Nice weekend at the lake!!!  It was almost deserted compared to how it normally is on a summertime weekend.  Special thanks to John and Amy for making sure the event continued on as in years past!  clap.gif. We had a blast!

I only made it Saturday and it was great to see so many boats, the lake was very calm and not crowded at all, we pretty much had it all to our selves. I apoligize for leaving early but I just ran out of steam, worked late last night putting the finishing touches on Plan B and the sun just got to me.  Still had a great time!

Running wide open, the motor made a awefull noise, I looked at the oil pressure and it was zero. Shut it down and loads of white smoke that smelled like oil came billowing out of the engine compartment. Lots of oil in the bilge too, but the dipstick is only a quart low and the oil in the pan is real clean. Haven't messed with it since.... The guy I got the Enforcer motor from had another .30 over 460 block and rotating assembly for $150. I'll call him tomorrow and see if he still has it.

Anyway, had a great time with you south guys. That was a real nice cove we were in. Wish there would have been more passes close to the shore, but I think I got some real good video out on the water.
