My old '72 Chrysler crapped out on my twice coming home to the marina after the weekend in my houseboat...
I don't know if it was upgraded to electronic ignition or if it still has points. Seems like it was flooded, or starving, or something. But water was spraying from the motor too so I need to find out what's leaking - only when the motor is running...

it is hot as was expected

and for some reason they turned our community water off last night

In Calif., if I keep all my receipts, I can claim the taxes paid on the gasoline for a refund since it's going in a boat.

Ya, just learned I can do that in Texas too. But same deal - 'no' I don't want a receipt.

That sucks man! Hope it's an easy repair. How was Glendo though? Looked a little choppy in some of your pictures.

Glendo was AWESOME on Saturday and early yesterday morning. Then the wind came along and it sucked a lot. I will never go up there again when the forecast says "windy". Wyoming is a whole different beast when it comes to wind.

Picked up soem metal in the new trailer tire last nite! Flaaaaaaat!

having a hard time getting my surf wake dialed in....full front surf side bag, full rear surf side, and 11.0 mph with taps from 1-5....

Maybe the custom bags are in order?


Seems like wave is tall enough, but lacks push? I have to be right on the swim platform to have enough push....maybe its the board?

Some disagree but I never run anything in the front. It seems like my wave loses power when there is weight in the bow. I run the custom sac and 10.8 - 11.2 with taps 1-6 depending on how many people are in the boat and the lake conditions.

Tell me about it. Glendo almost claimed my RZ2 when it was brand new. Storm kicked up some 40+mph winds and the waves were instantly 3' tall and just rolling over the bow filling it full of water. My Tsunami pump for the manual fill bags is the only thing that kept that boat from sinking. I'm not joking either, the water was almost up to the seats and full throttle only netted about 10mph or so.

Yep, if they say windy we do not go out,that is probably 35-45mph if they say breezy we probably wont go out, breezy up here is over 20-25mph. Calm is 10-20

Saturday was awesome though

It's already 95 outside here. It's a dry heat though..

Humidity is a whopping 9%. That's not helping the fire situation.
