It's this darn owing yor own little company thing and this just wonderful economy!!! I think we have the bugs worked out of this new contract and, well al lot can happen over a year. So I'm putting this trip back on the schedule and we'll just see if we can make it work this time!
We missed you, Sled. Thanks for the boat compliment, Ed. I really like it too. It's different but works great for me.
Yep, that boat is one great looking ride! That color combo may have sold my better 1/2 on upgrading to the LSV.Quote:

getting some pointers from Mark - aka SaltyOysters - maker of LakeWakes wakesurf boards. We all thought his boards were made great and the kiddos loved riding the grom boards he brought. looking forward to trying out some of his other boards soon.

there's gold in the water! Sinclair has a lot of "gold flecks" of iron pirite floating in it. Zegm gave us a detailed explanation, but I was a few beers into the day already so I forgot what it was he said.

A special THANKS to all the families that were able to join ours again this year out at Lake Sinclair. We had a great time with you all and hope to see you back again next year along with some new friends! We're already talking about how to make it a bigger and better event, so mark your calendars for July 9, 2011.
Hey Sinclair Team those are some great pictures of a great time, thanks to all for your excellent photos!!!!
You were seeing the LS doing about 45mph at dusk in that one picture!
I also feel bad, our Nikon was sitting at my feet under the dash the whole weekend and we didn't take one picture! Well that just means we were having too much fun!
Again thanks to All!!!!
PS I have proof that I did ski! Right Kaneboats!!!!
Yes! Z checked the water temp and it was above 90 so he braved it with a shorty on. He did slip on the Radar and get in a slalom run though. I saw it with my own two eyes. Gave me a nice pull too. Thanks!

Great pics! That hammock is right in Wolfeman's back yard.

I'm not buying, but I would like to see how much beer Kane's family could pound. They have an unfair advantage of numbers.Quote:

Dont get me wrong, I enjoy a sociable few also, my point was its nice to hang with guys who are just not into pounding them down and getting really messed up and ruin a good day on the water. I may have to come try out that safe Island sometime :p
And good beer at that ;), and I should have a saturday off soon-may crash your lake and consume some of your beer :cool:Quote:

Well the skeeters aren't much better here right now, but we do have ways around that.
Daze you know you and the boys absolutely need to get to the island some day to check it out. Our lake is small, but fun, and this year the water level has been just great. Not so sure we can guarantee that in the future.
Last year my inlaws had a reunion up that way and if they do it again we just may swing by for a few days

Great stuff-- very nice pics!
Boy sure a lot of tubing PICS? How about some surfing or boarding, even skiing vids to prove you guys aren't just making this stuff up about great surfing :)
The kids just about ONLY wanted to tube. Why not wakeboard, ski, surf? I came up with an analogy that explains it. Would you rather have a bottle of good champagne and drink it by yourself -- or a bunch of cheap beer and drink it with your friends? Tubing is the cheap beer I guess. Fun with friends, how can you argue with that?
good thing we all have the same taste in cheap beer with the occasional glass of champagne
Gosh how do I say this? I will admit to pulling tubes while in Sinclair, yes I did!
And this disease was so bad that it affected my own kids. How else can I explain that new Obrien tube sitting in the boat now?
Yes tubing is a Scourge that can affect all boaters even inboards!
I mean it has gotten so bad at my house that Sunday while out on the lake the only thing pulled behind the boat was this tube. I guess the last straw was when MrsZ was spotted behind the boat on the thing! There were tears in my eyes!!!
Anyone know any good counslers in the Panama City area? We need help now!
I suppose you three can blame the kids, I mean it's not like they are online to defend themselves or anything :D
My two youngest just came into the room to ask to ski on saturday!
Not to rub it in or anything :)
Yeah, you just bring those little ones down to Sinclair next year! We will see, won't Drew, Stacy and Pat?????
Oh by the way, MrsZ and I left the tube in the boat down on the lift! Yeah you know why, just need a few rednecks around here to see it. Nope they won't take the skies as they have no use for them, but a nice big ole fat tube. Shoot that old 24 Merc on that dinged up flat bottom boat can pull that thing!
We are waiting and watching!
Now I'm not so sure this is the kind of influence I want my children exposed to :D
Well I can say it got to mine! Now that ole 25hp Merc on that bent up aluminum flat bottom boat doesn't look so bad. Think of the gas money I would save!!!!
You could park it beside the barge and we could hang like regular red necks :)
