Nice run guys...

 

[Blow It Up]

Did the lower river run yesterday. 120 plus miles round trip of beautiful lower river. It’s a beautiful area that is that’s extremely shallow. Basically sand bars every few hundred yards that you snake through as you make your way down the river. Boat count was great. I hear 79 outboards and 3 jets was the count.

7:30 am launch at Mc Intyre in Blythe.

Weather was a perfect 100 degrees. Had a great time. Good group of people.

Had a FANTASTIC day riding with Rick in his 28 Skater yesterday. It's a 1994 that looks damn near brand new. Thanks to Dan for buying lunch @ Rio City, great food. 135 miles & hit 110 mph with 3 people. His boat is dialed with 38 gallon ballast tank & trim tabs for rough water. What a pleasure to ride with a true offshore champion. Water got rough after we passed Rio Vista on the way back, went from legit 2-3' to much bigger, so we hung a left & cut thru 3 mile slough & back to Pittsburg. Wiped it down then had the "pleasure" of a jet boat guy coming over to tell us about his mail order bride from Vietnam.........

If you have a formidable opponent you gas him like a cockroach. Nitrous!!!

The Phantom is a purveyor of “The Coolant” or “Gas” .... personally, I gassed many unsuspecting opponents with my 2 Stage 67 Corvette. The stuff works amazing. It’s like a blower in a bottle.

I had a red 65, blue 89, black 92 they were great cars. I only had nitrous on my 72 Cuda.

“Sweet Sixteen” , Bully’s New DW 32’, just ran a 134 mph today with Bully at the helm. ....still has 35 lbs water pressure, going up another 1/16th. Bully’s goal: 140 mph.

I’m in love with the predictable feel of the new DW. Even north of 130 it’s on rails ! That’s not an easy task when you have the CG so far back. Nice consistent progression in the top end number as well. I’m not in a rush to find out where it’ll top out. Not the right time of year for that anyway. Density altitude even when it’s cool is 3000+ .

What do you do when you’re waiting for the sun to come up to go boating? Fly to Lake Mojave and watch the sun come up then go boating in havasu
