I am going to be in Tulsa Friday and Saturday, but might try to go for one last ride Sunday if the weather is nice. Thinking of trading her in, so one last beating would be fun.

Candyman Dan had a raw water pump housing split. We just floated around until he swapped it out.

[MILD THUNDER]

Good job getting it swapped in a timely fashion Dan! Btw everyone's boats looked great out there running.

Very nice... wish I was done with my mills.... but.... a little behind schedule. Still hoping to try them out before the snow flys but we'll see.... DEPRESSED!

Yesterday was a good day on the pond. Saw BZ and Rich when we were heading back into New Buffalo. We ran into Gary in St Joe, JJ got to go for a ride on his OL. JJ got to go for a ride in Garys boat, Gary got him up to 105. JJ loved it, he proceeded to say my boat was junk and he was done with it!!!!! What a lucky kid, been on my boat, my old checkmate, Mikey's 35 Fountaine, Ryno's Cig and the 42' OL all before the age of 5!!!!

Hey, an OL would sure look nice in that new barn of yours.:cheers2:
Sounds like it was an awesome weekend for everyone.

Don't qualify for either, but pine lake still blows:D:03::lurk5:

Yea, but I still managed to burn about 30+ gallons of $6.00 / gallon gas out there this Sunday. That is fun regardless what the lake is like!:driving:

[SC288]

Yeah and 4 - 6 easy runs up to 115 or so while I was in the boat....let's do it again Sunday!!! :driving:

[WETTE VETTE]

OK! This time with the fast prop in case any more of those bassers want to play.:D

Hows that motor running????

[WETTE VETTE]

Hows that motor running????

Pretty good. Still easing into an aggressive tune. Probably one more time out this year and then next spring I'll start pulling fuel and adding some timing and vacuum. With a very safe tune and straight 112 octane its prolly 5 MPH faster than last year. Mixing the fuel 50/50, leaning it out a bit and throwing a little more timing at it should be more power and a couple more MPH. I don't like doing fine tuning when in the fall when the air is cooler and denser than the typical summer boating weather.

I think you need 2 of these babies for the Sunny! Reaves would chit!:cheers2:

Ok Schleppy....I will do you a favor to get your engine business started....here's the deal:

I trade you my two Shogren turn key specials for two of your 598's straight up! :lurk5: :bump:

Umm let me think. My one 598 makes more power and is more reliable than the two turn key specials. Nay on the trade, but I will help you put in some blower cams and 8's on top of those specials to wake them up a bit.

Have you sold the intakes yet?:D

[WETTE VETTE]

Oops! Now Stroud is thinking "oh man SC288 is getting huffers! I better start looking at some bigger WHACKAS!":03:

Sounds like you are looking for a winter project???? When do we start, I just want the basic 598's, nothing exotic like your BIG SHOW!!!!!:03: We better rebuild the drives while were at it!!!!!!:cheers2:

[Magic Medicine]

Oops! Now Stroud is thinking "oh man SC288 is getting huffers! I better start looking at some bigger WHACKAS!":03:

Stroud aka Daddy warbucks needs to get that bigger boat he's been talking about. Then he should quite playing softball. Those 2 items would make him a pretty cool dude:lurk5:

[Twin Whackas]

Nah, two whackas are enough. Besides, if I went bigger, that would just be more stuff to break :o
Now, maybe the 33 with a couple of your little power adders. Now that would be fun.:03:

[MILD THUNDER]

Now your talking.....some 8-71's intercooled and 10 psi will wake them little motors up! Maybe some schlep custom blower specd roller cams, a little valayko head work, and some of that fruit fragrance fuel additive that jegs sells. I know they have strawberry, pina colada, etc. I wonder if they have ribeye or pork tenderloin scent for ya?

[MILD THUNDER]

Stroud aka Daddy warbucks needs to get that bigger boat he's been talking about. Then he should quite playing softball. Those 2 items would make him a pretty cool dude:lurk5:

I agree. Ditch the softball. He should brush up on his checkers skills, and start hanging with wild boys racing. Nothing like a intense game of checkers after dialing in some carbs, polishing off a bottle of goose, and doing a little wave crushing. Next seasons goal is to have a checkers tournament on the flatdeck cigarette while running thru 3-5's from hammond to south haven. Winner gets a holley jet pack, a bottle of Seafoam, and several summit racing decals for his boat.

[420NytroBoy69]

I like how that challenge sounds Joe!! Don't forget the chocolate martinis and a race in the dock carts.

[MILD THUNDER]

Yep, wild boys offshore challenge, 2011. Checkers, Chocolate martinis, and dock cart races.

If chocolate martinis arent your thing, we will have other stuff too. Cig38Flatdeck ryan makes some killer cosmos.

Chuckle all you want. Drink 8 cosmos compared to 8 miller lites and see who the tough guy is! :_boobies:

Nah, WHACKAS would go with Cool Ranch Doritos scent!:cheers2:

[SC288]

Or Jalapeno Beef Jerky scent or GFS Italian Beef scent or......

I've got the Summit and Jeg's decals for prizes....I may even be able to be convinced of letting go of my badass Summit and Jeg's hat's that I received for free while ordering parts for the Shogren Turn Key Special....:USA: :D

[Twin Whackas]

All meat all the time diet is the only way to go. Along with a little immodium if you are heading out on the snowmobiles:03:

I am allergic to chocolate, so I will skip the martinis, but 8 cosmos sure sounds like fun.:cheers2:

[Magic Medicine]

No no Nacho cheese doritos!!!:03:

Yea SC288 thinks so too. Then the next day he can beat the chit out of the whackas while you sleep it off in the passengers seat. Now you know why your stuff breaks!! You boating on our little pond this weekend? I think Magic should take his out there as well this Sunday. I'll be trying the 32" wheel while trying to avoid the coots that showed up this week.:driving:

[WETTE VETTE]

No no Nacho cheese doritos!!!:03:

Or cheese impreganated snausages with a twinge of azz!:confused:

[Twin Whackas]

Fun day on the little pond today. Whackas ran a respectable 92mph, but Wette Vette made me look like I had my boat in reverse. I took my GoPro camera out to shoot some video, but forgot to put an SD card in to record on...duh:smash:

And we tied at 1 coot each. It was fun giving it one final beating for the season. And watching Whackas give the old outboards one last flogging befroe the big trade in!

Hope Bryce enjoyed his ride.
