... post something about boating. Over the past day, everytime I checked the Sandbar, there's only been maybe one thread regarding boating .... and it's SUMMER.
I had a great day boating yesterday ... ran between Newport Beach and Long Beach in the late afternoon/evening. Big water, 4-5 foot washing machine with rolling/breaking swells ... I was in heaven.

I can remember being in water like that in my Wellcraft. I didn't like it and I would not do it again. I am however quite fond of boating in the ocean. It's just that I would probably sink in the back bay in this v-drive.
:cool: v-drive

:) Hey D ... that's part of the thrill ... in the back of your mind you know JAWS is out there somewhere .. lurking ... makes you take that schit serious and you tend to be a little more careful
There are different strokes for different folks and the ocean works for me.
I also enjoy lake and river boating but the ocean floats my boat.

We ran a 33 Baja Cat while up in Jersey. It was very different. Ran it in the ocean in 4+ footers, what a rush. We were out of the water more than in. We also ran it in Barnaget Bay at full throttle (100+ MPH) but it didn't seem as thrilling.
Hey G-Got an offer on the boat, it may be F-2 time!!!!

Scream and I really want to do a Catalina run sometime......Turkey Season is coming up, so it won't be soon.
The most fun I had this weekend (seriously) was going fast in our friends boat. Sadly we didn't do much of this. They are great people, but a drive to Steamboat and park there and then drive to the channel, isn't my idea of a good time. THINK of the river we could have covered? Down to the dam, up to the sandbar to feed the CBBBers beer, Topock gorge, flirt with Needles.....
Well different strokes for different folks................ :clover:
