Anyone around this afternoon around 430-5?

I'll be picking up my boat from Prestige about then and I want to launch at Windsor to water test before taking it back to storage in Bullhead.

Quick run through the channel and around the island.

Yeah I thought about running down there for a dinner run but if I do that would put me back well after Dark and I got to get the boat back to Bullhead tonight.

It's never fun to launch alone!

Funny story, I was in the NP Dunes marina one Saturday afternoon on a date, and there was 4 hot older women trying to launch a Duffy or some boat like that. They couldn't back in to save their lives, plus we all know how squirly those short wheelbase trailers are. 20 min later we're walking around and they're still struggling lol, so I go over and I helped them. Impressed my date with my kind deed. And wow those G-wagons are nice inside!

Little did my date know....I really freaking wished I didn't have her with me!! I woulda much rather went boating with those women lol

Bilge Dry?
Not a drip. I think the issue is cured. Had Prestige Marine take the outdrive out they found the assembly gasket for the steering box wasn't seated right. Also found a bunch of sand in there so looks like maybe it drug through a sandbar at speed is what knocked it all loose. The trim tab was also leaking a little bit. Hopefully this takes care of it sure put a smile on my face.👍👍

Water was perfect 👌
Got the boat back to Bullhead, wiped it down, and now I'm back in CA 👎 wish I could have stayed all weekend. Don is good people 👍
Yeah….back in CA is no bueno. LOL You should have stayed out in Havasu for sure. This time of year is the best!!! You are able to have the trifecta. Boating, off roading and whatever else you enjoy. There is always space if you ever need it. And you are right Don and his wife are the best!!!
