A few of us are heading to Steel Creek Saturday July 27th .. I am finally go to get my boat in the water this year ..
I am hoping a few boats will show up .. Time to get the boat wet and enjoy some water ..
I am hoping a new boat to the area will show up .. Blown BBC in a Hondo V-Drive .. I heard it is freaking fast ..Hope he makes it Saturday

Thanks for the pics Billy, sure makes me miss going up there. Some nice hardware for sure. The turbo'd Ford is not something you see every day. Your boat run good?

I know what you mean about taking pictures, me or the wife used to go around taking a bunch... started slacking off bad after the camera died. My phone doesn't take that good of pictures. :smile24:

Kenny -- I am afraid I might drop my phone in the water .. My phone takes OK pictures but I normally forget to take pictures ..  Yeah Justin been working on that Turbo Ford over the winter .. He is getting it dialed in now .. It runs good for a heavy boat ..  My old Boat ran good ,, Made 4 passes and turn 6800 RPM on each pass .. Did not have my GPS with me , some one was borrowing it .. Water was perfect as you can see in the pictures ..  The ramp was packed at Steel Creek because a lot of the parks are still closed due to the flood we had .. Plowman Creek  is closed and they say it might not open until next year .. That sucks ..

Looks like a good time for sure. Some beautiful boats also.Do you all go Saturday or Sunday?

We normally go on Saturdays when they decide to go .. With all the flooding it has been limited on when we could get out ..

I hear ya on that. One benefit to having the cheap phone I have now, something happens to it, I'm only out about 60 bucks, lol. Would hate to lose what pics & info is on there though. Good to hear about your boat, nice not having any bugs to work out after they sit. Yes, water & weather looked awesome. Sucks about Plowmans park being closed, such a good location. Even if they didn't allow camping, be nice if could at least use the ramp, or as a primitive campground till the facilities get fixed.
