You musta had the whole lake to yourself today,i had a hall pass to go today and just couldnt justify it with the rain and ugly skies
That boat kinda resembles a 21' Galaxy my cousin had at one time with a 800 series OMC outdrive and small chev V8 350:confused:
looks like the top half completly delaminated from the bottom before it went down??
I was out there last tuesday late in the day at Browns and made a hard pass without anyone saying anything about the 5mph limit
I am guessing you didnt take your boat today or you wouldnt of idled all the way up to launch at RS from GB

Took the Jeep the lake. Only saw one Fishing boat. Did watch these guys for a while which eventually ended up as two 4x4's burried with a crowd watching.

looks kind of like the boat that caught fire in that area last year.

looks like someone got the lower unit off the drive. Kind of wonder if they went back and sunk this boat. Notice that the CF #'s are gone...the boat didn't burn down to the CF numbers.

It does not show in the pic, but the whole lower unit is still there prop and all. Obviously someone wanted the swim platform. Awesome seeing pics of it actually on fire. I sure would have figured it had been down longer considering the corrision on the engine. Guess the fire burned any paint that would have protected it becasue the lower unit still looked preety good.

kinda curious about something. can a person just take what they want offa a sunk boat and it be legal or is there laws against it? i've seen so many pics of sunk boats on here and have always wondered if they're abandoned, can they be scavenged for parts?:confused: :idea:

Is that typical of the water level fluctuations in that lake or is down that much because of you know what???:idea: NSF

I believe any salvage operations need to go through the land owners. :idea:
My guess they would love to have it removed. Anyone up to removing it from the lake. I'm just a bit to far from this lake, other wise I'm bring the generator/Saws all, and a portable engine hoist and a trailer and haul it off.
then move over to laters boat. my guess laters boat would be in better shape

we had plenty of rain and snow water run off this year. :mad: all the nor cal lakes were full to the top. but the water management fokers decided to drain the crap out of them and send it all down the river to L.A. for some big $$$$ and then they will turn around and tell you there,s a drought and charge us more for our water. now do you get the big picture. :mad: think about it. we had plenty of water. the rivers are higher now than back in may.

Liquid courage has nothing to do with John's Period and his lack of experience. Besides, from what I hear, he could use a drive right about now... :idea:
WTF is a "looser?" I mean other than the opposite of tighter. And I don't see where I called John's Period anything. Jackass. ;)
How is that lawsuit coming John's Period? Been awfully quiet about it lately... :notam:

I think I've read this post somewhere before:confused: I would ask why you care so much but its none of your or my business. Get a new soap box subject. Plus John made a well publicized ( on H.B.)visit to Havasu and you never showed up to shoot your mouth off face to face:idea: Why not? Does it take beer and a computer for you to man up..
I will say you must be one hell of a drinker. Drunk and talking trash at 1:30am and up for work by 8:00am. How many days a week do you practice? Your mom must be so proud.:jawdrop:
Run along now...back to the sandbar or the bar.:devil:

Well, John's Period and his little bitch Greggie, or is it Mr. Lennon and his little bitch John's Period certainly made an effort to make it known on a public board, which certainly makes it everyone's business now it seems. I was just asking a legitimate question.
Plus John made a well publicized ( on H.B.)visit to Havasu and you never showed up to shoot your mouth off face to face:idea: Why not? Does it take beer and a computer for you to man up..
Nope. No beer and no computer required. I can mouth off any time and any place. Why would I want to waste my time and energy to go to Havasu to mouth off to someone who will likely file a lawsuit. Besides, people who actually show up somewhere to fight over something that was posted on the internet just show what jackasses they really are. :notam:

For as much as you seem to think I was drinking, my posts were more coherent and better gramatically than yours. Doesn't say much for you now does it??? As far as my mom, no, she's really not proud of me. Thinks I'm wasting my life because I didn't go to law school.
John's Period is a big boy, I'm sure if my post was that big of a deal he could respond. Are you one of his little bitches, like Greggie, now too??? Take your easter egg looking boat and run along. It will be your season again soon. :notam:

Maybe Jordy should start his own website about John Period and the lawsuit. That way when John Period posts something on this website, we can read it without having to wade through the whole "you're a lowlife because your suing my beloved Ultra" diatribe. Because quite frankly, it's getting a little old.

I made one comment and all his little nutswingers took it from there. I'm not affiliated with Ultra, don't own one, haven't owned one, have no plans of owning one, so I'm not sure where "my beloved Ultra" comes in. Nobody would even know about the lawsuit if it wasn't for John's Period and his little lapdog Greggie posting up little remarks here and there about it. They made it public and then cried foul when called to the rug about it. I could really care less either way as it doesn't affect me. :notam:

No, I actually don't. Being a tough guy or not doesn't actually prove anything on the internet. I'd expect THE KING of the dipshits to know that. :jawdrop:
