Jet boating on beautiful Lake Martin

[haknslash]

Us local Alabama forum members got together and met up at Lake Martin in Eclectic, AL. It was my first time to this lake and it did not disappoint. I love how these boats bring people together and share some good times! I hate I couldn't stay with the rest of the gang for the entire weekend but it was a blast Friday. Thanks again @Bill D @blacksapphirez and @DBamaC for the hospitality. Bill even tossed in some extra Fender Tenders he had and Jin gave me a spare rubber windshield bumper he had for my 192. Anyways here's some footage I put together of my time out on the water with these great guys and their wives! Hope you enjoy.

Yea it was a bittersweet ending. Unfortunately for the rest of the gang that stayed, I think I took the sunshine with me ....but at least they didn't let the overcast or rain dampen their fun. I'm sure they'll chime in with some pics of vids when they get back home. Hopefully they got some water sports action in. We were too busy chilling and floating to bother with it lol but I want to surf there as the water is super clear! Had a blast there and will definitely be back on that lake. Water was about 2' down this time of year but still great for boating. I wished my SVHO intercooler was installed damn heat soak gets me every time I can't keep up with them on the top end . I got them to try doing the high speed 180 spin

Great video. I miss the Alabama lakes I grew up going to. Spent many days on Smith Lake with the family. What GoPro do you have? I am looking to get one soon.

I have the GoPro Hero 4 Silver edition. I haven't been to Smith lake in about 15 years. Super deep there and nice clear water too!
