Wake surfed today and the rescue boat, ambulance, and fire truck showed up to save the "capsized boat" again. I am a drain on public funds. 2nd time this year.
I have the tower off the boat so I can garage it rather than winterized it and uses the boat all year (doesn't fit under my 7'door). I guess I look like a distressed fishing boat.
There is a busy highway that runs by the river. Can't help but wonder if a passer by saw us listed over and got scared. There is a waterfall just down stream from our normal surf spot.
We could not look too distressed with my 2 and 5 year old dancing around doing the Harlem Shake.
The same thing happened when Berg and I were out in January.
For the record around here we call it the upper and lower Willamette river. A lot of us run the upper. You will most likely die if you hit the Oregon City falls dead in the water.

....and it's no wonder passers by think Boone is taking on water and about to die, no way would anyone be crazy enough to surf this time of year. Of coarse in three months or so he won't get a second look.
It was near 60 today and I saw the sun.
That is like summer time in OR. :)
It really was a nice day on the water.

Proof you are crazy. Out of curiosity what's the water temp right now?
Water temp was 49.
I saw sun for like 1 hour yesterday LOL. It must have stayed more south for you man.
We got a spit of rain around 7pm.
Supposed to rain all day today.
Ice is moving out
Went to the cottage to check on done things, lift looks lonely

Going away party for my boy Sergio. He's got a new gig in Austin TX. He has some serious camera gear and takes great pictures. He also brings plenty of libations if any of you Texans want to show him your rivers.
Yesterday!! Temps in the high 70's but very windy.

Got out yesterday for Maiden voyage.. High 70s.. but some wind.. Boat ran great.. I put a new Acme 1235 on before going out! LOVE IT.
A few first trip issues.. wakeplate and ballast didnt work.. UGH.. got home and realized i bumped the breaker in engine compartment when doing some winterizing.. all good now!
Forgot my wetsuit (confused as to where it was actually.. was wrong!) water was 61-62.. a little chilly for shorts and a rashguard.. but enjoyed getting back on board.. choppy so after a couple of passes along the dam, i rode about 3 miles toward the other end just for "endurance".. ouch i hurt today...
not many pics.. first is just floating.. second is view from my lot.. construction should start in May on boathouse. gotta get a seawall put in and get pilings ordered (5 weeks to order pilings.. ugh).. and then depend on the ONE guy who sets pilings..

Awesome Brad. Our maiden voyage of 2013 is scheduled for Friday! This weekend I'm stuck at my sisters baby shower and then next weekend the temp drops like 15 degrees. Gotta do what you gotta do tho!

Oh man, those pics are killing me. We came close to dropping the boat but opted for golf instead!
Took the new (to me) rig out for her maiden voyage yesterday on Lake Austin and she didn't disappoint! Amazing how many Mobius' of different years were on the water. Had fun even with the crappy stock stereo- system being installed this week...

Where's that pick with the blue Supra? Across from the country club maybe? I can't place where it would be and I thought I knew Lake Austin pretty well.
How was the hydrilla?
TX Jam?
This sounds relevant to my interests... Please explain.
Yeah that pic with the Supra was across from the golf course in the cove by 360 bridge.
No probs with the hydrilla yesterday...
TX Jam is on August 9-11 at Bethy Creek Resort in Riverside, TX. This is a Moomba/Supra reunion held for the past 3 years and hoping to keep going strong.
There is a thread on it in the Events section as well as a facebook page www.facebook.com/moombasuprajam
Clear your schedule and come out for a great weekend on the Trinity river - one of the best places to ride in Texas - mark my words.
Last year we had approx. 20 boats including a few people flying in from out of state and others making the tow from Louisiana.
Did you get this work done at American Audio in Cumming GA. I went in there today and they told me about a guy that brought his moomba in and they installed a ton of audio equipment in it. They said it was super loud. Actually uncomfortably loud from what they said.
Ha, no. I installed it all myself. Everything went fine until it was time to turn it all on. Flipped the switch and NOTHING. The radio is completely dead. The batteries are fully charged and I checked all the fuses and they are ok. Checked all the wires and everything is solid. Worked fine in October and nothing has changed. Except I swapped out an amp. I'm not sure what is going in but after 2 weekends straight of mods and one to go I'm tired of messing with it so I called AVC marine over by ATL Marine and I'm taking it to them tomorrow morning so they can figure it out.
On a positive note the drilling a hole in the transom below the waterline and installing a light went flawlessly...heh go figure...

A little video from our trip to Hydrous Sunday when it was 39 degrees and rainy at home.

Cool video. Haven't been to Hydrous yet, spent a lot of time at TSR though.
Love the cable, it's great for experimenting with new tricks.
