Funny water maggot story (thread jack)
, one of the small block FX racers in Oregon came back to the docks after some testing and was pissed to beat all hell, threw his helmet on the ground, cussing, this f'n this and that, mother f'n SOB, bla bla bla, anyway's we thought he blew the engine or pump or something, turns out some dude on a heavily modified Sea Doo pulled up next to him while he was running flat out (like 80+) and the guy on the Sea Doo holding a video camera waved at him and passed him.
I can honestly say I have never seen anyone that pissed off in public, before or since.
My only regret is I did not get either event on video (was laghing too hard anyway).

I am putting together another trip in Sept. if anyone is interested. I think there may be one campsite left. However, for those that just want to make a day trip out of it or stay at a hotel and drive down you are more than welcome. Here's a couple pictures.
Jerry (78Southwind) and Jeremie's (78Cole) 72 V-Drive Hallett and Omar's (Beerjet) 72 Jet Hallett........I dig this picture. I have been trying to get the Halletts together for a long time. Thanks Omar for making the trip.

The smiles on my buddy and his wife's face says it all about this picture. A little bit of information about this boat. It's a 72 Hondo that was owned by my Buddy's dad for about the first 33 years of it's life. Infact, this was the first boat that I tried to learn how to water ski on when I was about 8 years old. When my buddy and I were in High School this boat was torn down and sat for over 20 years. My buddy had wanted to buy this boat from his dad for a long time. His dad agreed to sell it to him about 3 years ago and he restored the boat himself.

The Hallett caught this trampoline heading down river at about 2:00 AM on Sunday. I think if we weren't up when this happened we might have lost the Hallett. The trampoline hit the Hallett, pulled up the anchor and sent it down river about 30' until we got to it. It sure was a trip we couldn't believe our eyes. It took four of us to get it unhooked from the Hallett and bring it to the shore.

Brad
Cool pics I am jealous looks like the best day on the river was the day I needed to get back to work. Did the trampoline get torn down or did the rightful owners show up to take it home? Also, are you coming out for the AVI trip on 08/09 to 08/13 or the Blue Water trip on 08/15 to 08/17? We also have another trip back to Moabi on the 09/05 to 09/08.

Brad,
It was nice meeting you and thanks for posting the pics. What an outing.
Thanks to everyone for a great weekend. 8)
