It don't mater much 'cause in the Minegar family everyone's a winner!

Understanding this is A. A Schiada and B. Parker, so treading careful not to ruffle any feathers, but is the "Skier Down" flag flying while skier is up, the norm along the strip ?

Or simply young person having fun kinda deal ??

 

[stokerwhore]

Man what an ideal setup with that boat and house. Life done get much better than that.

 

[Badchoices03]

Is a requirement of RDP to think Schiada's are beautiful boats or is it ok to think they aren't that cool.....asking for a friend of course...

I'd post Titty Pix but that would be pointless.

I prefer the looks of a V-Drive Vector over the Schiada. Hope this helps. ...then again I voted for Obama.

Maybe skier just got up and they are in the process of putting the flag down.....

That’s boat is beautiful. I sold it to him a few years ago, he’s been fighting the gremlins from the previous motor builder and owner for a few years. I’m glad it’s all sorted out and he can finally enjoy it.

Or I captured a murder in process.

Ahhhh, now that makes since, the man and the kid are lock in a struggle over control of the flag.

Thanks for the warning @Wheeler However I soon forgot of the warning and wanting to thank you. Then I ended up have to scroll down though all that water that should be diverted to Buckeye….. Please for the sanity of others don’t post any more of these threads even with a warning.

K, thanks, bye

I got stopped recently (blue and red rotating lights) because my flag was up in a holder on the Bimini while pulling kids on the inflatable...

I got "womansplained" by a cute young lady lifeguard that was old enough to be my granddaughter....

@Rattle Can Lou could best answer your question.

Well then, if you're old enough to have a granddaughter then shame on you for just being a "Lazy" flag raiser.

Last time I got a serious "Womansplaining", the cutey, young enough to be my granddaughter, was on the trigger end of a deck mounted 50 Cal. pointed right at me.
She was being damned right testy too, most likely embarrassed that her boat was so damned slow I could have smoked a cigarette while waiting for them to catch up after I'd stopped out of curiosity if they were chasing me just going in the same direction ??
Seems that in her opinion, I'd apparently gotten to close to the buoy/barrier line protecting the aircraft carrier as I was riding past on my jetski in San Diego Bay.
I told her that I didn't realize I couldn't approach the barrier line, so long as I didn't cross it.
In HER opinion I'd approached it in a threatening manner.
I apologized, told her I wouldn't do it again, in return, she didn't shoot my old ass.

But holding up a flag with a skier up, she'd have surely shot yer ass.

Sorry, I’m old school.
There is only one boat that fit the name “Suddenly!” and it was a Stevens owned and driven by the great Tony Maracich.

 

[skifaster]

To be fair, the Schiada "Suddenly" is about as old school as it gets as well having belonged to Bill Dunsmore Sr. and Billy. Pretty sure that name for them goes back to the 60's as well and who knows how many different boats? I'm trying to think which Schiada is pictured by Wheeler and if that is a recent picture? My Dad owned one of the old "Suddenly" boats at one time. It was a 1977 (maybe 76) 21 RC that we had as a play boat, but sold about 20 years ago.
And of course zero disrespect meant to Clank123's post about Tony Maracich.
@Wheeler is this a recent pic of the Suddenly Schiada?

Well to be Fair
I was out of line.
The old brain kicked in and I believe that Dunsmore Sr. owned the boat and Maricich drove for him!
Usually I’m pretty good with the old history.
Oh well!
Awesome that the Schiada is still around.
Now, if we could only find the old Stevens and restore it back to original!

Awesome, what year is the hull? The one my Dad had that used to be Dunsmore's was almost identical to yours with the wood grain. It was a 76 or 77.

Every one I've seen on the California side has that stripe.
