Don't count on me too much....

1. tentatively (If we get it together) the plan is to run the scarab at boyne, we have a back up plan to that....
2. my Dad needs some glass help on his boat to use it this season... Given the choice I will fix my Dad's boat before mine.

Got my release form from Ford today for the 2017 Super Duty. Had to fax in my insurance info, should be all set.

With that said, do I get Wayne by default?:Flush:

I'm gonna have to go with scott for $20 too.

Btw. Speed on the water may be asking for a ride or 2

That shouldn't be a problem! They can ride with Rob :smiley-with-glasses

For the poker run or Thursday fun run?

Dont know when they will be intown so Im not sure but as of now we have nothing lined up

I've got room... and this may be Ace's first Boyne thunder :embarrassed-smiley1

Final boat signed up for Water St. for the street show!

How will you have room with Doc T's Hoveround strapped to the engine hatch?:nutkick

I have a hoveround lift for my new golfcart. Lift scooter on golfcart, strap golf cart to hatch, DUN.

Listen carefully!! GFYS:smilie_iek_008:

You could probably strap 2 :oldoldold on your trailer drive guard.....

If you are coming from I 75 you might want to get off at Vanderbilt and come across Thumb Lake rd into Boyne Falls. If you are coming from Grand Rapids, you might turn at M66 at Mancelona and cut across from East Jordan to Boyne City. The road work from Boyne Mt. To Elmira hill is going to be tight getting finished. Just a heads up to check on road construction before heading up

Tom B. Offered to bring up a new toy for the street show. This will make a nice add to the street.

Really nice! Love those old race boats & engines

May need to add Brooks to that list :thinking-023:

Will just be Lori and I in the boat with the arch :smiley-with-glasses

Ok Mr Smartty pants, $20 to Camp Quality to who gets done first?:reality

Arch? Are we talking about the Golden Arches? I thought that boat came from Charlevoix. Lol

Done..















...pulling the engines :embarrassed-smiley1

:laff:laff

Fox offered an extra 3 grand off!!!:thinking-023:

John Tokar stopped into the garage yesterday, they dropped off the Outerlimits at Boyne Boat Yard. They are just storing it there until Boyne Thunder.

Cool!! they gunna use it B4 then???

Sounds like they will be up for the whole week.

Just to clarify, you are referring to work on 131 from Boyne Falls south to just south of the county line? Is CR32 still accessible?

Just looked it up on MDOT site. Sounds like asphalt crack repair, which probably means loose stones and hot tar.

Yes on the 131. 32 is open, Korthase rd would be the cut across from there, it is old and nasty on south end and north end is dirt in several spots( re doing rd). I would take M66 at Mancelona then cut over from East Jordan.

Perfect, thanks

I will be running up 131 tomorrow...I will report back with progress and issues.

Thanx!!

My boat will be done close of business tomorrow:popcorn

This truck signed up for the street show. The guy is from the east coast. He was raised in East Jordan. Denny Hamlin drove his car before he made it to NASCAR.

So heres the deal on 131....they are done patching the cracks. no pea stone was used. There are intermittent lane closures but only takes a couple of minutes. From my construction background it looks like they are widening it for a passing lane then going to repave the whole stretch.

Keep the road updates coming, want to avoid construction zones/debris towing the tilted cat. Team Cuz I Can MTI from central/western NY, planning to cross through Canada to shave some miles.

Looking forward to a great time, please introduce yourselves when you see us so we can share some laughs.

Tough to be leaving the Fountain at home- especially with Fountain Friday street show, but a big part of our fun is the travel to/from events together as a team in one rig.

Should be arriving Wednesday night, to enjoy Thursday fun run and Friday show/stereo wars.

What's the best advice you can give to first timers at Boyne event ??

I got my 2 extra wrist bands purchased for my additional crew.

Well one of the first things is to come early and you have that part taken care of.

Second, we cover a lot of water. I suggest planning to run w others to the card stops.

Third with the route you plan to take, as your heading north on I 75 you will likely want to take the route from the Vanderbilt exit. This will allow you to avoid the construction that has been mentioned. On your gps, this is likely not the route it would normally take you.

Fourth, make sure to leave the docks and go downtown between 5-9pm. Its easy to get wrapped up talking to people and looking at boats on the dock but the street show is very cool and everyone will be coming back to the docks for stereo wars anyways.

Last, I will look for you as my wifes name is also Kelly O so we have to meet up

See you there! Big yellow beak, 'Triple A'
