I will be there.
Staying at the Gardenhouse Bed&Breakfast. Awesome place, near the dam.
Planning on rafting up on the anchor line Sat. the 24th.
I hear the Sorcerer Skater is trying for 200mph and supposedly has already run that fast at other locations!!
I will be there to witness the carnage (hope all end up alive and well!) first hand.
Hope to see ya there!
BTW: will save you a minnow at Big Dick Friday night if you are still coming!!

I live a the lake, alwayes go to the shootout, can't run because my boat is only 20 feet. If anyone is in the area of the big Niangua arm 2- mile mark, Beauty Cove, boat name is Thunderbutt stop in and have a beer. I thought I was the only one on the ***boat net from Mo. superV:

Big DaDDy, what a boat. If he can get into thoses numbers he might be king of the lake. Didn't 167 do it last year, but Scott. Bob Morgan (Bigthunder) doesn't like all of this competition. I love thoses Surface drives, are they Arneson drives?

OK,
now if, and I mean a BIG if, I were to decide to jump in my truck and tow my boat to LOTO for this deal where the hell would I head to when I got there?
I would be driving west on 70 so I guess 54 South to??
I would want to be where I can launch my boat,and not go too far to where the fun is. I will probably have to sleep in the truck cos this is me toying with a last minute whim here. Bear in mind that I have a little old 18' Sanger Hydro jet with not much freeboard and it does not get too far from a gas dock. Is there a suitable location for me to see the action without venturing into the rough stuff? I know nothing of the area so would have to rely on your advice so that I don't spend a lot of wasted time looking for the "place to be." I also don't want to get swamped.
Apart from the late hour, is this realistic for my type of boat?

Burbanite,You would take 54 south into Osagebeach, the 21 mile marker is were the race is held infront of Shooters 21 which is on lake road 54/56 I think, look on the map. That lake road is next to the Hospital entrance. I'm not sure I would put the Sanger Hydro in, even in the no wake zone there are waves that would go over the transom. Be carfull. burbanite:

Sea Esta here....New to this board. Been lookin for a place to chat with others from LOTO. Were at the lake just about every weekend. Were at the 10MM on the Niangua, across from Bridal Cave. We have a Hurricane GS 232 with a Yamaha 200 HPDI. Not what you would call a Hot Boat but will have to do for the time being. Been looking at a PlayCraft Tritoon Extreme with a pair of 225 Yamaha's straped to the back. Hope to meet others from the board as the weeks go by. Sea Esta. wink
