    SOLD a year ago

    and the girl I sold it to and subletted' my bouy f' up and lost my contract with the homeowner. That happened while I was in Mexico all summer surfing.

    Finding another bouy on TAHOE is not easy. I have feelers out but no luck so far. Towing it is not an option. There's big lines at the dock from tourists from early AM + they all drive like kooks so you might get rammed. Plus half of them have their wives launching and they usually jack knife so that is a joke scene

    Oh yeah I don't have a truck lol. I'll drop it and pull it twice a season for maintainance with a freinds truck

      Here's the one we just tried yesterday. Almost seemed like too much effect.
      He's currently only running 400 in the back locker though.

      - Moose, I might know somebody with a bouy. I'll ask him.

        Wow that looks like a nice suck gate with the metal. Is that metal bent at the angle or welded together? did you build this yourself?

          ^^^The guy who owns the boat has a buddy who has a metal fab shop. The thing weighs a ton. I think it could be trimmed down a ton. The next one is supposedly adjustable. It's not quite ready yet though.

          No dice on bouy, Moose. Sorry. I got my ears open and my feelers out.

            So which wave do you think will be better the gate wave when dialed or the listed wave?

              Dialed listed wave with a crew will still be better. In my opinion. But this way gets some of the lead out (-600), keeps people sitting where they want etc..

                Well either way, both waves look amazing! Nice job!

                    Finally installed a PSS dripless shaft seal. I can’t even fathom a dry bilge. 2005 24v

                    Sadly it’s probably going to hurt my wave. I bet the bilge always had a few hundred pounds of water in it.

                      Ha, secret ballast. I’m ready to make this leap with the PSS.

                      How’s the Bronco? I assume it’s been finished for awhile now ?

                        Finished?! Well I have decided it should be more stock, so turning it back to stock

                          That thing was incredible last I saw it. I think you just like the working on it part.

                          Good to see you pop up on the grid once in a while man. Hit me up if you’re ever down this way. I’ll buy a round.
