« on: October 13, 2011, 11:02:48 AM »
Have a 78 Eliminator with a original gel coat,,Very multicolered,Think about painting it,,Anyone have a good experience with this,,Just seems to that the paint wouldnt hold up,crack,peel,with the flexing, etc 
,and do you paint the underside to?Seems like it would be real slick.

Lake Mead / Re: MEAD October20th
« on: October 13, 2011, 10:56:45 AM »mead at this time of the year is great! If your staying in henderson I would use boulder harbor...for the lake mead visitor I would turn left out of boulder harbor and head towards sandy...its about a 15 minute boat ride from boulder harbor...that the hangout for most boaters on lake mead...you can always check out the dam too, but that is off to the right from boulder harbor...for the record to get into mead your gonna need a 20 dollar bill...10 bucks for your truck and same for your boat...the pass you will be buying is good for 10 days so you only gotta buy it onceAwsome,is sandy a sand BAr or a place to set up a easy up?And is it Beachable for the boat?And is there a sign that says sandy or will i know when i get there
