We are finally back on the water for only the 2nd time this season. Work has sucked but whatever, we’re out now! Got a Insta360 camera for Father’s Day and trying to figure things out. It’s wild to reframe whatever after shooting footage and I have a lot to learn lol.

Great pics. We’d love to be on the water but all the lakes around here are flooded and full of debris. Our home lake is 25ft high [emoji37]

Ouch that sucks man!!
Trying the editor app for the first time and it’s going to take me a bit to learn this thing lol. Also tried some floaters and 360’s and I did backside on the goofy wave and damn you goofy guys have it made. That wave is stacked and a lot of power too. It kept teething me off the back as I just tried to hang onto the rope lol. Going to try that more often to get a feel for surfing backside.

After 13 rainy weekends we got a 100 degree Monday at the lake. Simply amazing Family day on the water. Love the pic of my daughter's face as we start to cross our own wake.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...1b6934acbc.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...0656b88bd1.jpg

Hak I'm getting a lil dizzy looking at those pics. LOL
I'm finally catching up with the winter projects that well never happened. Giving the swim platform some love after 24 years of abuse.

If you've never seen one of these HF specials for cutting cardboard I'd recommend one. Cut through the Hydroturf so cleanly it was perfect - way better than any box knife could do.

Then time to give the trailer fenders a little love as well since I just put new tires on it. I had the original laser etched grip tape type stuff for step pads with the classic Moomba logo. Was kind of sad to see that go but with the new Hydroturf across the whole fender it is so much better. Covered up a few scratches and rock chips in the process.

Had I done this about 2-3 years ago I probably would have saved myself from slipping off the edge and breaking my foot right in the middle of summer...

Finally ready to hit the water!
The new deck looks good Bergmaister. We spent a few days at Lake Powell. Came across this boat "docked" in the wrong space LOL. I hope everyone survived, and would love to hear the story.
They all survived, though one person was life flighted out. They were out on the lake and a storm blew in and they were rushing back to the marina. One of their dogs distracted them and they wound up on the rocks. Pretty harrowing!Quote:

Speaking of crashed boats, did yall see that freak storm whip up on I think it was Lake Tahoe? Winds were roaring and waves got reportedly 8-10’ and then even some snow fell. All within about 45 minutes. Crazy footage!
And then theres that viral video of the idiot in a Malibu trying to kill jet skiers in a floating marina of all places! People are stupid!
Packing up the truck right now and about to head to the lake for the rest of the week and weekend! ‘Murica! Y’all be safe out there.
The Tahoe storm was crazy. I’ve been out there in the winter when the winds were blowing on the tops of the mtns at 80mph at the north side resorts. Down at lake level, it was probably 30-40mph.
Man do they have some awesome looking water in the summertime. Heard they have crazy regulations too.

I read where they found the Malibu boat abandoned, then two guys were arrested.
Both guys had prior arrests before the boating incident - sounded like fine upstanding citizens - here is part of the article after the arrest.
According to localcrimenews, Erick was arrested on May 3 this year by the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Department for assault with any means of force likely to produce great bodily injury. He was also arrested on Sept. 5, 2024, by Contra Costa CHP for threats of violence. Danny was also arrested on May 3 this year, but by Walnut Creek Police, for being intoxicated in public and resisting a peace officer with injury.

2 men arrested after reckless boating incident in Discovery Bay:
Days after a reckless boating incident in Discovery Bay injured one person, the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office announced Thursday (06/26) that two men allegedly involved were arrested for assault with a deadly weapon.
Videos of the June 22 incident were “widely shared on social media,” the sheriff’s office said, and an investigation was launched by the Marine Services Unit. Multiple witnesses reported to authorities that a boat was chasing a personal watercraft, commonly referred to by the brand name Jet Ski, inside the marina at high speeds.
The chase resulted in a collision, which injured the jet skier, CCCSO said. The injured male was treated at a local hospital.
Deputies identified two of the boat operators as Erick Garcia, 33, and Danny Garcia, 34, both of Oakley. Authorities located the boat abandoned in Stockton, the sheriff’s office said.
Erick was arrested Wednesday during a traffic stop in Oakley, while Danny was arrested as law enforcement served a search warrant at his home.
Both were booked into the Martinez Detention Facility for two counts of assault with a deadly weapon, two counts of criminal threats and one count of vandalism. Bail was set at $95,000.
Anyone with additional information or video footage is asked to contact the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office Marine Services Unit at 925-383-4906.

One of these years I’m going to make the trip up!
We made it down to the same lake house we rented last year since our dog enjoyed it so much and it’s in a great, quiet spot and it’s not far from where we normally store my boat. Had my first Bluetooth won’t pair or detect device issue but finally got that fixed by switching to Internal antenna mode.
Now it’s time to enjoy the holiday week and weekend!

8 people died when their boat flipped in that storm. So sad!Quote:

The boat looks great in that calm water. You planning on throwing tint on the windshield? I think it would add to the black hull, but just a personal opinion.
I like that the tint keeps under windshield area cool-ish.
Thanks man! I have thought about tint but if I did then it would be 35 or 20%. I look through the windshield and need to be able to spot debris and logs. I rode in my salesman’s SA which has dark tent and the Heim was certainly more cool feeling than without tint. I also agree it would look pretty sick with the black gel and tint. Maybe next season or in the off season, we’ll see.
Great video.

Saw an all white Supra on the way there. Maybe it’s someone on here?
