I sure had fun hanging out  with everyone and meeting some new people .. I  always love going to Steel Creek . Most of the time we have good water , The water is  getting low now, but still was able to have some fun running the boat and visiting with everyone ..

I almost have my boat to where I want it .. If I can get rid of those two little hops on take off. It will be where I want it  for a slow lake boat

Na you cannot get away with that statement anymore your ship will run.  clap.gif clap.gif clap.gif

Enjoyed the couple hours I had there.  Glad to always meet new folks, and see boats not seen before.  Some very nice  boats.  If I can get off butt finish up flat, and Running Late does same and Tony had come out would have had 3 more flats on the water.

Glad to make few new friends and look forward to doing it again......... maybe cooler next time!

Had a great time meeting everyone and checking out their toys. The better half of the Disturbed family took some video for everyone too! Jk Tim. As soon as I can figure out how all this technology stuff works I will post them.

One last thing. I want to throw a special THANK YOU out to JJ Beaver who let me bum around in his blown schiada day-cruiser and for spending most of his "free time" helping people in every way possible. Every boat in or out saw his helping hands first.

Mr. Beaver, thank you for spreading your vast wealth of knowledge to all of us so we can safely experience the thrills of our passion. My hat's off to you Sir!!!!

What a great day at the lake!!!!! I had a good time meeting everyone and checking out the bad azz hardware that showed up. I had never been to Steele Creek before but what a great place to bring a little hot rod boat. If and when I get mine running I plan to make it back as often as possible. I wanted to say thanks to Billy for the invite and for standing out in the water at the end of the day to help everyone get loaded up. Also want to thank JJ for checking out my drivetrain and pointing me in the right direction. Both are class acts!! As always, the hospitality of all the THB members was second to none and motivation for me to get mine finished. Maybe next year I will be able to drag my own chunk of fiberglass to some events.  Yea.......I know..........broken record!!!!!  :grin:

I agree, the B.S. session at the lodge was a blast. You must have been real tired to sleep through the  rucuss that was going on just outside your window. LOL!!!!! :grin:
