Oh, got it. There are a few around Twin Bridges, but those are kinda "off the beaten path" for those coming from out of town. I'll mark it regardless.

For those that haven't been to Lake SInclair before, below is a map with some of the key places such as Marinas with gas & ramps, GA Power daily access ramps (I think these require a nominal daily fee), WalMart SuperCenter, a few restaurants, Lake Sinclair Villages and my place.
We will plan to stay in the Isalnd Creek area which is the arm that the Lake Sinclair Villages and my place are on as well as the main body of water to the South, by the dam.
Below is a pic & link (hope it works) to the google map I made that should let you zoom in/out, get directions, etc.

awesome! thanks Drew!!!
My daughter has vacation/lake fever full force--she stayed home from camp today and is packing her stuff :D.
4 more days and I will be at Moomba Jam. Can't wait. More water time. Had to take a break today though. 3 days and I get tired. Makes me mad. Went ahead and worked today. It was a holiday for the plant so made a little change today. Gas money
So, uh, where are the pics from this Jam?! The server has been back online for 2 days I figured the pics would be everywhere by now!
Yep, we need pics!

The Jam last weekend was a blast as we were able to meet some new friends that we hope to see back on Sinclair year after year.

http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...e/IMG_0359.jpg
still starts with a M, just a little different
ha ha, no way, I could buy 2.5 Moomba's for the price of that boat.
here we are driving home
http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...e/IMG_0361.jpg
no cover for the drive home due to being in a wicked storm two nights before and there was nothing dry in the boat to say the least
Awesome pics. I'll try to get some up later today.
FYI: I showed up with a broken boat. Had a new strut put on but the shaft was bent and I didn't know it. I tested a prop freshly returned from being repaired but it was bent too and I didn't know it. With help from Todd and Drew we put the replacement shaft in right in Drew's driveway on Sat. before the jam. Later, with help from Drew and Stacy we re-did the alignment on Drew's lift and then figured out the real problem was that the "fixed" prop was still not right. Our shaft replacement and alignment was perfect. With the backup prop we were good to go with no vibration. I think we all learned a lot. I'm about to make a call to the prop repair guys.
Anyway, major PROPS to those guys for their help in getting me back on the water for a week of great fun. Major thanks to the entire Wolfeman crew for hosting a great event and a fun family vacation. It was great to see the Moombadaze family again and to meet Ryan, Jack, Jim, Scott, and everybody else plus wives and families. We really had a great time and I love the T-shirts!
Hey, what's that little fish???
My wife said someting bit her on the back a few times (felt like somebody pincher her hard she said) when she was swimming to our boat before we left Monday... We kept making fun of her that her suit was pinching her or a fly or something...yeah, we can be mean... lol. She said it was underwater and repeated "nibbles", so it definitley wasn't a fly :P
She ain't making that up. Every time I was in the water near Wolfeman's dock I got attacked. My youngest daughter was in the water all week and never got bit once. Maybe they can sense the mean people? :)
You callin' my wife mean ;) Lol.Quote:

Rare year for a number of items:
That was a small garfish and I think he was the culprit of the biting. Never had that happen before. We caught that one hanging out under the bouy we used for tying up the seadoo.
Afternoon popup showers. We have had a small shower in the past, but seemed like everyday we were having to check the skies in the afternoon. We even got caught in a major downpour one afternoon. Luckily, it was when the kids were tubing.
Boat repairs. Pat gave you the lowdown on his boat, but we also had issues with Stacy's and Todd's. Got Stacy's fixed by charging a battery, half of Todd's with some new electrical connectors but blower is still a mystery.
Yup, we got us some new slalom skiers. I'm still not sure how that happened. But they did a great job.
Fantastic! Would love to haul my Outback down there to pull them behind a direct drive.Quote:
