Dont know bout Lengthy, but Im steerin clear of the crowded class 3 minus run. Ill be savin gas money, spendin it on some real good beer, and hangn W.PA r W.VA. Seems to be a base, so all we needs a bit o rain.

thanks for invtng the world gumpy, guess that leaves less room for you, tho the back yard is loaded with acorns so I dont know how good the camping is, and where the women are coming from.

As far as I fgure the inside of the house is full, waiting on final count from Elvis.

By the way if anyone is headng down and has a big boy c-1. Converson or other Id love to give it a try. I paddled a Fluid solo converson and love to compare.
I can let ya try my Ntro or skeeter or ME in return. Id love to try a Taureau, or a prelude as well.

TonyB,

I've got a Sweet Hahn C-1 that I can bring down. I don't think that you're going to find a much bigger "big boy" C-1 than that.

Jim

jottse: thanks will a fat guy lke me fit n it?

Jim: awsome! love to try it out, I got a big belly, 38 waiste would I need to chase down a skirt? a kayak skirt wouldnt work would it?

Gumpy: blow it out your ascott, Mcmahn!

oh by the way Gumpys got a detonator and fly that anyone can borrow from him , and his buddy makes really good Lemon chello that Gumpy should have at the take out, (or put in)

but then if we get some rain he's gonna try and chase other local creeks

Wowzers, lots o ocs out on the water this past weekend! Good ta see yins all out there, shout out ta gumpy, jc, tony b, the lurkers an everone else I was too drunk to remember meetin. Thnx east coast crew 4 pullin out the fine weather 4 us. And thanks all 4 givin Danger Joel all that luvn over the vgc HD1 he brought down 4 the weekend. He was juiced over all the rockstar attention.
Believe we spyd Mr. Michaud cruisin Sun., but he gave us nary a glance. And nobody tried to show me no lines, so I suppose J.G. was too busy w/ the Harley post to get out an boat.
Hey nice pics so far, I see a L boat an duh HD in one of them. Anybody got any more?
Finally, were da h e l l was fleckbass? Guess he was still shoppin 4 a stick, or scrappin low water. You missd a good time dude, an another run 4 yer lifelist.

Sorry Longboatin. I didn't mean to snub you. There were so many C-boats out there that I didn't know who was paddling with who. I sure would have liked to have met you. Maybe at the ALF next year?
