[jcyamaharider]

The weather is looking like it is going to cooperate and I am getting excited!!! Just noticed my new tag also...LOL.... "Jet Boat Lover"

 

[ar240owner]

I'm pumped !!! Also we are going to bring river newbies with us!!!!!

 

[trace]

Sitting the fence Matt, my boat is not ready, I haven't touched it yet, been working WWWAAAAAYYY too much overtime. Christy is writing on her PhD dissertation like a mad hatter day and night, she is trying to finish this summer, so she is going to be doing that a lot. I was thinking this may be the first weekend I get to do any boat prep and Christy will be writing. Of course who knows, we may get to Friday night and say screw it we're going. We are dieing to get on the water with everyone, but trying to keep it in perspective at the same time.

 

[jcyamaharider]

No fault in that Trace, we understand, and there will be plenty of time for boating this summer.

 

[jcyamaharider]

Of course you and Christy could ride along as well, we will be filling up to surf also!!!

 

[trace]

Thanks for the offer Jerry, much appreciated.

 

[mattschepker]

I know you guys are super busy!!! can't wait to spend some time with you guys out on the water. Jerry beat me to the punch but you guys are always more than welcome

 

[007]

Hey all, I think it is super cool that this cruise has gotten so big! Angela and I are involved in the AHA Heart Walk for work that morning. There is no way we'd make it back in time for launch...I appreciate the ride offers. Like trace, we are stupid busy...just in different ways. Hoping that all settles down in the next 3-4 weeks and there is some fun times on the water ahead with y'all. Enjoy the cruise and somebody do a little surfing for me!

 

[mattschepker]

I am officially ready for the spring cruise baby!!!

 

[ar240owner]

Me to , I just need to swap my impellers out !!!

 

[jcyamaharider]

We are going to be a eagles landing Marina at 10:00 and go up the Ilinos river to Mels dinner for lunch, then head back to our surfing area and I am sure a couple of people we will be filling up to surf so if you are interested in trying this I know 2 of our boats have full ballast capability, if the other person is planning on surfing or not I have no idea. After surfing we will head back to the sand bar for a fire and communication session. Did I leave anything out? Oh yeah this is a kid friendly trip, I have 2 girls 5 and 9 and I know sx210owner/wife will have their son there as well( roughly same age as my oldest daughter ).
