The memory of most of my trips have turned into one giant trip with the exception of the few that stand out for specific reasons. Usually bad reasons at that.But what was that one time that you remember as being the best time on the water?
For me I've had a lot but the one time that sticks in my mind was late on a Sunday at Parker. I was stayin till Monday which was unusual for me and I didn't have to stress about leavin. We were rafted up and floating late in the afternoon. You know the time. The heat of the day has passed and your thinkin about a nap.
Four boats. 3 Old school jet boats and a run-about. Nobody had a stereo with more than a couple of Pioneer 6x9's so the tunes were off. Traffic was way down being Sunday eve so the raft wasn't a constant job to keep together.
Floatin past the Road Runner with a cover band playin "Rebel Yell" and the smell of Coconut Oil in the air. A body baggin rays on a deck and a couple more on a hatch. Loungeing in the back of a boat playin footsie with a girl that I'd have to think real hard to remember her name and milkin an ice cold beer.

Today was my best boating day. The boat ran strong and consistant, I also got the chance to meet some more hot boat members.

just about every get together we have. Seems like the next one is always a bit better than the last. I'm very much looking forward to the Shasta trip in 2 weeks and then the 4th Annual Tower Park deal in Aug. Really can't wait for TP4 but also looking forward to everything from now until then.
The end of a great weekend - TP3

My best day was two weeks ago at Elsinore. First day out in my first boat, and all went well, almost without a hitch. met some great folks from hot boat boards:D

I was just gonna say that my best times with my boat (s) have been on houseboating trips at Shasta. Relaxing and just plain fun... nothing quite like it.:D
