:clappingsmile Great shots. Thank you for sharing!!

Seeing the Salor Jerry boat thought I would ask the question------

Do you know who Sailor Jerry was?? Rum OK but not really..
Rum named after him...









Sailor Jerry was a famous Tattoo Artist. I have a friend with a couple of his tats...

Thanks for the pics!! Nice shots.

Great shots Mike! As always!

Thanks Mike. Look forward to seeing your gang on my lake soon!

Great pics Mike, thanks for posting them

Great job with the camera! That chopper pilot was unbelievable...the skids on that bird were submerged while she climbed aboard. We all held our breath. I'll try to upload the video.

The video would be great, as I have only seen it on Facebook, and can't copy that to the board.

Awesome! Thanks!!!:rock

I missed it, why was this person being picked up by a helo? What happened to them and are they alright?

Quite a feat for sure. I've watched the Park Police helo's do some pretty crazy tricks, lot of them are old Vietnam pilots that been there, done that, with bullets flying at them.

AWESOME pics

I was told that she was the pilot's girlfriend and that she hopped a ride in one of the Skaters to the raft up. so then she swims out and he scoops her up. There is a great picture posted of the bbq plates blown all over somebody's $50,000 paintjob. oops!

you are correct now if you want to google Windship you may be surprised who owns that chopper.

That's John Woodruff in the chopper and his girlfriend Nancy. He is form Lake Lanier GA and we see his 48 MTI Windship and his helicopter all the time around here.

Because he could. :1bounce:1bounce:1bounce
