Parker’s rough

[warpt71]

Hear the 800s don’t go far couple I’ve gone with from lapaz to dam barely make it. One guy never drives fast either

I can do it twice on 550 at decent pace with a little left over.

Ive put some serious miles on my 550! I need to go for a ride now lol

Dropped the boat in at the Big River park today. It’s the only part of the river I haven’t been on from Davis to Imperial dams. Wholly shit is that part of the river sketchy.

Shallow, boulders and tree stumps all over the place. Surprisingly a fair amount of wake board boats. Beautiful stretch of the river and some amazing houses.

I ran up to the dam from Mark's place by Foxes and back only used a few gallons of fuel. I need to work on the handling of my ski. Anything over 3/4 throttle and it porpoises really bad. Probably need to either shim the ride plate or Mark has an old TBM ride plate I might try.

Next time you make it back down to Parker let us know.

We stayed about an hour or so. Girlfriend saw the clouds coming in and wanted to pull out and head back up to Havasu.

You all had some nice boats parked at the beach.

Yeh will do. Might be in sept though. Busy til til then. Yeh shim it two washers see what it does.

My 550sx had a porpoise problem I threw two things at once new I take grate and shimmed ride plate.

It fixed it. Most said need to know how to ride. Rode my first in 85 lol. Tried every stance. Just put an old ktc on mine from stock 550 plate works great.
