    The knee is doing great. Recovery was easy, but I didn't lot of working out prior. Rehab started day after surgery. Was out of the hospital that afternoon!!! Walking trails with in a month and rode a MTB race in April! Now I've spent the summer behind the boat riding the foilmore than all the...

    Lake Mead

    True. But their AG need to fund the project. Desal pipeline to Powell? I'm not sure where the majority of the mead water goes...but I'd guess a lot goes to vegas which has filled that entire valley.

    Lake Mead

    Read a good article about a Mississippi pipeline. Easier engineering than the Alaska pipeline. No leak problems, it's water. Would fill Powell in less than a year. Mead in year 2. Any giving time of the year there is a flood issue on the Mississippi river. Seems like a no brainer...

Went back and looked around nothing. .hoping some one on Lanier is getting some use out of it. But it gave me a...

    Hydrophase makes you lazy!! But in a good way

    it's been the best thing for the boat. It make a shitty driver good enough to tow anyone at the right speed. My time behind the boat has gone thru the roof because of the hydro phase. I can recommend it enough, especially if you get into foiling or surfing..it's way harder to hold steady slow...

    Ar240 floor board gas lid soft.

    The cover/floor over the gas tank is "soft". Seems this is where the kids jump into the boat, hang from the tower and drop down, etc...repeated abuse has broken down the fiberglass. Any else? I'm guessing a new layer of fiberglass on the underside will fix it with a possible reinforcement spar...

    Hydrophase makes you lazy!! But in a good way

    I had to send my ride steady back for an error code I was getting. Going back to manual throttles absolutely sucks. I had forgotten how much work it takes to hold a speed and sync the engines. The only good thing about it was the amazing customer service from hydrophase!!! Fast email response...
