[snoflake]

Whos going to be heading out this weekend ? We are heading to Saunders

Can’t make er this weekend. Hitting lower red tomorrow aft to scratch the itch. Hope to hit Saunders maybe next weekend. Did manage to get the trail tech installed in the boat. Nice for a Speedo, odometer, GPS, and stereo control. Cheaped out on the big gauge from FF.

Was out on the nsr last weekend north of Saskatoon. My Dads first river boat and the first time driving one. He’s not used to the full send ways and let off when a sand bar was ahead of him and got stuck. Easy pull with the two boats however the starter on his rig failed. I towed him 12 km up river to the nearest launch then drove to the next launch to pick up the trucks and load my rig up.

It was a heavy pull, looking back at some photos I should of had 200ft of rope for towing. my jet wash was pretty much going 100ft back to his boat. Hopefully I don’t have to tow anyone anytime soon but next time I’ll have 200ft of rope in between.

Had the mini in the upper Red Deer yesterday, what a blast that area is.

Got out for the first trip on Saturday, beautiful day, sunburns all around.

Went out yesterday for a mothers days bbq. My dads 383 with a whipple super charger on it burnt double the fuel as my 557 stroker did. Same length of boats but his is a few degrees flatter and a bit wider. Boat seems to work good, maybe the pump needs to be freshened up.

Was that out at Saunders? If so how is the water level?

I launched at home, downstream of saunders 45min, water level was good.

Dang, you were correct on your view. Turns out the really expensive headers were built to tight to the engine and burnt up the hard to find coil packs during testing. Didn't even get to the start line. however, we were able to spend the weekend watching races on the river with some great people from the area and consume some gool ol cheap USA spirits.

Water was high on the Sheep River, was able to make it up pretty far the other day. Highwood hasn't started to rise yet though.

Finally got out…

Upper Red was great on Saturday. Fair amount of water, and nice and clean. Quick vid of buds 15ft sport with flo-pro and LS set up.

^^^ love that little boat, really opened my eyes last summer. It just went EVERYWHERE and did it on pump regular… and burned less liters than the mini that ran out of gas and we towed it and the crew home lol
