We’re leaving Oregon Friday headed down. Dragging the junk with us. I love this run, always a good group, never a dick swinging contest. @Wmc let me board his at that time nearly brand new twin motor pontoon last time I made this (2 years ago I believe) trip and I’ve wanted one since. Always a couple cool little hot rods, and a couple big hot rods, with everything in between. It’s not an all day deal, all you “busy folks” just come for a bit and enjoy, it’s Thanksgiving for Fack sakes, take a breath!

This is such a fun event. A chill day on the water. I hope I can make it this year.

This still happening? @HNL2LHC you can jump in with us the girls are staying at the house maybe meet at the house around 11...Your wife/fam is welcome as well or they can hang at the house with the girls, Matt's (my BIL) daughter was born a couple weeks ago so I don't think the girls will be doing any boating this week.

My BIL and I are planning on being there around noon in Thompson. @WTR&PWR we're in an x-flight. Shoot me your cell and I'll text you.

Thanks for the offer. Not sure if we are going to make to town early enough to join in th fun. Got to go to LA for business meetings. I think that we are leaving to come back Wednesday morning so I doubt that we will be in Havasu until early afternoon. We will certainly meet up sometime while you are in town

Move to Tuesday? Maybe y’all should buy true tunnel boats that don’t get worried when the wind picks up. 😂

Gusts to 40mph. Cam must be in town. 🤣

Sorry guys. I’m super bummed as well. This is the second time in 8 years it’s been blown out. But it’s a fun run, we will try again next year??

And on Friday (and Saturday), the circle boat races will be in front of La Paz County park, just FYI.

Dan'l
It will b interesting to see if/how any winds effect the circle boat races? They should b pretty protected?

I live in Parker. There is no protected part of the river. That section is gnarly when it’s windy. Waves will be going up river.


That being said. Looks good for the races this weekend.
