NGE what's with the hat, just curious? I work for them.

I wear it a lot when I run (cool mesh hat). Once in a while, a UPS driver will point at me or wave. lol

It was part of a Halloween Costume a few years back.

we spend every July 4th up at the delta for the last 45 years. we hide form the heat, at Parker or Blythe and go to the delta July and August. as you can see. there are other reasons. we like to ski and board. 5 days there and I saw 25 boats. the real reason I go. the Hot rod boats stay home and we take my favorite boat, our old malibu sunsetter.

Nice!!
Apparently the one and only time I went to the delta, I was in the wrong area and hated it. Guess I'll have to give it another try sometime. Haha maybe I'll meet up with you in August if you go.

My wife and I welcomed our baby girl to the family last week so we could go anywhere for the 4th. Instead we invited the family to our place for smoked and BBQ'd ribs. :thumbsup Turned out to be a great time.

Congrats on the baby girl, Undersoul. Make sure to get your free RDP onesie!

Why was the rope needed?

Couldnt get it started one afternoon. rebuilt the fuel pump that night and was able to get it going for the last day on the water. Something else seems off and was hard to idle and popped a few times at WOT...but ran well besides that. We shall see what my mechanic comes across.

its carb. New plugs before that trip (i was getting spark..i checked). bypassed the fuel filter..thought maybe it gunked up.. still no success. It runs at speed fine..just really struggles to start when it sits for awhile.

I know it's a HIGHLY debated topic but, I added a low pressure electric fuel pump to mine about 6 years ago. Really cleared up a lot of fuel issues for me. And if you run surface gap plugs, rarely ever have to worry about them. I've never changed mine in the 11 years I've owned it. Runs and idles fine and will still spin 7k when I want to.

what kind of camera are you using? the pic's are crystal clear and the color is great!
IPhone 6s plus. The 2 of my pontoon in Havasu are through one of the filters from my instagram app. The one of my rogers,yellow one,is no filter.

Just returned from boating the 1000 Islands region of the St. Lawrence Seaway.

For those that haven't been they shoot fireworks out of Boldt Castle (which sits on it's own island) and it's a freshwater boating paradise :thumbsup

Nice pic. Spent a lot of time hangin out in there. Beautiful place to spend a day. By the way, is that a drone pic in a national park? be careful!

no but what is the concern? some new law about drones in a NP? saw plenty of them there and other parks before.

This is the type of stuff I would do if I had a cabin cruiser

that's for sure,you can literally go for a 1000 miles in either direction.

thought this guy had the sweet set up...you know your baller when your lake house dwarfs your 60' yacht.

The FAA/National Park Service has banned drones in all of our national parks. Guess they can seize the drone as well as impose a hefty fine if you're caught. This thanks to a handful of idiots annoying people and wildlife, and just plain being stupid.
