Just about time to roll out for tomorrow. Look mom, guess what followed me home. Gamewardens of Vietnam PBR out for a fuel run. Boat and truck, well over 300. Ouch.

They are some thirsty fuel-suckers. Your fuel bill is just a "drop-in-the-bucket".


I'd love to see pics of your launching/retrieving that fish at the boat ramp. I'll be it draws a crowd too!

We have an on the water event at the Des Moines, WA marina, just south of Seattle on July 20-21. This will be a shakedown cruise of the newly rebuilt engine. You can become an associate member and you get a ride as part of your membership. Plus you get to meet some really neat guys that were there and did that. Always room for volunteers at the Rat's Nest. Lots of maintenance on these beasts and most of us are not 20 anymore. One of our goals at least with the equipment is to make it a little better each time it goes out. Example, our radar doesn't work and our radios are not properly hooked up. So any of you old radar techs? One of the guys is working on the radar and he was thinking if he fires it up, Portland Int. Airport may get a little upset, as he lives fairly close.
