Now Mouzer. How could anyone have fun in a 18ft boat with 1500hp??There’s no shade, no tv,ac unit/5000 watt stereo bumping some stupid rap shit and 2500 lbs of ballast to create a 4 foot wake to surf behind and impress the 18 dicks aboard!

BUT SEE........WHERE LIKE MOST PEOPLE WE HAVE THE WEEKENDS OFF..WHERE R WE SUPPOSE TO USE R FLATTYS OR HYDROS........THATS WHY ARE LIFE STYLE IS DISSAPEERING...WEEKENDS ARE LIKE THE OCEAN OUT THERE........BECAUSE OF ROLL BAR BOATS AND 30 FT BOATS

my 28' deck boat hardly has a wake when it's up on plane......and it gets there pretty quick.
I'm with you on the wake boats though. Although they are fun and serve their purpose.......people go full ballast at the wrong time of day in the middle of the river. that's really the problem. river etiquette has gone out the window

In what little water there actually is below Parker, there are way too many alligators and water moccasins. I would never go down there.

Not to mention that you are risking your life on the reservation. Just not worth all the danger.

More people should go to Parker...much safer.

While we're at it, lets take back Bullhead too. I don't like the way all the casinos fucked up our little slice of paradise back in the 60's.

Me popping up on doubles and in the back ground, lots of nothing that would later become Laughlin.

That is the second best way to wake up in the morning at the river! The first has something to do with your wife and no clothing. :D

I love the injected v-drive Cole. That is such a badass boat!!!

That’s such a super cool clip. Ear to ear grin.
...someday it could happen again. I’d make damn sure to be there with my sled now that it’s running. [emoji1303][emoji1591][emoji631]

...Being a Parker guy from the early ‘60’s to maybe’70...We would motor from near the Dam(Polynesian) to Foxes...sometimes 5X a day...The only boats we had were Vdrive Flats...Never once did anyone I know of have an issue with getting swamped while tied up at Foxes???...or anywhere else on the River for that matter...The boating conditions on the strip today...are really making me not want to make the drive to the River???...

...The pic of the Flat is my ‘63 Hallett which would be a prime candidate for getting swamped...and is pretty much equal to what all of us had in the ‘60’s...

...The other pic is my Spectra 24...Anybody know if even it could possibly get swamped by the Wakeboard boats???...

I usually park my flat on the inside of all the docks on the strip with the nose it, pretty safe that way. I still wouldn’t do it around happy hour on a big holiday weekend tho

Yes by a wake surf boat. My 26' I come off plane when passing. One out there green white wife will warn you with a orange flag on 5' pole as you approach. Could not imagine hitting that wake wide open. If you want to roll out to Parker let me know I got room on my boat for you and crew. No need to tow already there.

Still have both of dads old Velmar skis, mom's taperflex and one of my old Brads. Traded in the first one for the new one in '74. Even have one of the skis from the pic of me on doubles above. Captain Kidd ski, dad installad a rear binding and I had my first single! Please note that this was at the time Americas Finest Water Ski.
Wall hanger now, bought for my cousins and I in '63.
