82 deg F into the evening, nice conditions. We spent most the day on the water 'till closing.
Went out with Chester Cheetah.
Grey Goose & a few others couldnt make it.
First shake down cruise of the season,, and what a teriffic day for it.
Backed the truck out of the garage,, a flat with a huge screw in the tire,, so down to get that fixed.
Then on the water a small cooling system hose came loose and the bilge filled fast,, we re-connected the hose, with scalding engine water spraying, and were good to go. Bildge pump got a deluxe workout.
My daughter fixed lunch for everyone, Chester Cheetah Supplied the beverages and launch fee(s).
A few other boats we hooked up with:

Got off the water at 4:15, headed to Chuys and hooked up with a few we met on the water for a warm evening on Chuys patio with dinner and a few pitchers of 5 star Margaritas. We're flirtin' with summer.

It's 100% full. Just a few ft leeway for the back and forth water flow with Pyramid.

Yep the red is dragoncraft.
No word yet on any noise enforcement unless Chester Cheetah got word from anyone.
The other boat in question,, A Spectra.

I thought that was Marcel. Had to go back and re-read your first post. I thought he bought himself a new ride? All white...forget what it was. Looks good out there...wish it was warm here...only forecast 68 today. If you see Marcel tell him I said Hi.

Well it looks like it was a nice day on the lake.
You couldn’t have asked for better weather.
Like you said, “we are flirting with summer”
I can’t wait one more week until I get to go to the lake. :)
