Lake Boat

Just thought I would ask, what is considered a lake boat? Is that anything you can drag to a body of water make 1 pass then sit on shore or a boat that will cruise the lake all day or what?

Anything you can drag out to the water and have a good time with. Hopefully it's good for more than one pass but isn't it the socializing with friends and getting out and relaxing that's the whole point?  :grin:

Mainly the waight of the boat the lighter ones are easier to make go fast but tend to break up getting beat up all day on rough water

I think it should have the TX numbers on the boat and be able to pass the laws on that lake . That is where it will vary a lot .. I think you should have the flame arrestor, baffles and water to the headers, might not use them all the time , but have them in case the law is there .

I know my boat can not go all day , but I consider it a lake boat , but I am limited on how far I can go on fuel and possible oil getting to hot , due to my block .

This should get intersting on this one ..

Seen people really goin after it on PB on this topic.... lol :grin: Me personally, I'd say something with at least 2 seats & be able to run around for awhile?

I don't know, I guess some days I must have a race boat, cuz I'll make a pass or two, hit the beach, then BS the rest of the afternoon away not moving till its time to head to the ramp to load up.  :cheesy:

D-Man , I thught your was a Race Boat , I have seen it sitting close to mine all day ..

Thats right Billy, we got race boats right....  :grin: I'd say your description is pretty spot on. There was a couple guys that brought a CP out to Colet couple years ago, straight up race boat. No numbers, single seat I believe with a 1 gallon fuel cell, rope deflector, etc.. Nice guys, they are members here, but haven't been around in awhile, they was from the Houston area I think. They made a lot of passes that afternoon, 13 dollars a wack. Not sure what they was running for fuel, but thats what he said he paid per gallon. :shocked:

That reminds me of those Oklahoma boys that was next to me at Plowman a few years back , Blown Injected Alcohol , could make one warm up run and one full pass and time to fill it back up again , They were burning almost 5 gallons each time .. I do not consider that to be a Lake Boat , fun to watch though .

Kinda like Cornbread Blown Alky boat , you can play a little at the river , but it not a lake Boat ..

I am guilty of that too , I will make a pass or two and then park the boat and B.S. with everyone . It a lot cheaper that way ..
