Very nice. You plan on being at Lake Erie around the islands this summer?

My buddy i go out with every weekend has a 2003 velocity 320, he'd be in for sure... What's that velocity fest someone on here was talking about?

i like the sound of that buckeye lake.! We have a group of lil lakes 1/2 hour from here loaded with restaurants and bars, but they have a 400hp limit.! Lol, we took the power boats last year on their poker run weekend when they turn a blind eye to alot of rules. 85% of the lakes are no wake. We try and do PIB once a year, and Presque isle too.. Mostly stay on Berlin or Milton tho.

Never been on the island, only drive bys. Looks like a killer home port location tho! Pretty well protected and close to everything.

I've never been to Velocity Fest. Usually in the ChessBay I think but also think it's put on by a group of owners more so than the factory. I may be wrong about all of that... maybe we can get some of them them to drive east:)
I need to get the boat ready! It's March:poopoo:

Our own velocity fest would be awesome. Making some progress too. The guys got the dash set in place and working on rear bench.

Johnson's Island
 
A Lake Erie run with strategic stops at Kelly's, Put-in-Bay, and Johnson's Island would be a cool time. I have room for 6 offshores without rafting at my place!

My only issue is I need a boat that floats!:poopoo:
