Do you ever get hassled?
How safe is it to navigate at night?

Yeah, I really like Parker. I have a friend coming in to town tomorrow, so I specifically want to go to to Havasu and Parker to show him the sights...that's why I've got Parker planned for Saturday afternoon/evening and Sunday.
Hey RD, when are the wet t-shirt and bikini contests and at which bar? Plan on my stopping by the house to say hey!

Should be a great time this weekend. It seems as though there will be a lot of people out there. I will be looking for everyone at sand bar & RR, Badenochs, & the rest. Is anyone going to have a radio on? Keep an eye for my Cole 22.4 Skier( White, Red, Black, Blue, Etc. Etc.)& give to the cause.

Thor,
Only 3 things you need to stay safe on the Parker Strip at night.
1) Correct lights
2) Light throttle
3) Designated (sober) driver
Have those things and it'll go smooth. Forget one, and you'll be guaranteed to get stopped.

Boatcop,
Correct lighting. Green/Red up fron and the running light out back? Is there a height regulation for the one on the back?
Thanks

Boatcop

White light must be high enough to be seen for 360 degrees, and not be blocked by passengers, bimini top, etc.

That's true, but you'll have to register it, and display the license plate (with light if used at night) It'll also have to have a "suitable muffler" (No open off road pipes or open "stinger"), inside and outside rear view mirrors, horn, etc.
If it's the first time being registered, you'll need the bill of sale, previous title, and have the MVD inspect the VIN to make sure it matches the paperwork. If it doesn't have a VIN, you'll need a Statement/Certificate of Origin, and the MVD will issue a VIN tag to it.

Now I remember...... You know the 70's were tough on people my age. :D I think the last time we talked you were having carb issues. You looked pretty frustrated. Yes, Jim ended up putting the pieces of my boat back together after the HTM accident. Steve (HTM) had upgraded my outdrive to an XR and was in the process of putting on the procharger. When I took the boat to Jim it was a mess. I can't say enough good things about him, Knowledgable,honest, alot of integrity, stands behind his work,finishes the job at the original quote. etc.etc. I saw him a couple of weeks ago at the casino.He is definetly the man I will always have working on my boat from here on out.
Are you going out this weekend? We will be rolling in Friday around 7:00. I'll look you up let's have a few!!!

Yeah we were down there, but things were "low key." This last weekend we had a bunch of kids with us so the stereo was turned down, and we were just being mellow. It was actually a cool change of pace.
RDAhhh, same here although Grandma just moved to Havasu so the wife and I are dropping off the kids next weekend so we can remember what it feels like to really hurt on Monday :D
