Default Couple Smoke on the Water questions...

I'm planning on going up by car Friday night just to check out the boats, then hopefully I'll be in the vicinity of the Holland card stop in my buddies Boston Whaler so I can see some of the run.

What time does the run itself start on Saturday? I believe the Holland stop is in the morning...any guesses as to what time the boats will be by? Also, what about South Haven? Do the boats get the SH cards out on the lake or do they cruise down the Black River?

Donna - pm me your cell number so we can hook up Friday night.

Any T-dockers making the trip...pm me some cell numbers so I can meet you in South Haven if I'm not staying in Holland.

Later kids, and thanks in advance.

I finished my exhaust set-up so I did not have an issue. I installled new pneumatic cyclinders and ran new lines. Taped water lines to dump into my 14" down pipes which mix into a baffle. This made it quiet until I blew a triple thick flap off of the muffler. This happened on the first day down. Some guys were real load and I did not see anyone getting pulled over.

Why don't we plan something Friday, like Margaritas first (what was the name of the Mexican place we were in last yr Dyno?) and then more drinks at Kirby's.
I wanted to have a party by our boat, but Marc is having trouble getting us our own slip. If you are not in the run you should plan to check out the docks on Friday night, everyone is pumped up then, after the run some boats are broken and some pull there boats.
