Outboard Skater Brothers Outboard Trip Welatka
 

Just wanted to share with you guys and say Thank You to Jim and Patty Kirkland for being such a great tour guide this weekend. Our trip to Welatka was as awesome as Jim said it would be! :Score-101010: This would be the perfect place to have a outboard get together! Especially for all you guys scared of saltwater!!!!
We really need to plan it. We will definitely be going back. :ernaehrung004:
Here is a short video I put together. All his friends were awesome and had one DW Papa's Pillar boat there as well.

Thanks Jim, See you in Sarasota soon! :boat:

Great time, a lot of fast cruise, Very cold water, great friends.

And my pics are not upside down :)

Glad you had a great time, looks like a very nice collection of boats there but you lost me at cold water. I've been accused of being a little girl but until the water is at least close to 80 it aint no fun for me.

Hey I know those boats....... the cowlings all look strangely familiar???

What size hull is the white one at the dock in second shot?

"Congratulations" .......... see what a little patience will do. ;-)

It is Zero's 28' Skater. Same boat running in the video.
MLB I am like you but when it is 90+ degrees out you will get in too!
You just don't stay in it all day LOL.

Yep, all the decals and wrap are Kinetic Animation, only the best.

Off topic but I thought this was pretty cool. After my son Will was hurt and recovering in Shepard Center one of my colleagues and best friends from Florida sent us a poster. It read "Will Power". We hung it on his hospital room wall in front of him and we looked at it every day for almost ten months. Fast forward two years and I'm in my man cave cleaning it up (but not Ron clean) and I come across a mailing tube. The label reads Kentic Animation and its from Ryan Beckly. I'm thinking what the heck did I get from Ryan that I've forgot about. I pull out our "Will Power" poster! So although he does some awesome boats and other things a simple poster from a hard working fellow Skater brother touch my family and inspired us during those challenging times. So Ryan and all of you, when your doing some mundane daily routine job you never know how it may affect someone else's life.

Now no other off topic BS and carry on! This looks like a great run and I'm definitely going to try to make it happen some day!

BTW I know some of you will ask so Will is doing great. He is working hard and being a typical college kid and headed to his junior year.
