SD,
Last weekend was a ton of fun, we hung at the usual spot with the usual people. I took a midday cruise down to the party sandbar and hung out with kwicherbichin' for a few. We did a bit of wake-boarding on Ferguson at sunset, had a killer BBQ at the house. On Sunday went down to clear lake. How was Hawaii?

The islands are always fun, hard not to have a good time. Weather wasn't great cloudy and rainy during the day. Only had 2 days of sun out of 10. Thought about coming home early to join you guys on the water, but it didn't happen. Labor Day will be here soon enough.

Worked pretty good Ari! We had a great time and can't wait for the next. The pics are kinda blue though. It was fun meeting your crew, they were some funny people. Much thanks to you & Dev for the hospitality. wink
PTL, great seeing you again brutha. Kim and I swung by Sunday night to give you a ride to Ari's but you had bailed.
Screamin Pete nice meeting you and the wife. Nice boat and anchor. I gotta get me one of those.
San Diego, good to finally meet you. Where were you Sunday?
78Eliminator, that was a short visit? Didn't you say, "Let's make plans and tear that place up!
SD Mikey and Rubths (which means Rub This, who knew?) I have to party with you guys next trip. These guys are outta control. BTW, sorry I didn't swing by the pad. We were late for dinner at Lighting's place and when I saw you at the dock as we were rollin into the launch I had to pinch one off. Next time definately!
Slo Poke, drunk chics dig you bro! Great meeting you and the wife.
BBC502? or something like that (Bill). Nice restoration job, that Ultra looks new j/k :D
Hallet19, hey focker...where were you?
Yeah, the executive decision is that we are going for labor day weekend. Look us up, macking ladies and OWNING the sandbar PTL had to hold down the fort without a wing man. :(

Kwicherbichen, It was great meeting you guys. Sunday, I came around the sandbar and Lightning started heading up river and we followed him. I thought he may convinced you to go to Picacho. I drove by the place you were staying Mon. morning to see if you were outside, but probably too early. Our next trip is the 21st. A big THANKS for the opportunity to grab a ride home with you guys.
Good fun and glad to have gotten a chance to meet some on this board. But I know there are more of you who don't post, step up, it is a good way to keep in touch when not on the water.

The weekend was awesome. PTL was a complete bro in every sense. He took us in, gave us alcohol, a place to sleep and let me borrow his spare tire (don't ask. two blowouts in one trip). I was a bit of a weenie because I was so tired from the work week and wrenching on the boat every night before I got there so my "party stamina" was at an all time low. Sorry about that PTL.
Anyway, it was nice to meet some new faces at the sandbar and I look forward to the next trip. I am glad I left early Sunday because I spent a good portion of it looking for a place to get new tires for the trailer. I had a blowout on the way there and going home I had another one that blew the fender right off my trailer. I shred.

Justin,
Purely out of curiosity... I know you have a comparitively light boat, and a dual axle trailer. What kind of tires did you have on the trailer? I know your fenders were hating it, but were they trailer tires, or low-profile radials?
I ask because I kept grenading newer car radials on my picklefork, and once I switched to trailer radials I have not had any dramas.

I ask because I kept grenading newer car radials on my picklefork, and once I switched to trailer radials I have not had any dramas.You nailed it Wes. They are low pro radials.....
I replaced them all with used ones from some drunk guy in El Centro and figured they might last me the rest of the season. Am I wrong?

Justin,
Purely out of curiosity... I know you have a comparitively light boat, and a dual axle trailer. What kind of tires did you have on the trailer? I know your fenders were hating it, but were they trailer tires, or low-profile radials?
I ask because I kept grenading newer car radials on my picklefork, and once I switched to trailer radials I have not had any dramas.Wes do you or anyone know the difference between regular style car tires and trailer tires. You'd think a low pro radial would be pretty stout?

Really nice weekend and the cops were on the down low which is surprising! Kwicherbitchen great to finally meet you and put some faces to these funky names we all have. I cant remember if you took a picture of my boat or if it was someone else? I was preaty hammered, well whomever took the pic please post it to help a guy sell his rig. Kwicherbitchen whens the next trip?

Wow, what a weekend. Got there Saturday evening about 6:30, got unloaded and made the rounds in the cart. We all decided to take the carts for a little cruise out to the power plant and all the sudden it was like the Dukes Of Hazard, cops everywhere. Old Rosco P. in the sheriff pickup is not afraid to beat that thing, it was clasic. It took us 2 hours to sneak out of there between the roadblocks and all the other jackasses like me rollin in stealth mode (lights off and only one beer in hand) but we made it. Sunday morning I cruised over to fishers to get ice at at the gas dock and I saw Kwitcherbitchins boat at the launch ramp but my little cart took bullet the night before and seemed to be leaking fuel on to the exaust so I had to haul ass back to the fort to patch her up before I could talk to you. I made a lap around the big sandbar but didnt see his boat so we headed up to Picacho for the rest of the day. Had to run back down to Fishers because my buddy forgot the radar gun, back up to Picacho for some runs. My buddy Wes ripped off 3 passes with the last being the best, 115mph. Not bad for the little Placecraft. We then proceeded to float, and float, and float from Picacho. We all decided that once we hit the toolies we would fire em up and head in....well...you know when your boat breaks you cant keep them out of the toolies right? all of our boat ran and we didnt hit anything,never had to fire them up at all and made it all the way to Martinez at 11:30, what a blast. Went out on the carts again that night, hung out at the bar for a while and then passed out. Monday we went for the usuall last day Clear Lake run and one thing led to another and we were back up to the big sandbar until 6:00. Came in, cleaned up, hooked up and was back to Alpine by 10:00. It was a killer, not long enough but oh well. Sorry I didnt meet up with you guys but I'll try it some other time. Sorry for the long post :D When is the next run?

Kwicherbichen:
Wes do you or anyone know the difference between regular style car tires and trailer tires. You'd think a low pro radial would be pretty stout?It isn't. They are designed with a lot of sidewall flex, and no flex at all on the tread, which gives you a nice, low profile firm footprint. With no shocks or suspension to speak of on a boat trailer, only sprung weight, the tires are bounced into oblivion, and the sidewalls usually give out. In addition, when used in a tandem trailer application, the tow vehicle tends to drag the fronts or rears around, depending on traction when turning or cornering in parking lots. This is also bad for the non-trailer rated sidewalls.
I'm not sure about this last part... but my theory is that with the non-dampened suspension bouncing on the car radials, the sidewalls heat up a lot more from squirm and friction and cause the failures. I have had new-tread car radials fail on me with only my picklefork for weight.
I know there is a big difference between the two types structurally as well, but don't know exactly what.
I do know this for a fact though. A new tire, bought and installed as a car tire that fails will not be warrantied if found to be on a trailer, and most reputable tire companies will not sell you one for use on a trailer.
Squirts up!

Not compression. Leakdown. Both valves closed, piston at bottom of compression stroke, you pressurize the cylinder and see if it holds the pressure or if it leaks down. That will give you an idea of what kind of blow by you have going on and give you an idea where the crankcase pressure is coming from.

JP, That leakdown test....the piston should be @ the top of the stroke (exh valve is already open at bdc).
78, That static compression is a little on the high side. I think you either have a really small cam (doubtful) or some high compression pistons in there. Might want to look for a # on the crown to see what they are. Race gas to fuel that thing! :D Mike

J, The person you bought it from did not have a build sheet on the engine?
Check the lift on the cam via the rocker arm to get an idea of how big it is. Do you have access to the grind maker and # of the cam.
Check the pistons for a # (TRW 2307?).
Cam size,
Less duration = more comb pressure @ low RPM.
More duration = less comp pressure @ low RPM
205#s might be a little much for a pump fueled engine.
Check it out, Mike

When you put it back together, "degree" it to make sure it's in a good position. That can also have an effect on the compression pressure if it installed too early (adv). :)
You'll feel better knowing where it's at then wondering why it broke. :D

If you are out there early enough, you can catch Lightning out there. He is just driving out Thursday night for a morning session on Friday, doing some trailer maintenance and coming back Friday night.

Say Hi to him for me!24 hours at the river, I'm back already. Got in last night at 11, wrenched in the new AC unit in about 30 minutes. Woke up this morning and was on the water by 8 a.m. What an awesome day, nice and glassy water from about 8 a.m. 'til 3:30. The party sandbar had 4 boats total including mine. We wakeboarded and got the best water ever. Got in around 5:30 at night, had a burger at the bar, hung out for a few hours, and drove back. Horrible way to spend a Friday :D

Unfortunately I am not going to be able to make it on the 28th. My buddy is getting married that weekend.
I just went this past weekend, it was sweet. The weather was perfect 100 at day, 75 at nigh. It was not crowded at all. It was definately good times.
There was a ton of hydrilla at the launch ramp and dead plants everywhere in the water though. The water is starting to cool off a bit and it looks like the water level dropped down a lot since my previous trip out. I saw a few Maxum's and Bayliners that had hit bottom, definately not happy people. :D My next trip is planned for October 19th.

What a great weekend. Got on the water around 10:30 on Friday and the water was perfect. Headed up to Monkey Island and then took a cruise down to Hidden Shores and then into ClearLake. Hit the bar at Martinez Fri. night for a little shuffle board and ALOT of silvers, closed it down and went back to the house for more silvers by way of the carts.On the way there me and my buddy Wes thought it would be funny if I brake checked his dad so I did and yep, his cart got wadded up in a bad way, guess my utility bed aint so bad after all :D . Up to Picacho on Sat. morning w/ my boat, the Ultra, the Placecraft and the CP for a while and the made our way down to the big sandbar and met up w/ some other buddys ( even Mitch the lurker w/ Lickety Split) for rest of the day. The wind came up and the water went to crap so we headed in for a little ramp action and more silvers. Right before sundown the wind died so me and the CP went out on the water for about 20 minutes and it was killer, perfect water and nobody around. Hit Martinez for some grub and then back to the house to get some stank off and then right back to the bar. I started w/ Vodka Collins and didnt stop, two fistin those things is a BAD idea, I went throug about 12 of those things plus beer and next thing I know I have someting like 8 or nine people on my cart headind to do what? Yep, more drinking. Well by 2:30 I had my buddy pour me out of my cart so he could head back to the party and I hit the pillow, HARD. Got up Sunday feeling like a 190 pound bag of shit and loaded everthing up, cleaned up the house, locked up, ate breakfast and hit the water for a while. Met up w/ Rubths and his wife and SD Mikey and his buddy plus a few others. What a nice bunch of people, cant wait to do it again. Both these guys have really nice boats and great attitudes, cant wait to do it agian. Sorry I took off early but I felt like shit run over twice and needed aspirin and a bloody mary. I might just have to go out and buy another CR500 just so I can have a reason to meet up w/ you guys at the dez. That sums up my weekend, anyone have an extra liver I can borrow?

We had a great time out there this weekend. The water is definitely getting colder though.
Briefly met Rubths and his wife a couple of times on Saturday but we were always headed in opposite directions, and just never made it over to knock on his river house door. Next time for sure. I kept an eye out for some of the other boats pictured in this thread but didn't recognize anyone. We hung out at the sandbar for awhile on Saturday and made a run up to Picacho later.
On sunday we took a SLOW cruise (my sister was with us on Sunday, that means "VERY" slow, "extremely" slow, "but we're gettin' passed by seadoo boats" slow) up above Picacho and messed around taking some kneeboard mpegs with the mavica. Nothing came out too great though, I forgot to delete the pics off of some floppies I was reusing and my friend didn't realize some of the mpegs were coming out 1 sec long. Good for a laugh though. :D
