Hey Oz, I already got some battle scars from skinny water!

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

now that its broke in you no have to worry anymore!!

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

So, what you're tellin us is that you added some character to your Skeg? Well, wellcome to the club! I've got about an inch worth of character thus far, and I'm sure it aint the last!

I'm convinced mine runs better since the reworking of the skeg :P

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

Yeah, Guys...you're right...now I don't have to sweat it anymore... ;D...

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

Oz , I wish that I could get mine in the water in order to rub the skeg in the sand a little . Still waiting for the concrete to cure...

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

labii, your situation up there really bums me out...hope the work's done and you're V20in' soon...what's it lookin' like... :-[

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

I was told today worst case May 10th . They are going to do some testing over the next couple of days that will tell them if it is hard enough to withstand the weight of forklift/boat . There is a chance that we get in a week or so sooner . The only good thing is that the wind has blown for about two weeks non stop . But I'm sure ready to get on the water . My warranty is running and my new motor ain't !!

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

I was cursin' the wind last week while we were at Sunset, but I'm glad it's doin' you some good... ;D ;D...

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

Reelapeelin , let me know when your down that way next . If by the grace of god my boats in the water I'll meet you in Southport for a cold beer .

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

Hey, labii...that sounds GREAT!!...stick some on ice now, cause next trip to Sunset is already on the books for wk of June 18...is there a good ''waterin'-hole'' w/a tie-up in the ditch up there or will this be BYOB (Bring Yo Own Brewski)? ;D ;D

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

WE ARE ON ! It may not look like it , this is a great water front bar&grill . It's also only about a couple of miles out to Bald Head Island.

Soon as I saw casual and overlookin' yacht basin...I'm SOLD...looks like a nice little scooter-poot up the ditch from Sunset... 8)...been meanin' to make it up that way, looks like a good time to go!!... ;) ;D 8)...

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

It is about a 20 mile run for me . It should be about 1/2 way between us . It is a very casual spot . Beer is in a serve yourself cooler and food is served at tables out on the dock.

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

That's about what I's figurin'...hopin' it's flat enough to run out front...all those No Wake Zones are a pain... :P...but the Provision Co looks like it'll make it worth the while either way... ;D...

labii...We're drivin' in on Sun. and departing on Sat...are you gonna be able to get together during the week, M-F?

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

With this much notice it should not be a problem . I too would like to see a flat day . I love running down the coast + the Cape Fear River can be a bear when the wind and tide are not working with you.

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

Hey guys, looks like me 'n labii gonna snap a few cold ones in Southport in June wk of 18-24 ;D...with OR without your boat, come if you can...he'll have his V20 and I'll have mine, so room to ride... ;D 8) ;D 8) ;D 8)...

Whadda ya think, labii?? ;) ;D ;D...you reckon Provision Co's got enough cheeseburgers for this crowd?? ;) 8)...

I see on their sign they got "ADVISE''...I knew I's gonna like this place... ;D ;D...

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

That would be cool ! At least some of you guy's that are close should try to make it . It is a fine area to vacation and the fishing is great.

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

I KNOW YOU'D LIKE TO COME TO SEBASTIAN, BUT THE PREVIOUS TRAMA SUFFERED HERE CAUSES YOU TO BREAK OUT IN SWEAT!

Re: Honda not NEW anymore...
 

If you'd known my aunt Johnsie, you'd know how RIGHT YOU ARE :o :o :o...if she didn't think you were in the right place, she'd MOVE YA!!...I'm gonna ''buck up'' one of these days and make it down there...sweats or not!! ;D ;D...buzz on up to S'port in June...I guarantee there's a COLD ONE w/ Grand Pubah written all over it!!... 8) 8) 8)...wish you would...
