We got down here to Bullshoals on Sunday evening and put the Candy Corn 20V in the Water Sunday and spent a couple of hours on the water. We have gotten some comments re: the Tangerine Yellow and White colors.
The lake is still up about 40 ft. and has caused us to get ourselves going the wrong way a couple of times because all landmarks and point number signs are under water. Right now the water is three feet or so from the spill-well. Most of the rock bluffs and island just are not visible.
Tomorrow we start skiing and other thinks we can try. We have a wakeboard with us and will try that and fill the time each day playing behind the boat and relaxing. Gas is only $4.30 a gallon on the water and $3.79 in town so even though expensive not a total killer since we are only burning 6.5 gph.
Like others have said about the 2007 Bimini's they sure are a pain to put up the first time. Thank goodness Matt, ragboy and chpthrill sent me info on how it went up. Without the pics and info from the download area the e-series Bimini would have been impossible.
The boat either accelerates and runs great or it starts to accelerate from a hole shot and then as the load increases it starts backfiring like heck until I throttle back. In two days It has happened three times and has scared the heck out of my wife. I have no idea why it is doing this but will take it in for warranty work next week for some general new boat stuff.
The Lake is virtually empty. It is a large lake but people are not boarding surfing or skiing. Of the few boats we saw some were anchored to the shoreline and swimming in the 83 degree water and 84 degree air temp.
Normally we we drive down here we will see boats heading down and back to Chicago. This year none.
The Wetsounds on the tower are great. When heading back in Sunday they heard me when I was a 1/2 mile away.
I know no pics. We will take some today and post so hit me with the banner.
