The channel today

[ULTRA28]

Not too hard to find a spot today. I don't think I've ever seen it this dead. To think, this is noon on a Sunday. Yeah, it was pretty windy (and choppy) out on the lake. Had a nice time hanging out and running in to a few Hot Boat people. Thanks Todd and Dana for hanging today. Also nice seeing the Sbarks and Force26 and his boys.

how was reggae?

[shippingguy]

Just got home. It was definitely easy for JW and I to find those spots. Would have been a perfect day if the wind would have calmed. We did get a chance to see what these boats can do and they performed VERY WELL! Todd and Dana good hanging with you guys again. Force 26 nice to meet you. JW and Leah a joy as usual.

[BajaMike]

It was good....raggae music and the Bears game on the patio. Still can't find Virginia....

If you dont mind me asking. How well did they run in the chop?

That is standard operating procedure in Canyon Lake. Inflatables are not allowed on the main lake, but they are allowed to be towed in the back bay at 5 MPH, which is great for the little ones and just plain relaxing. We even just drag with a ski rope.
Since the channel was vacant...what was the problem?

[lawbreaker2]

Yup, The weather looks like it suck there, would you trade with me for awhile :cry: Now matter how bad your weather gets, ours is not any better.
cool pic's bye the way.

Try boating in that. :yuk:

[Garrddogg]

JW and Leah good to see you again, Shippingguy good to meet you! I sure was a beautiful day (exceptforthewind) It was a trip seeing them on that tube though COLD! wouldnt want to be in that water!

[Havasu Hangin']

Since the channel was vacant...what was the problem?
I assume the entire channel and Thomson Bay is a "no ski" zone? I've seen the LEO's pull folks over for towing inflatables.
It's tough enough to get through there with just a boat...I can you imagine how fun it would be if everyone was towing an inflatable... :supp:

[sigepmock]

Sorry we wussed out gang and didn't join you guys in the channel. We woke up with the wind howling and Carrie talked me into packin up the moho and heading home.
Thanks again for everything, we had a great time hanging out with all of you. Carrie and I haven't let loose since the baby was born.....glad we got that out of our system...... :crossx: I want be doing that again.

On the way to get a pic of the Bridge for my daughters school project, I also came across these guys playing their loud vulgar (sp?) music, drinking, nudity, taking up all the beach,and overall disturbing the peace! :rollside: Great looking boats John.

[MRSDRMCAT]

Nice boats John!!! The channel looks so peaceful!!

[shippingguy]

If you dont mind me asking. How well did they run in the chop?
They ran great. We took both out for a run. Mine is the 27 (White) the other is the new 26 Deckboat. JW took some customers for a test drive and they were impressed. JW was cruising through the chop in the deck. I made a couple runs as well with JW side by side. These runs were made down to Copper Canyon and back.

[jrgaudettes]

They ran great. We took both out for a run. Mine is the 27 (White) the other is the new 26 Deckboat. JW took some customers for a test drive and the were impressed. JW was cruising in it around 75-80 mph in the deck. I made a couple runs and hit 103. These runs were made down to Copper Canyon and back.
Thanks for the info. We just bought the 26 Deck of the show room floor a few weeks back. Should be picking it up this week.

Thanks. After three season with our 21ft Essex we needed to step. Sold the Essex year+ ago due to Sons club soccer and daughters Horse riding. Figured out we were missing all the fun and had to get back into boating. I was on this site and looked at the pics of John's 26 deck went to Ultra'a web site, looked in the inventory saw the boat and the rest was a formatlity.

Where do you live in Rancho? Im off Daycreek just south of the 210.

I like all boats, dosent matter to me as long as im on the water, I'm having a great time.

[dicudmore]

good to see John and Leah on the water, and Mike and Holly again :cool:
we got a little delayed sunday and never made it to the channel--3 trailers in the windsor lot when we pulled my boat out the first time--Ron's 27' Ultra--John's 26, and Mike's 27' :D They were well represented---
The second time we launched yesterday had the entire windsor parking lot to myself, and the entire lake--kinda wierd being the only boat on the water :220v:

[shippingguy]

Good seeing you out there. Sorry we did not get a chance to hang. Next time on the water will possibly be Thanksgiving weekend and for sure the Light PArade weekend.

[drejustice]

First I want to thank John and his wife for taking time out of their weekend to meeting us on Sunday. We flew out from the East Coast this past weekend to take a test ride in a 26 Shadow. All I can say is wow!!!! Conditions were NOT ideal in his view and he apologized but from my perspective, what better way to see what the boat could do then run it with crappy conditions.
Wind was blowing with gusts up to 30 according to the radio. The water was basicallly a white cap machine with 2-4 foot waves when we were out for our ride.
Our conclusion: We are sold! :cool: Let's just say, I think i'll be owning a tunnel by next May!!!! fyi...I now have a taylor jet boat for sale;)
But don't take our word for it as I did manage to shoot a little video on 1 of our runs. Now the quality isn't great as I was using the Video feature on my little digital still camera and I couldn't hold it that still, but you still get the idea that the ride in these conditions is Impressive.
To see Video :Click here (http://www.teamjustice.net/pics/ultratestride.wmv)
The only other boat we saw out was John's friend in a 27 Shadow.(That looked to handled the rough conditions even better). These conditions are rare back East where we would use the boat so for us it was a good test to show how the boat would do if we were ever faced with bad conditions and still wanted to be able to boat.

[Ultracrazy]

Thanks for the info. We just bought the 26 Deck of the show room floor a few weeks back. Should be picking it up this week.
Congratulations on the new Ultra. You guys are going to love this boat. Look forward to seeing you out there soon. My 26 is at Ultra for a couple of updates, including the new power windflaps and painted rubrail. I had mine out twice between June and July. Since then I have clocked a total of 65 flawless hours on my 26. Ultra did a great job with the 26.
Again, hope to see you on the water

Thanks, I had ran across pics of your boat along with John's, from there went on line to Ultra's web sire, the boat cought my attention and the rest was a done deal. We do most of our boating in Havasu so we are bound to run into one another. I do feel bad our Gel scheem is the same (differnet colors) but I could not pass on the deal. :rollside: But you have the 1st and that is cool. I also plan to add the wind deflecters when my first service is due. Painted rub rail's, sounds like something to take a look at.

[jrgaudettes]

BTW, its killing me to watch these videos. (but they are fun to watch) Make's me want to have my son quit club soccer and my daughter give up horse back riding so I can take it out this weekend. Wont be able to take it out untill Dec 10th or so. :cry: :cry:

Leo,
I added a set of CMI headers to mine and they made a very noticable differece in the boats overall performance and top speed.
Again, hope to see you on the water. It will be cool to see our two boats running side by side. Also, you got a great deal on your 26.

Im looking forward to it. Yeah cant beat the deal I got. I had read on those Cmi you installed. How hard were they to put on, some say a pain in the a**. That will be my next winter project. So far this winter I would like to add Sub's and Amps. Already bought billet optima bat. brakets and battieres. And the wind deflecters you are adding. Our the one's your having installed hydrolic or electric? (not sure if thats an option or not) And of course Sat radio and I pod connect.

I wish Cole, its still in Corona showroom waitng for some add-on's to be completed. Friday is the target day for pick up. Not in to big of rush but it would be nice to see sitting on the side yard so I can drewl. After Dec 10th it will be in Havi spending the winter there.
Now I have the plat form I would like to thank Barry and everyone at Ultra I have talked to. You guys have made this painless.

hmmm. :idea:
I swear I saw it on a white trailer with LED's being towed by a Grey F-250/350 it was a deck because it had billet steps in the rear.(No logos yet)
Maybe they were taking it to get something done?

The CMI's were a huge pain to install. Much more of a pain than I expected. I believe that the new Dana flaps are electric, but not positive about that. I had Ultra do my subs and amp and will probabally do Optima's sometime in the near future. Optima's are so much better

They have been good so far. No complaints. I can say this web site is what sold me on the boat. I would have had no Idea Ultra even made a deck. I have in the past and present have been spending my internet time on Lasvegas***boats.
Due to many members on ***boat who have Ultra's I plan on spending time here also. Thanks everyone, you all have been more than helpfull.

Nice on the subs and amp. I was thinking 10's and up grade the the six speakers already in there. Plus amps. I was thinking electric also on the wind deflectors. Seems you have one install under your belt I might be asking alot of questions when I'm ready for mine. :D :rolleyes:
