[lake p.a.l.]

these little "pisspots" will be affected ALOT more then skaters and such by adding big wind deflecter,not to mention there fuglyness

I absolutely 100000% understand & agree but I'd give up a couple mph to be more protected from wind.
Guess I'm old. ... ........

 

[lake p.a.l.]

Ken Warby did 314 mph with a wing. I’d be happy with 200. View attachment 1462065 View attachment 1462066

160+ was plenty for me, im a pussy

It’s a fine day for the Delta on Sunday….
Hoping to run 150 miles. Then, go to Smiths Landing seafood grill and have an exquisite lunch. Pretty fancy for us 2 Strokers!

How's bro like the mirage?

 

[War Canoe]

He really likes it. He was blown away with the acceleration of the Green Monster.
We put maybe 60 miles on them today.

It's a sweet boat overall ! But it is not a forgiving Tiger. With a little patience and set up testing upcoming to learn from .The goal is to throw the saddle on the Tigers back and not end up in the stomach. Right now it's 50/50.My goal is 80/20

 

[lake p.a.l.]

Glad you are back .
Even better that u & Rev are hanging together again

My new to me STV has a 25 gallon main tank AND two 12 gallon tanks, one left side and one right side , for a total of 48 gallons. Designed for long high speed river runs.

I run the Delta backwaters….I’ll never need this much fuel. Debating its removal due to excessive and unnecessary weight. I figure the two tanks, 2” hose, auxiliary fuel transfer pump and other related parts will total 50-60 pounds

“Should they stay or should they go” ???“This indecision bugging me…..” Split!!

 

[HST4ME]

That'll work for the enduro

I’ll save them for your 2025 enduro entry.
Say hello to Ross for me.

Personally it's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it! JMO
Nice float by the way

Keep them for that gorgeous, dead flat day when u launch in Sacramento & have lunch at Sams in Tiburon after going under Golden Gate Bridge

 

[sonicss31]

Keep the tanks, maybe just go on a diet and lose 30/40 lbs and be healthier. I know someone else was thinking it.

Last night we discussed doing a little of both .
Good thing Kev Stoker 2001 runs with us
He's a real pro. Sportsman of the year cutting lights ️ drag racing
I'd put his light weight skinny ass in it to win race . Stand back and watch !

 

[Ragged Edge]

The enduro kinda burned that relationship to the ground, then dug a huge hole and buried it deep. Still a big head scratcher for me.

If you're never going to need the extra fuel take the system out. My vote would be it goes.

 

[sonicss31]

Never say never.

Oh they did!! No biggie, we won it. No more to prove. Had a great time while it lasted. They grew tired of a hard running outboard.

 

[War Canoe]

Merry Christmas all you Churchies….

Merry Christmas, took a food coma now I'm going to be up all night

Thanks for the kind words,but my michelen-man azz is pushing 230 these days

 

[lake p.a.l.]

Saturday rip session with JB on his StressEliminator will be AWESOME

 

[War Canoe]

The Green Monster got officially tattooed today. My son made custom vinyl stickers and carefully laid them on. We were all surprised how mean it actually looks. We also did the back of the engine cowl. We love a good theme boat. This one checks all the boxes.

Lake Pleasant AZ last Saturday with @HydroSkreamin & Zach in his new 255 Speedster. What a great day, thanks JB

 

[HydroSkreamin]

It really was a great day on the water, thanks for dragging me out there!

You guys know how to do it…even in the winter!

BOTH of your backseat passenger selections need improvement!

Very true
Even being over-propped & WAY overweight the ole 1987 Eliminator ran great.
Today we are moving the cruiser to Rusty Porthole where it will sleep & be staged for the Frozen Bun Run shenanigans tomorrow. Hopefully get some time in a few STV on the way there & our way home to Discovery Bay today.
Pic from in front of @Tank house in Oxnard on Sunday afternoon. Incredibly gracious host

Great having you guys as always Rob. Just wish we had some more time to hang. This work crap is BS! Thanks for dinner Sunday night too!!

 

[stoker2001]

Time to BLISTER the 1K mile Delta for New Years Day frozen bun Run 2025!LETS GO!!!!

 

[HST4ME]

Happy New Year Churchies!!

 

[sonicss31]

Snipes Pt today was great. Water temps a little chilly at 72*

 

[War Canoe]

We are set to go! New Years Day rip!!
Took the 32 off and put my 28 BBlades on. Steve will be running the 30 BBlades on the Monster.
This should change things up a bit !!

 

[HydroSkreamin]

Had so much fun with @lake p.a.l. & company Saturday decided to do it again for NYD, added in one of my coworkers jet boat and a 28 Daytona met up with us while we were stopped.

I’m digging the winter desert boating

How does that 255 with twin 300s perform? I think that is my next boat.

 

[War Canoe]

Delta New Year….it was an experience. Ran about 120 miles. Water was so nice.
Put the 28 BBlades on the Blue Canoe…it was very peppy, but it’s better on the Mirage. The Mirage ran my 30 BBlades and sizzled a 112 mph with no effort. We are considering this coming Sunday for more small boat ripping!
