Hello Chickster: Tom Riggle (Tomahawk) and Joe Prussiano (Joe P.) will be arriving Thursday for the duration. Looking forward to seeing you guys again.
While that is true, it's not a likely result. We kept calling them from the road to see if we could get in and finally, late in the day, they said OK. I guess some of the woody guys make reservations...
I guess, if we do smack a log, the boat simple returns to it's natural state - toothpicks! Yes Mark, we plan to be at Mt. Dora in March, once again. We'll see a bunch of you guys there.
Y'all...
If anybody's interested, there is a gathering of antique and classic boats this weekend, October 7 and 8, at Jamestown Resort on Lake Cumberland, KY. Should be about 40 old boats there, mostly...
I drive up there a couple times a year. We just spent two weeks in the area and, in fact, did a couple laps around the Van Dam facilties just to see it myself. They were working on some of their...
Indeed, there are withdrawal issues. The Donzi is probably the coolest boat of all time - IMO. However, my boat went to a guy who will look after it with even more care than I. Some of the Donzi...
Randy - that dark blue 22 at Lake Cumberland last year was, and is, Byron Scholle out of Cinncinatti. Just FYI. He is probably there right now with his latest tricks!
Just FYI - this prop can be easily rehubbed for use on a Bravo or Alpha drive.
Thank you gentlemen. Actually, this was not an official ACBS judged show. Each of the major show sponsors selected their favorite boat from the show. The headquarters hotel, Lakeside Inn, selected...
We'll be there. (Tom and June.) Look for a woody inscribed "Slow Dancing." Joe and Deb Prussiano will also be on hand for lunch Saturday with their Grand Craft "Then & Now." It's a whole new (old?)...
Scott Boldt may have one of the AOTH videos left - they're VHS. Cracker Jack has the evidence from the Eufaula event - it was his camera! Great idea Scot.
Scot - June and I are sorry to hear of your loss but, it is good that you and your Dad had such a great relationship. Our prayers are with you.
John - which slip numbers will you be in?
Pismo - well, yes, I guess. What I did was install the Stainless Marine exhaust and change props at the same time. I picked up about three mph but really don't know how much to attribute to the...
I used the Stainless Marine kit on my '96 22 Classic with 454 Mag. Complete bolt on installation. No troubles and it works.
Most of the guys I know are using Stainless Marine as well. Besides,...
Jerry - you're welcome pal. It's not autographed but I'd be glad to sign it for you. :rlol:
Yep, that's the plan. We'll stay overnight, pick up his boat and head back on Saturday the 15th.
Ted...
Jerry - I bought 4 of them a couple years ago. Still have one extra left. Brand new. It's yours for $40 if you want it. Buy me an MGD and I'll bring it to you on the 14th.
Sweet 16 : Lake Cumberland, KY for the AOTH Donzi gathering. This year, May19 to 22 at Jamestown Resort.
Several points here:
1. Both Chrome G and Rick S are running new boats with a new engine/drive package. Different than most here. Therefore, what I am about to say may not apply to you guys - then...
Good idea to take your prop to a prop shop to have it repaired. Then take it out and see what top rpm and speed you get. Also, note your impressions of acceleration and if there is any undue...
I have and they suck. They sent me three of them to try. They were slow, ventillated and the rpm's didn't make sense with the different pitches provided. They look pretty wild though. For what it's...
Another thing to check here: some of us have a tendency to "neaten" things up using cable ties. Due to the way the levers in the control box rock when moving, the cables need to be able to move...
Scott - probably right about the lightning. Hasn't worked at all on mine but that seems to be Crabarelli's favorite on his Crit. Filling in the vent holes, as Randy has done, may be the key with the...
Rick - ditto on the Bravo for the Classic. It'll screw up your handling. I've heard good things about the Hydromotive. If you have the chance, try a Turbo 1 27" or a Turbo Lightning in a 26 or 27". I...
