Anyone Using Their Boats This Summer?!? Prove It!

[Illiana]

Man, i need some more action shots. Heres the setup but the only proof of use I have is my post last week about trying to chainsaw a stump with my boat. Currently down waiting on new prop (and hopefully nothing else). Close to 100 this year. Little guy learned to surf and greatly improved skiing.

Trying to get the 360 in before it’s way to cold it’s definitely wetsuit time.

You guys are animals! I’m on to hunting, boat went in for winterization yesterday.

How much water is left out there, Nick?? I haven’t been out there since August, and it was dropping fast.

Dang, my old *** eyes must be failing me. I didn’t look real close, I guess I assumed because it was you, and like 3 people use washoe.. Kirk has been running that flat out there, too..

My September and October got eaten by a wedding, street vibes, and work.. I got to Frenchman’s once in September, which was apparently the end of my season! I’ll plan better next year!!

That’s way to warm for October!^^

We’re High 50s for water and low 50s for air during the day. Not bad for Canada!

Only hit Boatober this last Saturday, but it was a fun one! Weather has been bad this month. This was our first trip out since the reunion. Water was glass and there were just a couple of other boats. No diehards like us though. Just fishermen. Air temp was upper 60's and water temp was 56-58. I thought it was ok. Livy and Lucas gave the water a shot. It's the coldest we have let them play in. Livy did great. Lucas ran the kneeboard for a few minutes then promptly quit, and wasn't too happy about the cold water. Ashlee wasn't feeling well so she kept the bow company and basked in the sun, under a blanket of course.

There is a great park just down the road from the lake. I always head there right as well pull off the ramp. I clean the boat there and let the kids play, and I might have a go at the zipline once or twice.

I'm afraid this is the sunset on our season. I have to winterize it on Saturday and run it up to Idaho on Monday. Stinks too as this Saturday looks like it will be great!

We had yet another great season. Our kids made HUGE improvements on the water. I don't think I could be more proud of them. Livy did a great job of fine tuning her carving and even attempted a few tricks. Ashlee went from getting up on the surf board and instantly falling to going ropless and being able to adjust her stance to move anywhere in the pocket. Lucas went from wanting only to swim behind the boat to jumping the wake on his kneeboard. Awesome to watch those! Our MVP of the year was my wife, Mary, who is deathly afraid of the water. After 4 years of boating and never even getting in the water, this year she grabbed a surfboard and went for it! She's still scared, but overcoming it. As for myself? Well I didn't make any real improvements. I do see a new board next season. My goal is to be getting air by the end of next year!
