No crowds, temps are in the mid 90s, Water in the Mid 70s. And Surf's up!

My daughter grabbed a few clips and put them together. I wish they did a better job of showing the wave, but she thinks it is about the rider and not how I adjust ballast and speed...

It turned cold here quickly. I was out last October but it turned too fast this year.

We are going out this afternoon in Arkansas. Water will be chilly but it's sunny and in the low 70s. I'll be in my long sleeve shorty most likely. I rode last week and didn't even need a heater top, but temps have been dropping quick.

Nice, we were only a little warmer at approx 35 C for the highs, but on the water the dashboard reported temps like yours, but sadly our temps will continue to drop. But it never gets below the 50s (mid teens C) so winterizing is not needed. We run the boat year round.

My problem this year is that between weddings, funerals, crises at work, having the shop running 6 days per week with 2 12 hour shifts, etc, etc, I just have not spent enough time on the water. I need to figure out how to pick the right numbers and win the lottery so I can change my priorities and spend much more time on water.

It's my favorite color combo out of all the boats I've owned. It really does pop on the water.

You've got her slammed pretty good to have the grab handle almost in the water!

Lol Walter, it wasn't bad at all, just the guys on the back of the boat at the time adding another 450lbs to the furthest point of the boat but I'm glad the A24 has more freeboard than the A22 to handle the extra weight. Those Sumo 900's hold more than 900 so that helps lol
