It will be great to have another Hoosier there. We'll be coming from South Bend, and are also at the Bayview. Hope to see you there!

We are from Indiana so we would need to stay overnight, is there a motel with docks? or would we have to put the boat in and take it out each day? Also are there any lake permits that would have to be purchased for a out of state boat or will my Indiana tags work? Roger

Roger,

There are no special tags required, your Indiana numbers are fine.

As for motels on the lake you may be a little late but try the Bayview, they are full right now but we have seen rooms come available from occaisional cancelations. You can find their number as well as other motels in the area on the registration page or from the chamber of commerce, there are links for all that on that page.

If you don't find anything in town it seems like the next best place would be in Ripon only 6 miles away, the ramp on the lake is fine so trailering and launching each day is not a big deal. The ramp is across the street from where we will be having dinner saturday night. For the most part everything is very centrally located so don't sweat it, you'll be fine. Look forward to meeting you.

M3, Make sure he enters the BW under the "other" catagory LOL !! Those boats are perfect from GL really !!! There is a 30 foot Pursuit out there with twin 300's that is killer?? The guy had a mansion in Gulf Shores (which was flattened by Katrina), so this boat and two Cobalts are stranded on Green Lake.. At least the boats made it out of there..

We came in fashionably late and didn't really have anywhere to go. Definitely need to get there earlier next time.

Anyone ever figure out who's Boston Whaler type thing we kept moving around belonged to?? That thing was cramping my style.

Maybe we will have everyone line up in the marina and head out earlier than this year.. The sand bar packs up if you don't get there early on a hot day..

Chris,

Your on, all I will have to do is slow down everytime I need another beer!

Chris once I get the new heads bolted on and the ignition dialed in I might just take brownie and the cooler to give you a chance.

Oops- I knew they made some Corvettes in '98. I didnt realize it was a split year for the Response.

I'll open a beer and follow the drag racers.

The Corvette boat was based on a Response (98-02) hull, so it would have been 19 or 20'. Malibu gets a lot of hull out of the water though, so their boats are generally pretty fast. Of course the 383 Callaway motor helps. There's one on my lake and its fast (and loud) but the thing has had a lot of engine troubles.

Maybe if I get those Hi-Teks... you won't even be able to keep up out of the hole either, hell I'll even use the 14x14 prop instead of the 470 then again why switch it comes out of the hole just as good using either so it won't really make a difference.

You may be right- but Im not afraid to line up and let you prove it.

Its a good thing theres not much debate on this poll question... getting just a little OT here!

with my new heads and exhaust I wouldn't even waiste my gas lining up, He can try and pa$$ me and see how long that doesn't last. Hell I'll even but new plugs in and adjust the timing curve. Ran old plugs and too much advance last year, didn't even have it out long enough to install the curve kit I bought for it or the steering wheel.

I think we're going to have to get Tim's 90 lined up with 79's 79 in the water...
