Thanks Bryan. At least I always know spring is here. The lake is opening up and the boats will be on the water soon.
Happy birthday! Any good presents yet? Like some big fun motors? Or a shiny new baby dyne? Or anything else that's fun to play with?
Hey River Rat - have not actually received them yet, but a new pair of 250HO's is going on the twin rig, and 3 new 150 E-Tecs are on the way for the triple. All tolled, we'll have 8 new V6's this year. Alot of work to do in April, but it sure is fun unwrapping all those presents. I think I'll be able to swap out to a 250HO on my boat also. It will be nice to run that with the 1.71 gear ratio as I should be able to run the 16 pitch and get 50+ out of it. Also adding (4) Polk DB651 speakers, Clarion marine amp driven by an iPod. We're doing the same stereo install in Mike's 1990 20 footer with the 250 E-Tec. We'll let you know the results. He is also getting a new interior done as I type this. And we're getting 10" of snow today.
Where does a guy sign up to get presents like that??? OK, There is a lot of work to go along with it, but what a ride. Happy Birthday, Erich!
Sorry I missed it, Must-Ski. I tried to post a birthday wish from my blackberry that day but I see it didn't "stick." Happy belated....
Thanks all. Mark - any idea how the lake levels will be this spring with a decent winter? We still have ice in Beaver Dam which is rare. Usually we are out by my birthday. We'll be up north July 26 to Aug 1 for sure and hopefully another long weekend in August as well.
From everything I've heard it should be better this year with the runoff from the snow, not to mention the pressure on the DNR to change the dam levels. I've got my fingers crossed...
