Launch Benicia marina tomorrow morning, meet everyone @ Pittsburg marina @ 11am. Then tear up some back channels of the mid Delta, hit Rusty Porthole for much needed hydration then lope back to Benicia. Should have at least 10 boats. KingofBeers & Highvoltage329 will probably lead the charge unless Rev shows up. Church Dog will be in attendance also

Wind report changed drastically overnight. Gonna trailer to B&W, don't need to fight 4-5 footers between Benicia & Pittsburg with the tide ripping out.

They had big respect for you & Bill. These guys were cool & knew they didn't want to play with the whackers beyond a mile.
Bully, sorry you are having another shitty day.......
Or in the 1/4 mile once we prop down..J/S..there is some quick jets at CFW,those guys don't appear to be them..?talking jets that have a true 900+ horsepower and are tunnels typically,those accelerate to 110mph in 9 seconds

Lets just say that I turned around at the Antioch Bridge. It wasnt terrible, but a lot more than I wanted to deal with🙃. I have never seen the SJR SOOOOO crowded. Absolutely a zoo.

We had an EPIC day on the Delta yesterday. A lil over a hundred miles total. Some solid 3' wind chop with some larger mixed in on the way to & from Pittsburg but mostly flattened out once we got back east of Antioch bridge. Hopefully Don in his 24 HTM "just" melted down his headers. Big thanks to Mr Best & KingofBeers for helping him out. Hit a beach on San Joaquin river with Boatmasters Drew then back to the trailer @ B&W.

Bill's 26 RPM with the new 1400hp Teague motor looks & sounds amazing. Hope he has MUCH better luck with this new setup. He is kicking around the idea about converting to outboards so he can actually run his boat instead of just talking about running. He is a GREAT guy.

Great pictures, Rob !
looks like a great turn out.
Bummed I didn’t make it.
Would have loved to have ran with Church Dog in the prototype ...my boat couldn’t have taken the water conditions. I end up breaking shit trying to push it!

The only thing it needed back then was another 280. I went for a couple laps in it way back yonder :)

Another epic Delta run yesterday on our buddy Greg's Mach 26 DCB. HE had Drew @ Boatmasters replace his old powerheads with new XS & he is thrilled. Dropped in @ BW with KingofBeers, jogged up Georgianna slough, left on Sacramento river down to mouth @ Rio Vista & it was nasty, quick right on Steamboat slough, refreshments on private beach, right on Sac river then back down Georgianna, 55 mile loop. Packed Greg back on trailer & sent him back to Oregon then KingofBeers & his lovely wife invited me for a beverage on our own island. FANTASTIC day

Start of the trip warm up run..Sunday needles to casinos back to needles. Needles to gorge and back. All on 3/4 of 1 tank. About 13-15 gallons. Gotta love these 300xs engines.

We got 4.1 mpg running flat out in the Parker Enduro with a 300 XS....i bet its 25-30 % more efficient at every measurable speed and rpm. Max rpm is 6400, but you are getting it all by 6100...2.5’s spin 7700 stock. Here’s a shot of The War Canoe coming thru the springs, on the long course, at 105 mph sliding sideways
with a two story vapor trail following.
