Welp went out this afternoon to double check the water leak issue that turned out to be the sea strainer. After a couple of hours on the smooth water and taking the wife up to 75mph without any complaints looks like all it good and we are ready for Saturday. There is talk that Jeff @Sportin' Wood will be joining us that morning on our boat. Looking forward to seeing everyone bright early on the water. I was in shorts, t-shirt and flip flops today but thinking that I might put on something a little warmer at 10am. LOL
Shorts , flip flops and a wind breaker over your t- shirt 😁

We’re in!! As in years past, I’m sure the wife will be down below in the cabin while I’m trying to keep from getting frostbite 🤣🤣

I think there needs to be a 10am temperature threshold of at least 55 degrees 😬


Well Saturday says high 71 degrees and tomorrow says high of 68 degrees with it being 55 degrees at 10am . So Saturday should be 58 degrees . See you at the bouy line at 10am Saturday Dave .

Tried calling the springs today to give them a heads up. Busy signal every time.

Brought the boat home and it started but the batteries seem low. They're back on chargers now. As long as it starts at the house in the morning I'm going for it!

I got jumper cables and a NOCO… just get it to the ramp, we’re good 😉😁

Sorry Roxy and I couldn't make it, but I had too much going on today at the Riviera. See all you guys tonight.

Here's my view.

Thanks guys for putting up with the slow guy with the jet boat. It was nice to get out of the house and on the water. I was successful in draining one fuel tank completely dry and killing the batteries trying to get it re fired 🤦🏻‍♂️ I'd say I got lucky and did get it restarted on it's own and was able to drive it on the trailer at Windsor 👍👍

When's the next one?

Thank you to everyone who made it. Not going to lie, it was chilly 🥶 but it’s been colder years past. I think this was the largest group to date and the most boats to make the run. I hope you tipped your waitress good. Ours did a great job and the wait for food wasn’t bad at all. I really appreciate all of you and hope you had a great time. Looking forward to putting something together during some warmer weather.

Thanks again

You didn't unless you jumped in the M35? They pulled up and checked on me right before I got it re fired.

The little jet boat didn't let me down but it definitely can't hang with the rest of the boats out that morning. Still had a good time and I'd do it again 👍👍

Thanks Ryan for the toe, I really appreciate it. So far we identified the issue and working on fixing it. Will report back once she is back up and running. Don't want to jinx myself just yet.
Good to hear that that you onto a resolution. I hope that the next trip is a success. 👍
