Were a week away from the First annual Southwind regatta. Super excited to see everybody!
I've got Multiple P.Ms about gas, launch, where the sandbar is ect... So ill throw this out there in a new thread.
ALL ARE WELCOME
We should have over 100 boats coming out. Yes the river rockets deal is the same day at Pirates cove.
the event is on the 21st

The Launch at McIntyre will be 5$ on Saturday. Its normally 10$. *** They don't Have Beer at the store there. Get it in town at albertsons or where ever***
They Have 91 octane gas
The sandbar is 3 miles north of Mcintyre on the right hand side, right before goose flats. If you don't know the river above that sand bar, i would suggest launching at mcintyre. The sandbars get a bit big and hard to navigate if you dont know them.
There will be off duty cops and firemen to keep things in check if they get out of hand
The cops are fine with loud headers and performance boats, If you do something stupid or out of line they will be on you.
Awards for best 18, Formula 1 T-deck, 19 Tunnel, 20 Cruiser, best in show and longest haul will be given out.
Cool stuff from b1 racing, socaljetboats, Robinson racing, Mcintyre mob and Mcintyre snob will be given out with the awards.
These will be given out @ 3PM
McIntyre snob is giving a 50$ gas card to the longest haul winner.
McIntyre mob has something for the worst Gel on the water ( its just for fun)
T-Shirts will be sold on saturday for 15 $$ starting @ 10 Am

Jake, talked to my brother today, he is at my place right now and said the water was super low. Even made him a little nervous on his stand up skis, and he is fearless on the fricking things. I'll see what tomorrow brings :thumbup:

Water was super low last weekend at lost lake also. I had to go to Parker to run my boat....they claimed is was because of work they are doing at the bridge in Parker. Water didn't even START coming up until almost 4:30-5 PM. I hope the best for you guys and be safe. Wish I could make it !

Looks like we will have water. The flow from Parker always matches the flow from the dam in Blythe. 8000 is the normal
