoma memorial weekend
 

Anyone going to be on Texoma Memorial weekend. Would it be too soon to run a group of boats together?

ask over at www.lakepirateforums.com Some of them were itching to do something.

Hell no - not too late. I'll be there, but not till Sunday (wedding).
But, may have the boat sold by then :(

What did you have in mind? A short little regatta or something, or just a place to anchor up together, or both.

We will be with a group of 5 boats. will be putting in at lighthouse and running to the islands fri sat and sun. thought it would be cool to have an informal cruise or something for a photo op. just got the twins and anxious to run with some others

I put in by Denison Dam. I usually just cruise by the islands. I guess I just got burned out on all the idiots that hang out around there. I can't even relax because everytime I turn around some dipchit is about to hit my boat or run over my anchor. Do you ever go to Sunset Beach. Its just across the lake from the Lighthouse. There have been alot of powerboats over there lately. Its very relaxing and you don't get beat up with all the cruiser wakes and chop that usually beat you up at the islands. Have you been to Texoma lately - the lake is way up. I don't thing there is much of an island left. I know you can't walk around it like usual.

It would be fun to get a couple of boats together and run out in the open. I can do Sunday and Monday. Just give me a meeting place and time and I will be there. Did you know they shut down Grandpappy's - what a shame.

Oh hell - my boat just sold. Guess I will not be joining up with you guys after all. I still have a 04 Sea Ray sundeck I get to drive around so give me a heads up.

you may be right about the islands, may not be much of a party there. if theres no beach it would be better to tie up in a cove somewhere. we will have a 33 powerplay cc, 31 IMP, 27 baja, 23 Nova, 21 sea ray, all putting in at lighthouse or little mineral. we will check out sunset beach. maybe sun we could meet up, you can meet some folks from FTWorth area. I am the only one that lurks around on this site.

Sounds good - I will have a boat load of people in a newer blue 24 Sea Ray sundeck "Kalana Maku." ...........Man I need to buy another powerboat ASAP. I can't decide between a single 28 Saber w new 502 that only goes 63mph (here on OSO) or a 28 pantera with twin 454's and a lot more expensive. What do ya think?

With gas prices I think I need to just suck it up and go with the cheaper Saber or wait around for a single 28 pantera.

This map shows it as sunset camp. Nice little cove with great sand beaches. I've been hangin around there for years.

Ft Worth is my kind of people - I work in downtown

we will be there,31 warlock cat,we dont hang at north island either to many idiots. we usually hang out at the big island closest to the willis bridge.

I like that island as well - lots of good sand. I go out there for the "extended" boat trips. Thats a good boat ride for me but well worth it. Do you drive the blue and gray cat?

I will be out and about. I am planning to get a drum of "good" gas and enjoying the rough water. I will be tied up at "J" Dock, closest to the boat ramp, in Highport.

tp-our boat is white,purple,yellow {called WASTED WAGES}

I will be in a solid white 31' IMP with white windscreen. would love to meet some of you. this is my first twin engine boat and excited to see how much better it will ride than the 24'. we usually hit pompanos in the evenings by car.

come by and say hello

the blue and gray cat belongs to a buddy of mine.

Texoma Memorial Day
 

We'll be up all weekend...not even putting the Cig in until Sunday. Taking the cruiser out to north island on Sat. Also have 2 new Gladiators joining us...let me know where and when for Sunday...not too early:D

So much for the Sea Ray........If all goes well I may be christining a 28 Pantera on Sunday. I may need one of you guys to give me a crash course in driving a boat with twins.

txspeedfreak - you got a cruiser too? Must be nice - that cigarette you have is one of the nicest boats on Texoma IMO.

I remember you guys were always a ball of fun at the poker runs:D

Looks like this may turn out to be a pretty rainy weekend:( :(

Guess I'll just relax and enjoy the view....:D

Hey Andy, U going to get the Pantera??? I sure would like to make up.

Make up?????

I'm working on it - I just got done with the test drive, well I shouldn't say done with - we blew an impeller after about 2 minutes into the test. One of the engines overheated - but it was nice to know all the dumby whistles work:D . Not really suprising considering it hasn't been driven in atleast two years.........:( . But they will fix it (which is better than me) and we will try her out again during the week. I should be able to close on it before next weekend. Although even then it may spend some time in the shop getting her up to shape........ The cabin needs to be completely reapholstered and it needs oil changes, new interior tie bar, and drives serviced.

So yes - as long as I can get a good test drive out of her - I'm taking her home.

hey this is brent ran with you in hot springs me and my wife are wanting to go to texoma but dont know where a good place is to stay can you help / one more thing where will be the next poker run that is close we had a great time last run @M.H
