For the last 8 years or so some dudes named Dog and Andy have hosted a v-drive only gathering on the Sacramento Delta to raise funding for the San Joaquin Sheriff's Explorer and Boater Safety Programs. I was in the area visiting my grandkids and had the opportunity to drop in to this years event for couple of hours on Saturday. For the uninitiated, the event runs Thursday through Sunday and includes a fun run around the delta on Friday, and in/out of water boat show on Saturday, and award winning hangover remedies on Sunday at the Windmill Cove Marina and Resort near Stockton CA.
There were a ton of just plain beautiful boats in the water, some amazing food, a raffle with great prizes, really good live entertainment, and vibe that reminded my now 39 year old daughter of her younger days growing up in Parker.
Also, while there was a strong presence of SJ Sheriff deputies, speed runs out in front of the resort were frequent and un-encumbered.
If you ever happen to find yourself up the Sac Delta area in early August, I strongly recommend giving it a look. It's the closest thing to the old Billy B Needles shows as I have experienced since way back when.
Here's a couple of pics. Facebook link below if you want some more pics and some really nice drone content.
