The Outboard Church

[lake p.a.l.]

Big thank you to Highvoltage329 & his fantastic wife for allowing F14 to store his Glastron on their lift for a lil while so we can fix his trailer.

 

[Saltine]

Wife, dog & me are gonna spend the night on our lil cabin cruiser Saturday night on the dock at B&W. Sorry I won't have our Skater out but would be cool to meet you & see your boat.

Trying to get out starting to feel like summer. New to the sport been on the river since the 80s. Mainly slalom and barefoot. I have a little talon now. Having a blast with it so far. Trying to work the quarks out with it

We need pics of the Talon, hope to meet you

Well I went to replace the oil in the lower unit before I took it out on the maiden voyage this weekend and....... nothing but water drained out. SHIT!!!

Lower unit is off, going to a shop tomorrow.

look on the bright side...you may have saved the gears...replacing everything would really suck.

A few of us will be on the Delta this Saturday social distancing drinking. My wife, dog, & me will be staying on our lil cabin cruiser tied to dock @ BW then head back to Benicia on Sunday morning. Hope to meet you & see your Talon.

Joe at DBR just finished my 15” custom lower....
The DBR crew modified my intake pick up to give me more water flow. Shit gets hot at 110 + mph. Can’t wait to test it! Thx Joe!

 

[War Canoe]

I will be on the water with “All my Rowdy friends” again soon....

 

[AZMIDLYF]

Post some pics of the reworked lower, please.

 

[BingerFang]

Guess who I saw today! Lol

(it’s a terrible photo but it’s @Bullhead bully in his aqua plane!)

My dad got his flat bottom together so we took it out for a morning cruise.

 

[AZMIDLYF]

Something tells me, the word cruise doesn't apply in this case.

 

[HighVoltage329]

That’s a great boat. Saw it run many times @ CFW & Berryessa...Fast

 

[n2otoofast4u]

Boated Havasu, the Delta, and Shasta this past week!

He is back in Oregon, we showed him around the Delta first......

Not an outboard but had a BLAST with my hot wife & our pooch Arnie. Launched Benicia marina, met KingofBeers & his birthday wife along with Highvoltage329 his amazing wife & several others for social distancing lunch etc. Spent night on our lil cabin cruiser cuddled with our dog & cruised home today. Took 3 hours to go 45 miles thru 3-4' slop. Great weekend, did 112 miles roundtrip

 

[lake p.a.l.]

Arnie has a rough life

 

[Blow It Up]

Had a great wife birthday weekend boating and hanging out at the pool. Lake was insane busy. Got to hang out with some great people. 3 Dunes was packed. Waters warming up. So many people out it looked like memorial weekend.

William turned 16 today...wanted to go wakeboarding....super nice day.

 

[Bullhead bully]

Got to run with Eric in his gorgeous 28SS This morning.
I really enjoyed being passenger and watching the boat work. And it does work so well!

All I see is a guy with a fading hair line!

Your hairline is only fading because you're probably doing 130. The big question for me is, how did you get that beautiful boat out of the Landing?

Beautiful 28SS
Nice to see you out enjoying some time on someone else's boat.
We are gonna have several twin outboards & possibly a 24 HTM car motor tearing up the middle part of the Delta on Thursday. Should be a blast.

 

[Bullhead bully]

And then finish the day with the family on the single pontoon. Mid week is awesome!

I can get used to this

I really have to stop heading home during the week.

Absolutely. Last week was crazy. Exceptionally busy due to Quarantine and Desert Storm people that came anyway. It’s back to normal now gorgeous out there! Zero wind all day and hardly any traffic

Heading back out Thursday night. Have work to do early and then it’ll be time to burn some gas. Kinda hoping it’s not off the hook.

Thanks for riding shotgun amigo!
Always value your insight.

As the saying goes...... it’s who you know!
Hope you guys are good Kent. Give me a call to catch up. 909-912-4495

Headed to the Delta in the early morn....
Lake pal is treating me to a day in the 30.8 Skater twin....I am looking forward to running with the big dogs. I hear rumor there will be some big fiberglass at this Church run. This will be memorable....it will look something like this....

 

[lake p.a.l.]

Not sure it will look like that but it could be a little nautical for the Delta tomorrow with the wind.
We will have a blast, truly looking forward to tomorrow. Supposed to have at least:
(3) 28 Skater
(1) 32 Skater
Our 308 Skater
(1) 28 Doug Wright
All above are twin 2 stroke outboards.
Also supposed to have (1) 24 HTM I/O 1000HP that wants to play with the sewing machines.
This could get very interesting especially if the wind blows as scheduled. Hope to put Rev behind the wheel while I throttle.

 

[War Canoe]

Awesome run...

 

[n2otoofast4u]

Slightly jealous.

Great to see everybody!
Impressive assortment of fiberglass...
Nicest people you’d ever want to meet.
Thanks for the rip, Rob !!
The big Skater was faced with some decent size water in a few places. The HTM quickly learned the wrath of open water. These boats ran well together. We had a big water battle heading over to false river , with “Gone Again” ...so freaking fun!!!

 

[lake p.a.l.]

Had an absolute BLAST today. I get bored with the flat Delta water & we didn't have much of that today. The run back to BW from Fisherman's cut was great. Thanks for joining me Rev & picking up lunch. Great to see SFOcean today too.
