Sorry I have been delaying posting the info for this trip. Next big SCJB event will be at Big River August 15th - 17th.
This is normally called the 'Gord Trip', but unfortunately, Gord and Marylou are unable to make the trek down from Canada this year, but in true form, the party must go on!

At the Big River Inn.
It's really small so I'm gonna say if you don't call immediately, you'll probably have to stay in town which is about 10 minutes away but right in the middle of town.

Ha, so my girls Dad just hit us up saying he wanted to go this to the river this weekend... He wants to run his new v-drive!
And if SCJB.com is going to be in Parker the same weekend, looks like we are going to be in Parker. Not sure where we are going to stay yet. But we will have to stop by and meet everyone.

Please understand we are not going to be in Parker. There is a dam that separates these 2 areas. We will be south of the dam, Parker is on the north side of the dam.

Thank you! I did not realize there was a damn below Bluewater. The last out by Parker was when I was 8, it's a little foggy. I'm not sure where we are going to be, I know he really likes Blythe. But that's only because they live in Yucca Valley and can be at Blythe in a little over and hour.

NOT that it will be happening anytime soon, but this thread popped up, and it hits on a question I've been wondering.
Are there spots for RV's? You guys always mention booking hotels and such, but I haven't noticed anything about RV's, or maybe I just didn't see it?
Anyway, after my little girls' treatments, and Chemo sessions get more in a routine and we know for sure what we are dealing with, our normal 2-3 times a year SoCal trips will hopefully begin again.
We have an '05 24 footer, and take I-15 all the way down to SanDiego/ Escondido from I-90 up here. Plus it looks like I-95 is right near by too, which is also a straight shot (although a "back road") to I-90.
Anyways, just been wondering, and figured this was a good time to ask.
Thanks, Ken

Yes, there is the Big River RV Park close to the Big River Inn. It would be awesome if you and your family could make it to one of these events in the future. :thumbup:
-
Ken there is a RV park that is called Big River RV park. You can google it and get all the rates.
-
Perfect, thanks, I did the google, but wasn't sure of the area, and wanted to ask to be sure.
Brad we/ I'm working on that!! While the excitement of hanging with you guys and getting on the water, and just having fun, has somewhat and understandably petered out for my wife. I'm still keeping the dream alive.
And no matter what, my baby girl comes first and foremost above anything, but we still have to live life, and want her to have fun no matter what. And since the boat was a father/ daughter item,( we bought it together, we cleaned it together, we sat in it and made motor noises together, ) she is still enthusiastic about it.
It will happen......eventually.

That is where I am staying. Big river rv park. Maybe I will see u guys. 🚤💨

Ken we also make a couple trips each year to the Avi... In the Laughlin area... The avi also has a great campground on site. My hubs and I have stayed there before too. Keep that in mind also... I hope that darling little girl of yours is hangin tough!! 😊

Thanks heather, will keep that in mind too. She's had a few bumps in the road and trying to get stronger. Sooner than later I hope.

Ken have you ever been to big river with your boat? Not too many 24'ers on the water that I can recall. Due to the water fluctuation most the big boats stay on the strip.

Hey guys and gals, the wife and I are trying to make the trip this weekend, just curious about some of the details.
Where is everyone launching and is there a meet up spot?
I think we'll be heading out Friday afternoon, staying at one of the hotels in town, spending the day on the water with you guys Saturday and unfortunately heading for home Saturday evening (we have a prior engagement on Sunday).

awesome you guys are thinking about coming - it was good meeting you guys at the long beach races.
Here is some info for first timers:
Here is a map of where the launch ramp is and the cove up river we normally hang out....
The park is just down the hill from the Big River Inn, if you google map search "Big River Community Services District", it will take you right there. Once you find the park entrance, you go down the hill, and turn right after the toll booth ($25/day to launch - I'm STILL working on a better deal). We use the ramp all the way down at the end on the south side of the park.
The cove we hang out in is out of the current, but its always good to have a good anchor with you. The current is strong on this stretch of the river. Dont try to launch/retrieve by yourself, there is always plenty of us around willing to help. :thumbup:

Awesome, thanks Brad!
I'm really looking forward to hanging out with all of you guys.
I've got a mushroom type anchor but I might pick up one of those triangle anchors from West Marine.

I know Hallett Dave has been warming up for Dumas.
But I don't think I'll be ordering take out at the Cantina though. LMAO :P
Oh never mind, I better go work on the boat.

Don't waste the space bringing the "shroom", it won't help you here.
Now, if you are serious about anchoring your float, I'd recommend an old diesel crank or a cylinder head that you don't mind getting wet.

What size box anchor are most of you using?

I think there are s, m, and lg. Pretty sure I have the medium one, but it is one heavy mo fo and overkill for a small boat in most conditions.

Med. The small is for seadoos 8)
-
They have a baby, small, medium and large. I have a small now and hoping it will work at Big River. It has worked good every where else so far. They say it is good for 20' but not real sure about different conditions. Make sure you get about 6' of chain and then go to rope and it will set a lot better.
-
Most guys are using them in the current at Big River Park and they hold fine.
We even hook 2 or 3 boats together on one anchor with no problems, just make sure they're set good !
We have the small for our 19' tunnel and Dave uses the same for his Hallett mini day.
For this particular trip most of the time is spent either on a sand bar, protected cove or regular bar anyways. LOL

I heard that the small will hold a 26' in the current....
That's what mine is and I've had 3 boats tied to it in the current.

Ok just got off the phone with Big River Parks....they are working out a deal for us. Mention SoCalJetBoats and get into the park to launch for $15 each day (normally $25 a day). Thanks to brchris for getting the connections to make this happen.

Well almost, still have to put on the new CF numbers (I've been running the old Arizona numbers with expired tags).
Thanks to Brad and Chris for getting the deal worked out for launch fees.

Well call me a liar. I am FED UP with this park and their BULLSHIT.
The lady called me back and said they are revoking the discount because she didnt get proper approval from the board. Why the hell did she give it to me in the first place.
So NOTE - there is NO DISCOUNT this weekend as promised.

Uh oh. Damnit selling my boat is an instant regret. Whoever says "the best days of a boat owners life are they day he buys it and sells it." Well those dorks owned a shitty boat and had shitty friends.... The best days of a jet boat owners life is the days he's at the river with his buds....

Ok, the SoCalJetBoats launch discount is back and approved properly by the council. But here's the deal, you need to have a SoCalJetBoats.com sticker on your truck or something proving your with the group. I have a bunch of stickers with me this weekend. Find me tonight or tomorrow morning if you need one.
