Can't answer your question, but welcome to the board!
Whereabouts in Michigan do you splash your boat?

Now just to let you newbies know, It is a requirement that you go to Cumberland Awakening of the Horses code name AOTH.

Yeah, what Randy said. We can always use more 18's and 16's seems a little top heavy with 22's. Steve

All I can say is I spent two of all the years I have go in an 18 one mine the other was Steve's. What I can say is it was just as much fun as my 22 and that is a FACT. This year ia another decision of which one to take!!!!

Greetings All,
Bubba Dog here, I bought Jill's boat this Fall. T&J treated me like family, he said it was the "Donzi way", super good people. Looking forward to meeting more of the family. Michael

Nice to see some guys popping up around Michigan.

In regards to the guage question, the newer boats have the monster series from Livorsi. They are a biiger face and are individually drilled and mounted. I replaced the Livorsi II gauges in my 2001 22 with a billet face plate and the redline gauges from Livorsi. A lot of guys have done that here.

We spilt our time between Milford and Lake Cumberland. The drive is 7-8 hours, but is worth it to run at the Awakening of the Horses. People come from all over the country for this start of the season rally every year.

We DO need more smaller Classics at the run. Jill had an absolute ball running her Scorpion 18 last year. BD, part of the deal was you have to bring it back for AOTH!

I second that! 2008 was my first AOTH and it was a blast. The poker run is fun even if you're in a boat that is mysteriously taking on water...or at least that's what I hear. :wink:

Yes! It was taking on water, and lots of it. Still out ran some 20' cigs though.

My two cents, PAY ATTENTION ROADTRIP, AOTH the two years I went was fun, looking to bring the 33ZX in 2009. A GREAT event....

The Strike Group schedule is forming up, I deploy again Oct 2009 for 7 or 8 months, my 12th and last deployment, if I can be there in 2009 we will be.
Mark my words.

Need directions to the State Park though, no Jamestown ramp for my 33ZX.

New F350 Truck this year, engaged my woman, ready to travel.

is always the weekend before Memorial Day, so mark your calendars.

Bryan, we have access to a great ramp that we use for the SS.
You make plans to come, we will make sure you get to the water with no hassles...
