Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

that name fits you perfectly.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Wally I likes its alot :D :D

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Much better than your second choice...DAILY ERECTION. Maybe that was the reason for the distraction in the meeting??!! :evilb: :evilb:

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Your bad. :p

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

I like the name Wally. Whats Brad think?

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Premiums !

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

I cleared it with the old man before I shared the name.

Its a done deal, got all winter to figure out the graphic.

By the way, when I was at SIU we had a school paper called the Daily Egyptian.....which we all called the daily erection.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

When I was at WIU my girlfriend (now wife) would take care of my DE's. Now they might as well be semi-annual! :( Wally blames it on her boyfriend at McDonald's but the neighbors keep asking if I traded my truck in on a new white GMC...

Thanks again to Wally and Dave for making the last outing a great one. Hard to beat free gas and beer. And thanks to all of the Dock 3 regulars, Rich, Scott and Hills, etc. for allowing me and the family to raft off this year and have a blast at the lake. Already looking forward to next season.

Scott, Hills might warm up to the cat a little more if you promise it will sport a swim ladder! :drink:

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Next season there might be a twin engine minimum :eek:

Or at least put a blower on that motor. Then you might get 60 out of it. Of course your throttle man will probably be able to get 70. :D

Mitch sent me a note tonight to start working on the paint. Hopefully we will talk sometime this week.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

I think she is afraid I'll put it on its top or run over someone up here on one of the smaller local lakes.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

That would be a bit much for our local pond. Nothing wrong with the current boat.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

OK, Don Johnson. :rolleyes: :p

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Don doesn't need a throttle man - he drives with both hands on the steering wheel. :evilb:

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Twin minimum, and blower minimum, COOL I'm covered :D

John lets see some ideas on paint so we can all help you with your decision

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

The sad part is if you put it on its top I'll probably be with you :eek: , and if you run over someone, well they should not be in our way :D

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

It'll be us single engine, non-blower guys that you would be running over. :eek:

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Or that will be still be right side up - saving their butts.

Scott - want some lifeline vests?

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Leaving for the plant in about 30 minutes for a visit tomorrow. Last time before the molds get made - the schedule is set for the glass shop to shoot the molds.

Talked at length with Mitch yesterday and he is starting some renditions for paint. He said he should have some within two weeks.

I went over budget on everything else so I decided to just put a couple trolling motors on the boat. :D

I will probably post some new pics over on the 43 thread Sunday.

One of the topics for the meeting tomorrow is another discussion on hitting Miami. I want some of what they are taking.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

If I buy a cat, Lifelines will be on the boat.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Got one last run in yesterday. Put in at Havana and ran up to Pekin, down back past Havana to LaGrange, and then back up to Havana. 140 plus miles. Great weather...72, sunny, light winds. Saw no fewer than a dozen of these...

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

you suk..........

Did you notice the trooper behind me when I passed you this morning? He got to follow me all they way home :eek:

Its amazing the fuel mileage I can get at 60!

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

I disagree. A 100mph cat boating on Clinton Lake in the wrong hands could be a problem. With Scott operating the boat it would probably be safer than me driving the 65mph Checkmate. Wally, back me up here.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Yeah, I noticed he was tailgating you.

My mileage continues to go downhill on my truck. Checked the injector balance rates with my programmer and I have 2 injectors out of spec. It was just in the shop and they said everything checked out fine. Now I have to figure out a way to tell them all is not fine without tipping my hand that I've been running a performance tune.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Perhaps I am trying to live vicariously through Scott. He is single, no kids and likes speed on the water. A cat on Clinton Lake would fill a void. Unfortunaltely we will not be buying a cat anytime soon. However, Scott is the right guy to have the cat on our local pond. He's responsible, seasoned and has a great looking (also very capable) navigator that wears a bikini. That's an appropriate cat owner if I have ever seen one.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

huh.....I have never seen his brother in a bikini :eek:

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Nothing compliments a bikini like a set of beads...

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

I'll see if I can find a pic...with some of the past parties, there's probably one somewhere! :evilb: :evilb:

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Thanks for the compliments Rob, I'm still looking for a throtleman, though. The search for the ever elusive cat is still in progress. I don't know if I want to see Scubasteve in a bikini, but if you think he looks good in one then that's you're opinion!

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

What happened to Hills? Where is the Sunsation Avatar? Scuba can keep his clothes on, but Hills in a bikini never scared me away. Give us some specifications on the cat you are looking for and we'll help you with your search.
Rob

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Hills is still around. Maybe I could teach her to drive, and I'll throttle! I'm thinking the cat search may be a drawn out process. I need to talk to the builders, dealers, and current owners of the boats I have in mind. That's one reason why I'm probably going to the Miami boat show in February. The other reason to go is to just walk around and drool!

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

You will drool a lot. You should go to the water site and try to get some rides.

I'd love to throttle a Cat at some point. The new place at LOTO is only about 2 miles from David Scott's place. Maybe we could get him to give some tips.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Yeah that'd be rough!!!

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Dave could probably show us a thing or two!

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Ask Mental about his neighbor that we met last weekend. Let's just say John will be dialing 867-5309 quite a bit when he is down there.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Jenny

Oh yeah - I guess that was ELAINE. I told the wife about Ron and Jenny. My only hope is their kids use the place without mom and dad. I can already imagine what a great impression we will make on them when the Captain grabs the better side of our common sense.

Oh well, life must suck when you take it too serious.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Maybe a little Central Illinois influence will loosen them up a bit! :drink: :drink: :drink:

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

I can see their reaction the first time we take a leak off of the deck facing them. "Ron, why doesn't yours hang out past your zipper like Mental's does??!!!" :evilb:

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

I'm sitting here laughing my a$$ off. She would probably look to see if there was a toilet down off the deck. I just know I am going to get caught doing that.

Or I can just run a hose down with a funnel at the top. Guess I better start looking for a shade to pull down on that side of the porch. They did not appear to be the kind of folks that will be down there all the time. My bet is they are only around 3-4 times a season.

Wait until I put my internet camera off the porch so I can zoom in on them, and folks in the cove that think they have privacy.

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

John this sounds like you are going to have lots of fun with your new neighbers :D You should have all of the yahoos down when they are there and really impress them :drink: :drink: , Its your dock if you decide to use it as a pee pad thats your choice. :eek:

Re: Name Wally's Boat
 

Hey John, impress your new neighbors and put a porta-shizniter on your dock!
