Whats the story on your boat?
Would love to make it this year, but I won't have the boat back for a few weeks yet from the motor rebuild. Hope there's another one next year!

Overheating on plane...gonna replace the poppet valve, water pump, and gonna try to go ahead and replace the fuel line too (for maintance)...the thing is, this motor has never had much water pressure in all the 4 years that I have ran it...(less than 10 psi on plane) but I never got the overheat alarm until this year...
Do you plan to do the work yourself? How Mich time is involved?
Yeah, doing the work...not sure on how long.... http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif
I hope you get it fixed but if something not right you are welcome to fish with me. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif
Thanks spook, I can still use my boat, just can't run too far at a time.... http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/sweating.gif

Spook, GamblerSam, Flubyu I want to say thanks for a Great Time!! All of you made my weekend!! 3 Liter your not forgotten!! I appreciate everybody! What an excellent weekend! Couldn't ask for better weather, was very beautiful out! Thanks again everybody for allowing me to enter your circle! Spook had a great time listening to you, I learned a lot from you this weekend, thanks for tour service to the community and our great country. 3-Liter I would love to sit and pick your brain sometime when it comes to fishing! God Bless each and everyone of you and your families! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/USA1.gif
Sounds like you guys had a great time Wish I had been there. Brad (bought BlueSteels black Gambler) and I had our own little Rally on Eufaula. I was fishing our championship there and saw a Gambler up in a cove and it was Brad we did a little run down the lake to some fishin spots and did some fishin together. Nice fun but no fish. It was fun run side by side with another Gambler out on the water. His sure made mine look old and beat up though.
It sure was a great weekend. Herk I enjoyed meeting you and your family and thank you for your military service, flubyu it was nice to meet Lindsey and thanks for the shirt. Sam the ribs,chicken and sausage were in creditable what a feast! Ben I truly enjoyed fishing with you and hope we can fish again sometime. Hope we can get together again next spring it would be fun to get the rest of the family's to join in. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif
Spook I whole Heartedly agree. Next spring I'll bring the family for the entire weekend. This time I won't show up so Late!! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif
Guys, we both had a great time! Food was amazing as always, love sitting around visiting with everyone...sometimes I think 2 times a year just ain't enough!! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/popcorn.gif
Isn't that the truth! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/popcorn.gif
Awesome time Herk ! Enjoyed meeting your family and thanks for the seat pole! I will send you a flo thru kit so you can start playing with props. Great time with Spook, Ben & FluByu as well. Having 5 G boats together was awesome !!!! See you in the spring.
Yes indeed, is it spring yet?? http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/sweating.gif
Flubyu I agree!! Spring can not come soon enough! http://xs-s.com/zf/images/smile/embeer.gif
Sam I found out over the weekend that the prop I was running was seriously short on pitch. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/crying.gif It is a Predator 20P! Whats wrong with this picture?!?
I gotta get a new prop. Whats the thought onn Croxton's Razor 4's? or even a Bravo1?
I'm not looking to run 100mph just would like decent speed.
http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/popcorn.gif
Can't go wrong with either........razor 4 and Bravo are both excellent props for your boat. Go to the prop board and ask Mark which one and which pitch and he will let you know. He is the moderator there.
Cheers !

So were any fish actually caught?? any pics of the fish??
I think every one caught fish. Ben and I went out Sunday morning and he put us on a great spinner bait bite. We were fishing windy banks had a great time. No lunkers but nice quality fish. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif
