2013 Damn Dam Run Executive Committee Dates Request Thread........

[HALLETT BOY]

Hey......that's Mr. Idiot to you Hallett Boy................

Oh sorry , wasn't talking about you !

 

[Lunatic Fringe]

Thanks LF and Joker... I hope we can make it this year... LF, The whole weekend at Monster Bash I use a full tank of gas... This in includes running it hard on the lunch run and on the poker run... Estimating what you use during the weekend and what you use on the Damn Run approximately the same amount of gas or which event do you use more... We pretty much ran this last Monster Bash together so it will give me a good idea...

I hold a little over 150 gallons on board and need to re fuel for the poker runs.
This event I use maybe a half to 3/4's of a tank.
We run alot harder at the poker runs.

Are you handeling the shirt orders this year? Your design last year was bad ass.:thumbup:

Hell yeah! i paid extra for that versace design!

 

[Paul65k]

Do you guys think I could make it in my little 21' Schiada

 

[McRib]

Do you guys think I could make it in my little 21' Schiada

Yes. As long as the wind is 10 mph or less.

 

[HavasuHank]

As of right now, my weekends off in June are the 7th-9th ... 14th-16th ... and 28th-30th.

We are good to go any of those days.

Umm hell yes Paul, I got about 10mpg @3800-4000rpm's in that boat at Powel and it holds 56 gal., I was going to use the 21RT but knew it was going to be windy so I used the 36PR.

 

[CampbellCarl]

Really depends on the weather. Last year it blew hard and even AJ's 33'r took water over the bow......several turned back.

No wind or storms.....you could make it in a powered row boat.......big wind and t-storms.....you need a 40'r

I never took water over the bow of my 27' hallett, of corse the hallett is built to run in ruff water...

 

[CampbellCarl]

Executive Committee met in short session today..........expecting June 29th to be the day selected.

Does that give anybody any pain where the gas gathers?

Jokers family is gone (hopefully his boat will know which side of it the lake belongs on by then) and Hank is off that weekend. Those are the only two that expressed specific dates of yes/no.

Somebody needs to 'ping' AJ and see if he's in town......

You'll be fine. Just slow down a bit, and take a class from 2FF before the run. He'll straighten you out

biggest mistake I see made is when people tuck the drive in when its ruff.... water over the bow

 

[TBI]

Get up on top of that shit where it's smooth!

Our trip 3 years ago was like that.
That was actually when DILLIGAF was the head chair person. Since Carl took over , the weather has been great.

I'm not sure if it's me or the boat, but last year I was getting beat. It sure seems as though this thing should be smoother even in rough water?

Good luck keeping up with your family cruiser this year. I hope there's 4'rs.

Awesome. Looks like we might be out though. I the weekend of the 29th and prob can't get the time off. Going on a cruise the weekend before and then fouth of July right after. Im gonna have a hard time getting coverage.

After the second Tsunami over the bow last year we turned back around Cottonwood and it was a biotch getting back to Gasoline Alley for the rest of a great day. I have a 23 foot Sleekcraft and weeks later made the trip like I was in a small pond without the wind. Kiethco's in for the 2013 installment!

 

[Roaddogg 4040]

The 29th sounds good to me...

Steve

 

[wedge45]

Never been on the Dam Run .... Looks fun, but I only have a 23' footer, don't know if it can handle it

and that weekend looks bad for us, it's right before 4th of July... Wedge

 

[Enen]

I would love to make it. Zero chance I could pull it off on the weekend of the 29th. Might I appeal to the Executive Committee to consider the third weekend in July?

That's why I just tow to Cottonwood , it can get rough ! And cottonwood is such a nice place to launch ...

 

[DILLIGAF]

I think I will tow to CC this year also. Finally got my new boat AFTER the DR last year but it is a "little" slower than the Howard. Will be in my South Bay Tri toon.
