All I know is, It’s too much boat. It’s just too much.Anybody know anything about this boat? Just saw the movie last night and had never seen it before.

Some scenes the engine has a blower, some scenes it’s a tunnel ram.
I’ve read the blower was just a shell?
Bass Lake I believe.What lake was it filmed on?

Back in the day I think my kids watched that movie 100 times.
Just saw it for the first time last night! What rock have you been living under? Your lucky you don't get a vacation for admitting that .Anybody know anything about this boat? Just saw the movie last night and had never seen it before.
I've been on a John Candy kick. Uncle Buck is still the best.Just saw it for the first time last night! What rock have you been living under? Your lucky you don't get a vacation for admitting that .
Great movie isn't it
Me too, been awhile since I've seen a version with that scene still in it.....Great movie but it's different now than when I first watched it, there were a couple scenes taken out and this one I liked.
On one television version, there is a scene where Chet is trying to maneuver his vehicle with the drag boat trailer onto the road. Roman's suggestions are not helping, as Chet almost hits different obstacles blocking his path. An officer (played by Troy Evans) notices this and approaches informing Chet that he is watching Chet's navigation. Finally Chet successfully makes it on the road. As they are driving away laughing at the officer, the boat slides off the trailer and into the street.
When my cousin and I were looking into buying a boat, before we found the Lavey, a friend of ours had a line on one of those camera boats and we were really thinking about buying it but decided to go this route instead.Those were the original boats that were going to be used in the film, but then they switched to the flat bottom.. There was a couple Schiada's built with an open deck and they were used as camera platforms. Crazy Hippy used to have one, and the guys down at WOT marine had the other one.

Cutting through the marina was classic.Always thought the stunt skiers did a great job.
I grew up with that being one of my favorite movies. We had the VHS tape and would crank call people prior to caller ID with the 66'66666sssssssss X's in the head stutterer guy. lol!
I've wanted to head up to Bass lake for some time now. I read they require you to buy a permit to boat on the lake and you have to buy some kind of special fuel too.
Most of ityep
Bass Lake
And the big schiada sign on the rental booth. Wish Blevins was still around, he prolly has it. Would look cool in the garageHow about the schiada outboard at 1:11 . In the background
no special fuel, registration yes. You can try and get by without but will take the chance of getting stopped, Then you will need it. It’s about $50 for the year. Great place
As much as I love this movie, I think my favorite movie with John Candy was Planes Trains and Automobiles. That was nonstop comedy.
Registration?Is there a length or speed limit?

She's so insecure! Last night, she shoved them in the clerk's face at the 7-11, Honey, relax, will you. They're beautiful. They look right and they feel right!Summer rental is my favorite.
Registration?
Like CF or AZ numbers with currents tags?
Saw that one for sale couple years back on cars on line under movie vehicles.How about the schiada outboard at 1:11 . In the background
No. Open water from 8am to 8pm. 5 mph Outside of thatDoes Bass Lake have a length or speed limit for boats like Lake Arrowhead does.

the sherriff's sticker is now $65 bucks pretty sure......... good for the calender year. so if you wanted to go there buy it early. nothing like buying it in august for a 1 time use.
--the lake is pretty. pretty small though... not sure about a speed limit, but it's definetly a counter-clockwise lake.
