Only one question though... Who is the "jackass wheelie king of the launch ramp"? Dude totally sucks... Peopke trying to put their boats on the trailers on an already difficult launch ramp and here is spazoid making it even worse. If it were not for the fact that some folks here are pretty damn cool and stuck around to help each other out getting their rides on their trailers, I could have seen more than a couple boats end up on the rocks. I mean each village has to have their idiot... But bro... Seriously... After the first five minutes... You're good... We got it... You're a dick. 20 minutes of back and forth swamping boats at the out ramp is more than getting your point across.
Not trying to pick a fight... Or be an asshole... But seriously... I've seen this at two events now with the same clown and obviously he either doesn't get manners and boating edaquit, or just doesn't care. I'm hoping for ignorance... And perhaps saying something will bring to light an issue that can become a major issue in the future if it continues...
And perhaps this dude is the group hero and his antics the highlight of the trip for many... Don't care... Unsafe and disrespectful boating habits are hazardous and potentially dangerous to personal property and lives.

Was this the boat on Friday that hit the rocks on the other side?

I'm agreeing with you totally, but have no clue what you're referring to.

No the wheelie boat is green.. The boat that hit the rocks was an orange pickle fork I think

This one hit the rocks Friday afternoon after making who knows how many passes out front. It disappeared shortly after I took pics of it and we never saw it again.

I wasn't talking about the green Southwind... he's cool... he did his deal out away from other boats. I've seen that guy as well and he typically does his wheelie deal at low speed and away from other boats where he's not swamping parked boats or boats trying to get on or off the launch ramp.
This guy had the larger white, blue and yellow blower deal with the blue scoop. I was helping out a buddy try to float his boat and put it on the trailer because his starter quit working... and managed to get swamped... pushed into another boat and up on the rocks because of this guy blasting by about 15' away from the dock at the launch ramp. I mean who does that with other boats parked? Luckly, a Socal Jetboat guy in a green v bottom gave us a push and helped out. BTW... whoever that was... huge thanks from the sunburned furry fat guy on the white and blue Crusader! Then... just kept going back and forth... about 50' away from the launch ramp. Every single person trying to put their boats on their trailers had to avoid this guy and I'd say at least half a dozen while I was there were slammed onto the trailers and/or swamped.

I know exactly who your talking about does that every trip. Got my cp swamped by him last year at the big bend trip. I also not trying to start a argument but why would you even think that's cool when your next to boats throwing a huge wake?!?

Yeah I missed all that and I've never seen the other guy in the green be disrespectful to anyone out there..
But seriously how rude can you be!! .. The ramp is insane on a good day with that many people.. There's always that one guy!

James. That guy was at the SW Regatta last year. He was just at the CP Regatta a couple weeks ago doing that BS both down, AND UP River(kind of dangerous considering the traffic pattern allows for DOWN on the Cali side only). Hi speed both ways.
I remember that LostlakeGatekeeper and I were kind of nervous having the guy running 100 mph 20' away from us and both pushed our boats further inshore, behind some 'Blockers', LOL.
Hope he cools it this year if we show up. Not a good way to be friendly on the River. :o
