I've been on the water since Saturday just waiting on you guys ;-). Looks like the wind won't play nice for Saturday (20+ knts out of the north) I'll be out there Thursday and likely Friday if the storms hold. Saturday is questionable based on waves/small craft advisory. If you're out there just look for the fancy pumpkin boat um the only one I've seen in the orange livery even up here.

Too early to tell really. I have hung out at portage breaker wall area before due to weather as well.
I was out there Sunday!
Send me a message if you are going on Saturdays

We have been to the Chicago air show several times. Really cool from the water, but always Been a long day for since we boat down from waukegan.

Hammond from the north and portage from the south or east. It's a 10 min trip down the idle zone and then a 5 min trip to the staging area

 

[Speedling]

I always go portage because we hit up the warm water discharge earlier in the day.

Here's a part of the show from the Atlantic Ocean, a few weeks ago. Thunderbirds chime in at about 6 minutes. Dolphins at about 26.30.

Anyone headed to the lake today? I'll be on the west side of the staging area at the middle pyramid buoy. Orange SeaDoo 210SP with tower. They practiced 2x yesterday once in the late am, then again early afternoon. See you out there.
