Sorry folks... Insanely busy, and have had no updates from Inland to this point. I just called, and was told that the upholstery quote is in and awaiting approval, and the a replacement part that I requested to be replaced is on order, so it sounds like it will still be another week or two. Annual s...

The boat is still at Inland Marine... ETA when I dropped it off last week was two weeks or so, so it may get finished up and home next week. I finally had a chance today to pull all of the numbers from the phone messages, and I'll be trying to return calls tomorrow as I'm in town and will finally ha...

tunaman

Sorry guys... Am out of town, but will be returning the calls next week. Boat is currently at Inland being serviced.

tunaman

Hello all. Apologies, but I've been very busy with work and we've been away quite a bit. I have three or four phone messages that have come in while we were away that I have to return - I'll try to do so later this week. The boat is for sale... I'm going to drop it at Inland Marine today (was suppos...

tunaman

No worries - as we discussed, you need to buy exactly what you want and need. I fully understand!

I may be heading out next weekend... Have to see what plans the wife has for one of the days, but if nothing comes up between now and then I will let you know which day and you can come out and play.

tunaman

GAWD, I love my bote! Took it out today for a shakedown run - hasn't been on the water for longer than I care to admit. Fired right up first crank - Shawn, you missed out on a great deal! Launched by myself (of course), and took it for several laps around Franks easing into it. Had it cruising at 67...

tunaman

Didn't work out - boat is a bit bigger than the buyer was looking for.

Still on the block... Have more pictures tomorrow.

Also has Stealth1 onboard charger, and a brand new cranking battery.

tunaman

Thanks Rick!

Potential buyer coming to check it out tomorrow.

tunaman

I received a voice message last night, but had to work late. I'll return your call some time today to follow up, thanks!

Hey Jeff! Hope all is well with you! Currently 257 hours on the motor.

Thanks for asking.

Hi all,

I need to find a boat detailer somewhere in the local area so that I can get my Z20 polished up and presentable. A shop or capable individual, either way, and if they can do it onsite even better although I can certainly trailer it somewhere if necessary.

Thanks!
Roger

Tracy Rifle and Pistol is about the cheapest FFL around this area...

tunaman

Russo's is the place - nothing to worry about there, and you can either park it on the water or in their locked dry storage.

tunaman

If you would like to, I'll make room on my shock boat for you to attempt to collect bass for our studies. We routinely get over 100 fish an hour and it's not "play time" when I'm out there, I'm there to work, quickly, efficiently and with high precision. We do what we can with what limite...

1. Lipping a 10+ lb fish with only one hand and NOT supporting the fishes body---ESPECIALLY AT SPAWN TIME. You may think you look cool holding out that giant with one hand while breaking it's jaw....buuuuut you don't. It's great you caught a nice fish, but you've most likely irrepairably busted tha...

tunaman

Good to see you're back out there sir! Doesn't sound like you forgot how to catch 'em either...

tunaman

Pleasure Cove is the place to stay... great facilities and location. Everything from tent camping, motorhome spaces, and cabins from small to large.

Roger

Sorry... had my nose buried in the C7 reveal and haven't come up for air yet!!! That is a badass ride... wait 'til they start showing up on the road in September - they will turn heads for sure! We will have one September 2015... gotta let the first year of issue pass. Thanks for the poke BD!!! Roger

Happy New Year from Dresden Germany.

Keep an eye out, as I just found another spammer account trying to pollute the site, so if you see any please flag the posts so they can be attended to?

Roger

tunaman

You boyz better play nice... I'm in the banning mood, as I've already banned about 100 spammers in the last 24 hours and my ban button is warmed up!!!

Happy New Years guys, and enjoy whatever circuit you choose to fish!

Roger

tunaman

Danke - my family in Deutschland say "Danke dir auch aber rutsch nicht zu weit!"

Roger

tunaman

Patience my friend... You have no idea how bad this site has been hammered in the past 12 hours or so.

Looks like John and Wayne are on it now, so I'm going to stand down and enjoy the rest of the evening here in Germany!

Prost!!!

Roger

tunaman

Thanks BD - you're the BEST! Not necessary though - just trying to help my fellow Nutcases out! Hope all was great with the GF for Christmas, and that you guys are going to have a wonderful New Year's celebration! Also looking forward to seeing you soon in 2013! Roger P.S. These spammers are particu...

tunaman

Yeah, the spammers have hit WB hard today. I'm currently in Frankfurt Germany, and 9 hours ahead of you folks, and saw that they were hitting the site hard. I spent a couple of hours banning and cleaning earlier, and had it cleaned up, then went to our in-laws for a visit and came back to 87 new spa...

Great job Little Bailey! Way to go guys!

Roger

Y'all realize that you started replying to a four year old thread, right?

Roger

That is awesome, and I'm extremely happy for you Sean!!! WAY TO GO!!!

Roger

Yeah, all the Bay-area bridge tolls went up earlier this year... really hammered the tolls for those towing boats.

Saw the other post and fixed the link - thanks for pointing that out Randy, and thanks for you folks' contributions!

We drove through last night leaving Mr. Carpenter's, but didn't hit any speed bumps in the grass area so figured you hadn't made it to town yet.

It will be good to see you POPS - long time!

Roger

tunaman

Absolutely... I've had one on mine for 5 or 6 years and it works great. When I first got it, we had a club tournament at Havasu. I purposely left the batteries off the charger prior to going, and the first morning I made a long run up to the London bridge and worked my way back down during the day. ...

Time for the folks to step up here and get involved - we're getting close and need a bunch of folks to jump in and sign up PLEASE? We only have a few sign-ups so far, and need a bunch more boaters to make this a success! You won't be disappointed, as this is the feel-good event of the season for sur...

They will head for Union Point and be corrupted by the pleasure boat crew that habitates the venue during the warmer months... probably also stopping along the way at some of the swim beaches to check out the g-string action!

Corrupted forever...

Thank the powers that be then for WON - I've learned more from a day on the water with Aaron Martens, Mike Folkstad and Roy Hawk (tour-level pros) than I can articulate. These guys are at the level they are at for a reason, and it is a special opportunity to be able to fish and learn from them. One ...

I'm not going to vote - I say make it what you want it to be, as you're the sponsor! I'm abivalent as to what 'brand' to place on it... if one brand steps up to sponsor it big, then maybe they should have some consideration. Else if no real sponsorship incentive, then it matters little who the brand...

I know that Obi rented one for one of our previous Nutcase events, held at Pleasure Cove, and several of the gang stayed there - it was one of the larger cabins. This past January while up there for the Winter Nutcase, Mona and I went for a walk and peeked into the windows of one - they are nice, cl...

Can't beat the value on the Costco or Walmart replacements - I just had to replace my 36v system, as my trolling motor was nearly dead half way through the recent Nutcase (SORRY BRIAN!), and Brian suggested the Walmart Everstart Maxx Group 29 replacements so we ran over and picked them up. They were...

Purty bote, and so cool to see it actually coming together!

I wanted to take a minute to post a very big THANKS to Frank and the gang at Inland Marine - you guys (and gal!) ROCK! Aside from the Winter Nutcase trip to Berryessa in January, my boat hadn't been out this year until sTony and I took it out a few weeks ago. The boat ran great all day, and we put s...

tunaman

Lyons and O'Haver do great work also, as mentioned... just don't do what I did and go with Global Fish Mounts - totally a bad experience all the way around, and very disappointing results as those who know the sordid details can attest!

Nice trophy - good on you for releasing her!

Roger

OK folks... we're working on one little issue, which may or may not affect us, but regardless we will be having our fellowship known affectionately as the "Nutcase" tomorrow! I'll be making calls today to be sure everyone knows the logistics, and will be sending out an email with a map and...

See the main post for the full reply, but logistics copied here: Meet and greet, pairings, checkpoint - 5:30 - 6:30 AM Launch - 6:30 AM Weigh-in - 3:00 PM 2 fish limit After party starts at 4:00 PM at tuna's, not far from Russo's. Directions will be emailed to those who signed up via the web form - ...

tunaman

OK gang - sorry for the delay. Cooch had brought something up on Tuesday that might have redirected our efforts, but I just talked with him and there were no further developments so we are proceeding as originally intended. Here are the details: Meet and greet, pairings, checkpoint - 5:30 - 6:30 AM ...
