GLF

Welcome to the site Drew. Glad to see you finally decided to do an intro. We look foreward to seeing you around.

We are digging into this post further. I have been in contact with a member of the Coast Guard. I found out where this information came from. This information came from an archive and is not current.

I spoke with Tiara Yachts today. They do offer tours. It is a 1 1/2 - 2 hour tour. The tour would have to be done during the week. Tour times are from 10am - 12pm or 1pm - 3pm. I would like to have a group of at least 20 people(wives, kids, or friends), and they can handle groups to 40. If more would like to go, they will do multiple groups. I have to set up a date 2 - 3 weeks prior to the tour. Sorry Levi...The only one who gets anything for free is the one who sets up the tour. They get a free 32' Tiara open I am not sure if they give out things for free or not. Maybe a brochure. I can not guarantee which day of the week it will happen on. Fridays are out. I can suggest a day of the week to them. Whether or not they can schedule on that day is another story. If everyone wants, we could all meet for breakfast @ 8am - 8:30am and then do a 10am tour. Reply to this thread if you would like to participate and how many you would like to bring with you.

This is the chat before the blast. We will be discussing the Brown Blast tonight in the chat room. I am anxious for the blast, just need a break in the weather.

I always finished the cleaning job with some "Simply Green" cleaner.

Today would have been a good day off and be on the lake. I am suppose to have tomorrow off and go fishing with adjusted3(Mark). We are playing it by ear right now. Everything depends on the weather.

I always used a mixture of vinegar and water to clean the lime from my outboard and boat.

I am seeing the winds as being out of the South on Saturday. Its not my tournament, but can we hold off on rescheduling the tourney until Thursday evening?

Capt. Ed is a member here.

I am going to contact S-2 Yachts(Tiara/Pursuit) in Holland, MI tomorrow to see if I can set up a group tour. This would be a week day trip. Anyone interested in going?

I would like to know how many gallons of fuel/gas everyone went through in their boat last year. Please include the size of the boat and how big the motor(s) are. Also include the number of times the boat was used if possible.

Would you buy a boat that has been in salt water? Why would you, or wouldn't you buy it?

Everyone that is married has probably been down this road before. The husband wants something and the wife says something else will do. We are paying on two houses and are not in a postion to purchase a boat. However, I have already started kicking around the idea. Lets face it...every man needs a boat Anyways, now comes the part of what I want and what she says will do. It is always this way. Man wants big and powerful and women says we can get something that will get us by. Here is a couple of pictures everyone can relate to. I want a BIG boat I think my wife has this envisioned for me I have already come up with a million and one reasons on why I need one this big. I am a male, and I know how to push the buttons I know I will never end up with a boat like this, but its still fun to push the buttons It would take all of the fun out of it if every time I wanted something, she gave in BTW...I have a GREAT wife!

This sounds too familiar. What I want and and what she thinks I need. Welcome to the site Dan. Thanks for taking the time and doing an intro. It only takes one day on the big lake with success and you are hooked for life. Make the haul over to Ludington/Manistee and give it a try in August. The point is very crowded on the weekends. Make it a week day trip, and it will be very enjoyable We look foreward to having you around.

What is the make of your boat you are looking to put them on?

Just an update for everyone. Double has 3 referrals and Steve Arend has 1.

I was wondering if everyone was suppose to meet there before the tourney. It was clarified to me in the chat room last night on how it works. I am bringing 8 copies of "Keating on Kings" to the tourney. These are the books I am selling on the site. The price is $24.95 per book. If anyone would like a copy of the book, hit me up at the weigh in.

Nice box of fish Terry. Will you be at the brown blast?

Is this the time everyone should be at the lodge by?

Kind of hard to shoot with the trigger safety cable???

All I saw on the ropes, buckets and laying on the pier were coho.

Nice Job Steve. Wish I could have make it.

12lb spring king...Nice fish! Making me hungry. Nice job Rick & Larry, Bev & Jim!

I took the boys for a car ride down to St. Joseph today. We walked out on the pier to see how they were doing. I saw one group of guys(3) that had 6 Coho, and all together we saw 12 fish that had been caught. All of the fish came on skein and spawn on the bottom.
