No wonder it’s taking so long lol. That is some art work for sure [emoji106]
Yeah I get all antsy and bug him and then he sends me shit like that. And this and I’m like...ah, ok. Lol. Plus he’s doing a shit ton of work on it. All new transom hardware, powder coated everything, new stereo gauges, lights, Latham throttles, seadek floor, fuel lines fuel breathers, new block in one motors, new drives, gonna repaint the deck and fix dock dash on sides, custom air vents, custom carbon fiber dash, Underwater LEDS, garmin GPS....the list goes on and on. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

custom cut air intakes. Underwater and above water LEDS (yes, I know blue is bad). Coming together. I’m a little excited

Thanks bro. We’re anxious and the kids are dyin to get it on the water.
Regarding the lights - I know they’re like Nazis about it in havasu but we had blue lights on our last cig and NEVER ONCE got hassles for it anywhere. Plus, we boat mostly in the ocean out here and they don’t give two fucks. They may not even know it’s illegal frankly. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️
I think havasu just uses it for sobriety checks.

old boat set up was pretty bright. I did dig the underwater camera you could watch the props on the tv screens while running. Pretty fun.

Yup Tankster... as we know nobody out in the ocean gives a damn about that stuff... its all go go go and arrive and chill! One with nature.... well, kinda I guess as we fly through the air. PS; I was thinking you worked at Barrett based on all those pics of the family wearing their swag. Now I know that come next month its simply that you'll feel like you bought a percentage of the biz.

Your one Picture of the Boat on the Dock. The back ground Reminds me of the Eagles 'Hotel California" Album Cover. A favorite of mine.

Wondering if he got there in time to witness the high speed skiers turning at the Casino.... my boats getting worked on so couldn't make it out to see that. Other thread says they expected around 20-25 boats this morning out of LongBeach. I pulled up Avalon webcam and the harbor was already full of boats by 8am ha. Popular this summer.

Did that several times in the early 70's. Keep on going up to Topsy Turvy. Used to be GREAT fishing in that lake and Blue lake. At topsy turvy we caught grasshoppers and used those for bait. trout killers. Nothing but rocks at TT and many of them rock and roll, thus the name. We'd spend way over a week back in there.

Send it back. The second zip tie in the right corner is completely off in regards to spacing. Unacceptable!😂

One of our favorite places to go. They've been saying they are closing in January for the last 4 years LOL! Probably one of these years?
My first time there, I have no idea lol
The marina looked like a mini LB shoreline village to me.

My parents used to weekend overnight their express cruiser in a slip there when I was a kid. Is the restaurant and little marina store still there?

Yep, still there. Restaurant is pretty good. Expect "Water Front" pricing tho!
