We forget the NJ get together thread?

[RWilson2526]

It just occured to me that we usually have plans for a NJ get together WAY before now.....its almost July already!....

Anybody interested and want to offer some dates? Last week in August is out for me, we are going to FL.

[step up here]

I was wondering about that myself! The only thought for me would be the weather since I would have to travel the ocean from Belmar NJ. Well their is always the possibility of loading up on a trailer. So lets see what others have to say.:head:

[smokeonthewater]

nilla wafers should be lightly soaked in rum and then layered with vanilla pudding and sliced nanners

That's way to soon for me to not show up. :hide:

I thought we had postponed it this year because of Sandy and the conditions in the bay? Has that changed?

[bgreene]

I could run the ocean right behind Step Up - so he knocks the waves flat and I ride in the flat water !! LOL.

No one told me it was postponed there 3000 boats out there every weekend

[Destroyer]

There was some kind of a thread earlier this year. Not sure if it was postponed or "lets see what happens". etc etc.. but I remember it being discussed briefly. Maybe I'm halucinating... (gotta stop sniffing those 2 stroke fumes) but I seem to recall it.

[macojoe]

well answer your pm lumber!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RWilson2526]

Sounds good to me for 7/27 if that works for anybody else....and yea Destroyer I think you hallucinated that one.

[bgreene]

Location please.........

[RWilson2526]

Location please.........

usual spot, Tices Shoal in barnegat bay. North of barnegat inlet. We want to see that new motor!

[captpete13]

I'm supposed to be towing that weekend. I can try to get off. The following weekend would be better for me.

[reelapeelin]

I'll be back one of these days!!...specially if Lee's ridin' w/me!!...we'll have the windows DOWN...:you:

[lumberslinger178]

[RWilson2526]

Up or back or are we talking the same thing? 8/3 is what we are saying?

[step up here]

Well the Step Up went up on the trailer a week ago for a heart transplant. Yep after 26 years of salt water being sea water cooled she cracked the block!
She will receive a new not reconditioned long block asp. Am talking about even a little more steam since some folks are upping their horse power,but let me tell you I won't be able to touch the 200hp outboards. I still have a alpha one drive which will limit my horse power. I hope I will be ready for Tices.:part:

[captpete13]

get er done Tommy. You have 3 weeks. Should be no problem. Looking forward to seeing everyone

One week to go! I am almost ready what a major job because I up graded a pre 86 mercruiser to a later model 350. Some changes were expensive some not so expensive but the bottom line is its all brand new with maximum horsepower applied to a alpha one. Now if Bennet Greene can make it, their will be three V-20's with new power plants.
Anyone else interested ?:nice:

[captpete13]

We were at Tice's last week. What a beautiful day to be out on the boat.

Sounds like a plan next year Reel, maybe the women folk can go, wouldn't that be a hoot :sun: or not :fight:

[RWilson2526]

Sounds like a pretty low turnout this year boys.....we'll leave the brow beating of those non attendees until next year. Lumber, sorry about your back....get that boat in the water.....or give me your slip....one of the two.

Tommy, are you still coming and whats your time frame?

.As its a small group, and the only definite for sure is pete getting there at 2:00 I am planning on exploring around the inlet and maybe outside in the morning and early afternoon and head back into tices around 1:00 or so.

If anybody is up there earlier call me on my cell phone 908-246-5660.

[step up here]

Far as I know Tommy (step up here) and I are planning on hooking up this Saturday th 10th. This is a second chance for all you local guys to get off your asses n on the water.

summer is waning fellas, get those boats out on the water.

[captpete13]

No problem Rob. Maybe another time. Hopefully next year will be a better turnout. Hope you guys have a good time. The weather looks good at least. If anyone needs a tow you can call me lol!
