Title: Blythe Meet Feelers
Post by: alamojimmy on March 23, 2010, 04:33:34 AM
Looking at either May 15th and 16th or May 28th and 29th.

It is very difficult to please everyone but, input will be helpful to ensure max participation or at least max availability to everyone.

Plenty of camping if you want to throw a tent

RV Hookups if that is your deal-pretty cheap last year

Dry RV parking too

Hotels in town 7 mile drive

Double wide trailer that sleeps alot of people. I'm going to try and get that set up if it is still available.

We need to have a firm date by early next week (like Sunday 28th of March) if possible. Will start to plan and make arrangements after that.

Fire away! O0

I believe Jimmy is working these dates out for the month of MAY

Either weekend works for me Jimmy.

Can you get some pricing for the RV spots and tent camping?

I vote for the 15th and 16th. If the trip ends up being the 28th and 29th I won't be able to make it. (already made plans that weekend)

 16th 17th is my vote.  The 28th and 29th we are supposed to go to walters camp but I could blow it off if need be.

I'm game either way, the later date would be fun, just so I can piss off the ex-wife again about the kids trip back east..........

you know i will be there. i just called mcintyre to get my canopy replaced. and yes your trailer will fit there. it does not matter how big it is. there is room. i think to camp it is like 20 bucks. not sure if that is a day or the weekend. I am a perm resident so i dont really know what it cost to stay there. but i will call them back and find out. or jimmy will. Jimmy we should plan it for one of the weekens that mcintyre has the band out front. that is usually pretty fun. but either way every weekend there is a blast.

Title: Re: Blythe Meet Feelers
Post by: alamojimmy on April 07, 2010, 10:12:19 PM
I'm trying to get the trailer for that weekend but no luck yet. I have emailed and called but no returns yet. Yes I was there this past weekend however, I was either too drunk or dealing with someone else who was too drunk to check in to the store and try to get the trailer set up.

I will post prices for camping, parking, hotels shortly.

Can't wait for this to happen. Going to be a great weekend.

Title: Re: Blythe Meet Feelers
Post by: Willow Wog on April 10, 2010, 07:22:03 PM
lemme look im sure I have a side shot of it somewhere..... It tripped me out when I first saw it too..

Here ya go believe it or not this things a tunnel hull...

I thought I had better pics of it but I can't find um.. It runs pretty hard for a 22 foot jet with a factory chevy 502 and 40 gallons of fuel  :thumbup: I think it needs an impeller change tho
Title: Re: Blythe Meet Feelers
Post by: GlassCutter on April 10, 2010, 08:45:15 PM
That's pretty cool but I sure wouldn't want a wave coming in over the back.   The hull design looks a little "unfinished" back there to me.   I still have my first boat which was a Horizon.  Kinda have a soft spot for them.  Thanks for sharing the pic.  :thumbup:
Title: Re: Blythe Meet Feelers
Post by: IRRebel on April 10, 2010, 11:03:57 PM
CHRIST!! That thing has almost as little freeboard as my Pickle does! and it's a mini day??   :screwy:

Just how much beer are you guys carrying in that thing!!

First, Call Roger Finney for a splash guard.  :thumbup:  Might save your life.

Second, Be careful with full power hard turns unless at full speed! (I think I shared the why's of that maneuver once!) These things teach ya and QUICK! Some of the PB Eastside crew were witness to THAT momentary lapse of reason!

Good lookin boat tho! I like it!

You can make Reservations. Aqua has the phone number to the store where you can set it up. I lost the number.

Aqua, can you text me the number so I can call and get prices of everything. Once I get them I'll post them in the new thread for the sign up or whatever.

I'm ready to go!

My dogs are dumb and will not be there that weekend. They are not trained or well behaved or whatever you want to call it so they will not be coming that weekend. They are better on the small weekends when there is not a ton of people there. They do love it though.

LOL! good thing, If Hallet Dave IS there, I'd hate to see a fatality to report!  :sly:

My dogs are scared to death of the boats! Tried twice with them! Last time, at Bartlett, RJ was holding Moo, who, as soon as I rolled into the Pickle out of the NWZ jumped outta his arms and cowered at the very tip of the bow under the deck shaking. Becca was holding Ruger, roughly 1/2 the size of Moo and was feverifhly hitting my shoulder from behind me "Stop, daddy, STOP!" So I dropped it to an idle, and then saw what had happened.

Hard not to laugh, truley, he had scratched her a lil, she says he bit her then pissed all over her! She was soaked, the seat soaked......idled back in to the beach and the kids took turns. One watched the dogs while the other went for a ride.....went like that ALLL DAYYYYY!

Never again! Pussy dogs! And I can't keep either of them out of the pool or away from the sprinklers??? :screwy:

WTF? When did this happen?

I know it is very difficult for a jet boater to ride in someone elses boat, especially when that boat is a daycruiser but, you got a seat in mine if you want it and just want to come to hang out.
