Genius! Since most of my friends have them they will hate me for this. LOL. All in good fun...

BlueOval 05-11-2012 09:16 PM

Got the 38 wet tonight for the 2012 season! AWESOME night.

AJ POWERPLAY 05-11-2012 09:57 PM

That was dedicated to Dominator Scott and Beaver Retriever... :D

Bob- Hell ya, we'll get together on charlevoiux soon... If that isn't how you spell charlevoiux I don't care LOL

BlueOval 05-12-2012 06:30 AM

Charlevoix is correct, but I don't care and it grinds me when people correct my spelling.Going back out today.Need to get some gas, far out!

Is your 290 gone and are you now boatless and on the hunt??
Give us some details man!

Yeah AJ,

What's the deal? Hope you're not secretly negotiating on a Sunny:lolhit:

I found a nice 380 for you, even with a fairing!

After being in the Kidd's A/T you must have the boating fever!

BlueOval 05-13-2012 08:39 AM

Friday night and all day yesterday. Get Mom some brunch and off to the lake again!! I hope today get to the 68 degrees:)!

specialk 05-14-2012 09:07 PM

As do I. I need a good full day of boating. Even though we really didn't have much of a winter, it sure seemed longer than normal. I can't wait to the rig wound up this weekend.

I've been prepping the boat all week!

That's right Mike the 290 is gone... Went down to Ohio! I went and looked at a 33 PowerPlay but just haven't made a move on anything. Thought about buying another Z06 also since I have enough boating friends to be boatless for the season. The basement also wants some attention so we'll see what this year brings... Just hanging tight for a little bit

PROWRENCH 05-16-2012 08:24 AM

Someone needs to get their priorities straight...

AJ POWERPLAY 05-16-2012 09:01 AM

Maybe I can pick up a second job oiling wrenches at a certain auto shop for extra cash...

Good idea young grasshopper, good idea!!!


Oh....and congrats! (I think...)

PQ260SX 05-19-2012 06:41 AM

Higgins was great yesterday! I was one of the only boats on the water. Who, in Michigan, is headed out today to enjoy the far above average temps?

BlueOval 05-21-2012 02:51 PM

AWESOME weekend of boating!!!

THE 288 KID 05-21-2012 03:25 PM

Tore up lsc Saturday and Sunday. Got 90gps with 3 people and half tank. Thinkin 92-3 might be in reach.

Didn't relize exactly how awesome this boat was till we got into some chop and it ate it up without a doubt. Pretty good feeling when you got a 42' fountain owner on your boat complementing the ride of a 33'.

What's your official review on the 300 PROWRENCH?

PROWRENCH 05-21-2012 04:36 PM

The 300 is one fine machine. Definitely head and shoulders above the 280 for sure. It rides great and feels pretty nimble. Didn't have any real serious waves to test it, but yesterday would have been fairly rough in the 280 and the 300 barely noticed it. Still have to figure out Tom's secret to that magic 80 mark though. I only got 73 out of it with a full tank and 2 people. The speed was climbing slowly, but I don't think there was enough lake to hit 80, and Torch is 20 miles long. I'm hoping that 700 lbs of gas will make the difference, but we'll see I guess. The tattle-tale shows 82, so I just have to figure it out.

Pwraddr 05-21-2012 06:22 PM

I went out on st Clair Friday and Saturday, awesome weather!

AJ POWERPLAY 05-21-2012 07:23 PM

Hang in there Adam, the trimming seems to be different on the step boats... I'm sure you'll be over 80 in no time

73??????????????

82.2 was the best I ever saw on that boat..used to get 78-80 all the time no problem...

now get back out there and make it happen!!!!!

THE 288 KID 05-22-2012 07:21 AM

Looks like uncle c has talked me into coming out this weekend to the chain and leaving the a/t at home.

Dennis, please have the Cig ready for my complementary 100mph+ ride. Thanks.

Don't get a head of yourself boys with the Baja. I have to start you out slow. I think the kayak will be a good start
