We are very excited for Green Lake!
We will be bring up the Inca Gold Barracuda, or as my son calls it, The Green Boat, The Yellow Boat, or the fast boat. This Barracuda definitely is faster than our 1998 Air Nautique with the GT40. Unfortunately we are losing our storage spot for the Barracuda so we are forced to sell it. (The Air Nautique is staying). I hope some people coming to Green Lake are looking to take a boat home. If anyone would like to ski behind, wakeboard, tube, or cuz on the Barracuda let me know. http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=4402 |

Took Grandma Atom Skier out for a shake down on the 4th. Sounds good, no?

One rig is ready to go, spent the day working on the 200. Oil change, fuel filters, new impeller, then a clay bar and detail job. Tomorrow night the Hurricane gets done and were good to go.

Hello everyone. I came across this forum on a random search about my 2000 Ski Nautique. I see you guys have some sort of event going on in Green Lake, WI this weekend? Coincidentally I will be camping there this weekend and family and will be bringing the boat up. I am wondering what type of event you guys have going on and what it all entails. Thank you!

Come on and Join. I think Mojo said we could add if we had more takers... Going to Limp the Show this weekend and then it's teardown time. Think I found another boat to tide me over until I am done with it. Stringers ahead !

Sounds like a great event! Let me check with the family as it was supposed to be a camping/boating weekend but my love for Nautiques may change that. Ha! We are staying at Green Lake Campground and already plan to be on the lake on Saturday if the weather cooperates. Thanks for the info.

[/QUOTE] I fear this has been the case. I have been waiting for a new drive shaft for mine so it got it's once every three years whether it needs it or not cleaning. (Apparently it had been set on fire at some point within those last three years, which made it a very dirty job). Now the trailer needs new lights, new hubs, new tires, and to borrow some guide poles -I ruled out new paint as I didn't want to make the boat jealous. Then tomorrow I just reinstall the running gear, align it, change the oil, and hope it still runs. This boat ownership stuff is harder work than I remember. Rob Leinen - congrats on the nuptials. I wouldn't consider renting a tow vehicle, that just sounds expensive just load up the girls and some in the wifes car and head on out, assuming I can get my truck and boat there in one piece you guys are always welcome on my boat for the weekend. Can't wait to meet up with the old crew and meet some new ones, hoping to make the Goose blind for pizza thurs night lateish. |

What great timing on your part to find this site a few days before the Green Lake festivities and being able to make it to them. Talk about jumping into CCF with both feet. You won't be disappointed, great boats and a great bunch of guys and gals. A good time is guaranteed! Have fun Brandon, family and all the old regulars!! |

If you are staying at Hattie Sherwood, you are part of the event whether you want to or not! This group pretty much populates the entire campground for the weekend. If the festivities are appealing to you and your family (it is a family event with lots of S.O. and kids), feel free to join in. You can register at the T-shirt table Friday night during the boat show. Basically, the event breaks down like this:
Friday evening out of the water boat show at the American Legion Hall (down the street from the Goose Blind). Grilled food and beer provided. Saturday at Noon-ish, we all cruise from Dartford Bay (near city of GL boat launch) to the sandbar in Norwegian Bay. Anchor and spend the afternoon/evening getting to know everyone and their boats. Saturday evening - pig roast in the park. Beer provided. Adjourn to the Goose. Sunday - meet up at the sandbar until folks need to head back. There is only one rule to the event but it is important. Beware of Quinner. Protect your wife, kids and even your pets. Especially your pets. Keep Coors Light at hand. If he gets too close, throw a Coors Light into a camp site a couple down the road. He'll go after it like a pit bull to a t-bone and you'll have 7-8 minutes to find safe refuge. |

Wheew! I was afraid the Coors Lite was for drinking! Turns out to be a diversion.

Finally some chatter. We have the boat in good shape for the shape its in. Just have to make it through the work week and cross our fingers that the explorer is up for the ten hour round trip. Is it Friday yet??

For thousands of years men have felt the irresistible urge to go to sea, and many of them died. Things got better after they invented boats.

Thanks for all the info. We are staying at the Green Lake Campground. We tried to get into the Hattie campground but was booked up (for obvious reasons now). I think I will try to catch up with you guys on the lake on Saturday. My son, nephews, and myself would love to see the other CC/Nautiques! See you Saturday hopefully!

Just finished the steering wheel. Cleaned it with TSP first. The bucket was disgustingly dirty. Wonder whose DNA is in there? Who could have touched this wheel since 1955? Elvis? Roy Rogers? Howdy Doody? Ed Gein? Yikes!

The Tent in the living room cracks me up. First time for both of my girls as well so this should be interesting. We just got done doing our pre trip shopping. Changed the Oil on the boat and filled it with fuel. Hidden away in the packed garage ready for the hook. I am going to try on Friday to get done a little early (Yeah right !) so hope to see all at the Legion.

Does this course actually exist at GL? I've heard rumors of its existence since the first trip but I've never seen it and it's never been documented that I know of. Is it a floating course or individually anchored balls? Does it have pre-gates? I want to know more about this mystical GL attraction. |

Joel - Come on, how have you not found it. If I have skied it once I have skied it 30 times. It is a permanent course, so I believe individually anchored balls. I think it does have pre-gates (but I am not 100% certain). It is just west of Blackbird's Point, over by Margaret Dodge Memorial Park. You can see the course on Google Earth if you zoom in just north of Terrace Shores Evangelical Free Church (Hwy K Markesan, WI). It has Slalom Ski and Kneeboard gates. |

Yep, Steve's right. Down by County Park. Far Southwest side..
We'll be coming in late Thursday night....... Temps through the weekend should get into the mid 80's. Only a chance for an afternoon shower. Should be great.. The water temps are a little cool out in the deep, but in the bay, it's perfect.. Very little vegitation this year... Had a great time with Raindog and crew this past Sat out there !!! So for Friday, not to worry if you pull in there later. Theres no set hours for the show.. Just come by, grab a beer and register the boat.. Sat, if you don't have a ride, hook yourself up on Fri night !!!! Come by and mingle and or ask us at the registration table and we'll help out.. Only a few days away.. Get those trailers ready boys !!! |
