    Foil Boarding - Loyal to the Foil

    Not being able to hold the board against her feet is why she started that way. Now she won't try it heels down. But what ever gets them on the water is fine by me. @brddog it exactly sure how long. But it puts you right on the wake. I just measured it, 21ft.

    Foil Boarding - Loyal to the Foil

    Had my best success yesterday. Getting slack rope for a little bit. I really need the longer mast. The pump technique is next.

    According to my boat the water is a nice 140 degrees. We were on 4 mile. The cove is on that map you posted over the weekend. Just looked at that link...swing cove. That's my favorite on the south end of the lake

    NMEA COMM ERROR

    Got this error yesterday. My water temp is not displaying, so I assume that is the problem. It was also reading 15 degrees high. Where do I start troubleshooting this? Loose wire connection in the dash or has the probe gone bad? I can live without the temp, but doesn't the depth come from the...

    We went to Yosemite, sequoia and Joshua tree last week. It snowed, a lot! Saw bear tracks that were about an hour old in the snow.

    Foil Boarding - Loyal to the Foil

    Now in have to learn how to edit. It way cooler zoomed in. I tried 14.5 to 16 mph. 15 seems to be my speed for now.

    Foil Boarding - Loyal to the Foil

    I finally got a good day of riding in today on the foil. Still with a long rope, and mostly out of the wake. But on the foil.

    Thanks for the info. I still haven't gotten around to fixing it. But that adds to the decision process

    To BEE or not to BEE (Honeybees)!

    I'd say pretty good. But may swarm experience is limited.

    Lake lanier

    Duckett mill has a dock for the ramp but not the campground. There are plenty of spots you can bring the boat up to shore.

    To BEE or not to BEE (Honeybees)!

    Finally got a swarm call I was home for today. They were on this guy's out side TV bracket and outlet box. I was a bit harder to get them off the house and into a box. I ended up leaving the nuc box there for the night to see if I can get the rest of them in it. I'm pretty sure I got the queen...

    Foil Boarding - Loyal to the Foil

    I switched the mast back to the short one because the kids liked it better. But now I think I will go back. Breaching is usually what kills me. This season I should get way more time on it, my son has gotten quite good at driving the boat.

    Duckett mill has been my family's go to spot. There is a ramp right there if you need it, some of the sites have easy water access.

    Post a photo of your mid cabin speakers

    Driled the holes today. What a mess. But I'm on the lake with great sound while driving.now I have to get at the big sub hole next. I had to get another amp as well. And learn the proper way to wire it all. I've got 13 channels on 3 amps and lots of bridging. I'm sure they make a nice volume...
