Out on Mozingo Lake again today. Water temp of 76 degrees, whopping one degree increase since the last time, I actually got in though.

Backed into the dock slips twice perfectly to pick up and drop off the wife, but for the first time in over 3 years owning this boat I absolutely blew the trailering after we were done today. Doesn’t matter how good you are, sometimes the wind gets the best of you I suppose. No damage, but the pride hurt a little haha. I did see a friend of ours at the same time suck it up trailering their 150k dollar wake boat, so that made me feel better ???

Cool random pic of the clouds on the way home:

Its about an 800 foot walk down a hill to the camp store, from there down a slight hill to the marina and a 200 foot walk down the trail to my slip Site-Map copy.jpg

Successful first outting. Everything worked as it should. Ran her really hard while towing the oldest on the tube. Felt good to get her out and stretch her legs. Also the impact graphics were definitely the way to go. Ran into our contractor that did our renovations and he said that has to be the best looking boat on the lake. He just might be right.

Suke-
Great pics. I assume Jordan Lake? Mamma seems a little burned also..:)
Heading out Saturday here at the NC coast. Boat ramp is 2 streets over in my neighborhood which makes things great!
 
Finally got the boat out after several weekends of driveway boating. I took the day off to boat to lunch with my son and his long time friend, my son from other parents. We all had a great time.

Harris lake. Jordan is about 30 mins from our house and Harris boat ramp is 5 miles from our doorstep. Mama got fried the day before at the pool. Forgot to put sunscreen on, whoops! Part of why we went out in the evening so she wouldn't have to worry about getting more sun. LOL!
 
Impromptu date night with my Wife. Took the Waverunners to a steak and lobster dinner and some sight seeing. This beats the hell out of dinner and a movie by so much I couldn’t just post one picIMG_5885.jpegIMG_5883.jpegIMG_5877.jpegIMG_5871.jpegIMG_5870.jpegIMG_5866.jpegIMG_5860.jpegIMG_5862.jpegIMG_5848.jpegIMG_5889.jpegan.
