Title: My new boat!!
Post by: mpj1617 on September 21, 2010, 01:37:58 AM: **1978 Tahiti** Ford 460-Berkley pump. I picked it up for 3k. I have been looking for one for the last year, but could not find any thing real clean around my area. Already had it at three time since I picked it up four days ago!! Love it!!!

Since I dont have a boat right now, well, I am not heading to any place of water fun. :-\
No, I have never been down towards stockton for boating. Normally head North East to Camp Far West and sometimes Folsom Lake if I went to tempt my fate of getting a ticket.

Cool deal, maybe we can get some folks together next year and get some boats out on the delta... I am good friends with the folks out at windmill cove, we can make that a meet spot.
