hurricane? went boating anyway in central fla........

[Talon2.5]

it was cloudy and windy but found a good place to run, small gusts would pop up but it was still fun , on the way to the ramp i saw this.......

[Talon2.5]

i got to the spot first to meet with some friends and here they are showing up, the first two under cloudy skies

[Talon2.5]

big "D" bought a new boat and he was running her out trying different props

[Talon2.5]

hydrostream dave had some steering problems to work out, he ran a few times but in the thoughts of safety and keeping his rig in one piece the vector sat proudly at the chilled beverage spot

[Talon2.5]

another friend of ours showed up and displayed what his allison would do.......

[Talon2.5]

another of our allison owning friends showed up in a different boat that he ownes and took off with a few people that came on the allison

myself being the camera man, didnt get any shots of me running but i did scare the folks on the bank watching me that said i left the water twice with no hull touching at all, i did feel her come down once and felt the sponsons touch one at a time, had to be quick on the trim button with the winds poping up on ya in small bursts, but had a blast, i was dissapointed in my gps run 91.7 but next time maybe with a little nicer conditions and some cooler air soon it will be better, so here sits the ole talon waiting her turn to run

Where were you West lake? We were out in East lake.:cool:

[Talon2.5]

we went down the kissimmee river between lake hatchneha and lake kissimmee, just north of camp mack, we really dont care for east lake with all the pwc (lake lice) and it's too rough to run in with all the boat wakes if ya plan on laying down some gps runs

[skatermike24]

Got to try west lake and the river , have never been there. :cool:

[Talon2.5]

go into st.cloud and turn right on vermont that changes to canoe creek road, go about 12 miles, it's not a populated area once you pass deer run road (the blinking red light at the texaco)stay on canoe creek road and youll come to an overpass, at the base of that over pass take a right on the dirt road to lake cypress fish camp, put in on lake cypress, when you come out of the ramp head out and go to your left to about 11 oclock on the dial and youll hit the river

Sounds good thanks for the info. I'm gonna try to get this weekend if the wife lets me.:D

Well I didn't get to go out in the boat myself. But had to check the boats every 2 hours to make sure they were OK.. But I did get a nice trip to the hospital.. :( While cleaning up the house today I gave myself a severe sprain and possibly a torn ligament. Well now I have 6 weeks "acording to the ER doctor" to sit in front of the computer. No work to be done on the critchfield :(

I gotta tell ya, that Talon looks awesome. Tell us more about it!
