Who was the first RDP inmate that you met in person and where? Someone you didn't already know. If you met a group at the same time, who was the first person you introduced yourself to?

The first one I met was Steveo143 at Camp Far West last Summer.

EDIT: The first active member I met was Marko & Hallet at Needles (Met RD & River Diva briefly there also).

Well outside of meeting RD at the boat show 10 years ago or so, it would be Duffster. I think we both signed up about the same time (besides we live in the same town).

I met Nord & Hammer about Noon setting up the booth as soon as I walked up. I remember meeting you, but I thought it was later in the day at the booth or Mad Dog's. I guess that is what happens when you meet 50 people in one afternoon. LOL.

I met Her454 before RDP got going via the other site.
Then, I guess it was RD himself when we drove down to Parker.

Mondorally. Went to highschool with him long before the boards. Hadn't seen him in about 10 yrs & one day out of the blue, get a pm on HB saying - "I think I know you". Pretty cool to reconnect.

Not sure. It was back in 2004. One of the few below:

OGShocker as I test drove with him
Kachina26 in Havasu
Force 26 now Garrrrrrrrdog was probably with K26 at the time.

Maybe it was Sigus as he was my Havasu neighbor.

I met Nord last year during Memorial Day weekend at RD's house. I rented the house next door and didnt even know it was RD's house till Nord introduced himself. Funny thing is, RD wasnt even there as Stacy was about to deliver.

I guess it would actually be Bense as we went to HS together although that was many years before Hotboat.

I think it would be John West and Froggystyle, when I bought a Carrera from Ultra.

It was the end of the season. John was eager to unload it. I was happy to get a good deal.

John was a straight shooter and easy to deal with. Wes took me for a test ride out at the nearest lake. He did the paperwork, and had it cleaned up. I picked it up the next day.

Since then I have met a ton of cool people, and some great friends. Although it is a little embarrasing to have to answer the question..."How did you guys meet"?......Uh.... on the internet.... :rolleyes: :D

Yes, I met you also...but I met Marko & Hallet when I first got there. Met you a little later. I guess I needed to be more specific...If you meet a group of people at one time, who's hand did you shake first. LOL. :D:D

Look at it this way Carl, I may have met them first, but you are featured in my Needles Street Fair Video...Marko & Hallet aren't. :D

Back in the Hot Boat days. Had seen a picture of his 29' Shockwave and saw him and it being blown from one side of Katherine's Landing toward the other. Ran (well, sauntered) down toward where the boat was gonna hit the dock. He had it fired by then and back into his slip. Wandered over and introduced myself, he handed me a BL and well, the rest is history!

Just Electric and Bigamist long before RDP and HotBoat. I used to hang out with them both at the SFV street races many years ago.

The first person I met off the boards after joining was H20Toie (Dan). He invited the wife and I to his house long ago for a UFC fight.

River Diva, Mrs. Forenic and I think Mrs. Monderally? It was at a Christmas breakfast for the Ladies of RDP! Then I met HCAPV (Phil Velto) on a cookie delivery run:D and MilkMoney;) Also met several RDP'ers at a gathering at the Buffalo Inn in Upland. My sister fell in love with Whiteworks!!!!

Most of the people I've met from here I knew before the site started.

The first "forum" people I met were Roger the cop (don't remember his screen name), the guy that bought Froggy's old boat (Clownpuncher?), Uncle Gig, JetBoatRich, and Hallett Dave. HD&Boatrider was next (the old crowd will know who that is ;) ), with RTJas, Hustler, Campbell Carl and Hootersled. I'm sure there are others, but I can't remember right now.

Haven't met anyone, there is a little distance factor going on, but if anyone is going to go to LOTO this year let me know ( I have never been there but its a short drive)..I have put DS on my bucket list though, to see shit I cant afford and maybe hitch a ride on a better boat other then my tahoe....I hang here for some unknown reason other then people seem really cool, especially after the recent purge, it just seems like old times for the last two days and its very nice. I did talk to RD on the phone one time about a magneisum anode that I was going to ship him.

It was BoardsmanJ followed closely by their dog Maki running across the bow of my boat so he could eat my sandwich ;-)

Miss that group

Are you saying you don't like your current group?

I warned you that you'd lose friends hanging out with me :D
