Re: Ready to launch

Where you headed? Silverwood? Brrrrrrr..... We'll have to race at Havasu, as my 14' Sea Nymph is about the same size and we have the same motor. 11.9 MPH GPS . . . Have fun. No swimming!

It is almost swimming weather around here. We had the 12 footer out two weekends ago and were wading to launch and retrieve it. It will hopefully be out again Sunday.

Re: Ready to launch

Rats, had to work on saturday and having concrete poured at home so the guy said he would come over sunday for the estimate for the job:| Plus they back ordered my fish finder:| So I got up this morning and early and hot footed it to Bass pro shop in Las Vegas only 2hr and 45min.s from my house. Man I cannot believe all the stuff they have there it is great so I got my fish finder and a whole bunch of other stuff and made it home to meet the contractor concrete going in on wednesday then I hope I will be good to go fishing:|

Re: Ready to launch

QC, I did notice that the offramp to get to mead (146) I think is closed how do you get to mead with the off ramp closed. I was thinking of making a run there shortly to show the wife spend the day on the lake and a night in Vegas. Have you been to that bass pro shop off of blue diamond if you have not you have just got to go in and check it out man they have everything in there.

Re: Ready to launch

I wonder how long that's gonna be a problem . . . Anyway, you can get off the 15 at Nipton Road like you're going to Cottonwood Cove on Mohave. Follow it to Searchlight and you make a left on 95. It basically takes you straight to Boulder City, the entrance is 5 - 10 minutes from there. That's the way I come home on Sundays to avoid the Vegas traffic near stateline. Pretty hilly , but it's a cool drive if you've never done it. Watch for speed traps on 95 in NV . . .

If you feel like a big trek take the 40 out to Kingman and then head north on 93 and turn east to on the Temple Bar turn off. Most remote marina on Mead and very scenic. They have a hotel and a store and restaurant. Nothing else there . . .

I have not been to Bass Pro shops anywhere. I have this dream of outfitting a fishing rig, I have the dream not the cash . . . I keep trying to get the family to let me sell the Carrera, wife says no way, kids are lukewarm. I think I want a dual console or walkaround that I could use off shore some, but that would still be a cool rig for Striper on Mead.

Re: Ready to launch

QC, the Temple Bar sounds great but for the first time for the wife I will take her the nipton way she really likes them casinos plus we have been to cottonwood before to. The center console is a sweet set-up for offshore and mead I have run to catalina in a few of them. But for family comfort the duel works better. I cannot believe how big Vegas has got if you get a chance to check out the bass pro shop it is great. I drove up by my self I just had to get away for work and work at home for just alittle while I had to meet the concrete guy the same day too but it all worked out. I have been trying to get the wife in the ocean but she will not go I think I am taking the jon boat out to silverwood this weekend so I will take the gps and get a speed reading on my boat. If it is not at least 11.9 mph I might have to at a hydrofoil!!!! just kidding.

LOL 8)

Have you been to the Hacienda before? Cool old casino. Kinda run down, but we like it. Temple Bar is great, but there is nothing to do there at night.

I love center consoles, but need to be able to get everybody out of the weather for Catalina . . . If it wasn't for that I'd love a fast CC. There are a couple of high end flashy ones at Havasu that make me drool.
