chris.brock Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) I think we need a new vehicle. My wife drives and I have to ride in the back jumpseat. Downrigging for lakers was tough. The bass were slow too. I've never seen or heard of this before. The loon was trying to steal our fish as we brought them in. Jet ski day. My buddy Ang dropped an 1100 triple into his stand-up. It felt like The Hand of God pushing you from zero to almost 60 mph. Ang, if you're reading this, your butt crack hanging out of your bathing suit all day did make me, and likely the other guys too, feel uncomfortable. Daniel has a heavily modded Super Jet with a carbon fiber hull. The critters are part of the experience. If she wants to nest over my jam jar, no problem, we'll stay away as much as we can. This guy knocked over my potted tomato plant. That's just the way it goes. If people get ticked off with stuff like this stuff, they should just live and stay in the city.

jtracc Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 Hey Chris have a look at the new F150 if you in the market. You can fit all your gear, family and tow a house. The best part is it's gonna get better gas mileage then your ranger. That's s nice stand up, I have always wanted one ever since I was a kid.

Old Ironmaker Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 Ahhh, Cottage life. A wonderful peek into your down time. Since ours is about an hour each way to Hamilton we found ourselves commuting most of the year. I said to my lady one spring evening why don't I gut this place and we can get rid of the house in the city. She said "Why not?" I proceeded to walk over to one of the bedroom walls and put my foot through it. Sold the house and moved into the first "home" I have ever owned. It is the first place I have lived that I would rather be home and can't wait to get back there like today and everyday. Enjoy my friend. Think about where your favorite place is, then move there. There are schools nearby I guarantee it, maybe even a store or 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris.brock Posted July 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 Dozer, anytime. I talked with MSP via PM and it's the same loon, small world here on OFC sometimes, so if anybody wants to hand feed a loon, PM either of us Old Ironmaker you did it right. Me and my wife are stuck in Oakville because of our jobs and don't have that option.. Mike, right on Dude, 420 Steelheadphycho, I thought there would be some other stand up riders on here, Ang said the 1100 pretty well drops right in. The new hull seems to be way easier to ride than the old ones. This was kind of cool. I remember seeing these things in the Autotrader years ago. I always thought these things are crap, what a piece of garbage. That's a picture of Ang's Kawi Jet Mate. The thing is a RIOT, we were giggling like school girls getting soaked. Julian, I hope things are going well. Would love to hear about the progress. There always seems to be some snags with a build though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
