This one is pretty sweet, esp if we can use the "beach"

We need a local where ever we decide to check out seadoo logistics...Would be pimpin to find a place we can pull up 50-100 doos in front of, a flat enough yard to cart skis to the water, bonfire, etc.

it's great to hear the support. See we can't be throwing 12 to 20 of us(or more?) on mpower's couch haha.

Just looking at the map and it seems kentucky or tenn is about a central point. How do you guys feel about cumberland or something around the nashville area? I'm happy to be further south but willing to drive and don't want to put it out of reach for northern members.

lake cumberland is an awesome place, we can even camp right on the water, i go there every year and i would love to be apart of this, i would have at min 4 skis there.
 
Someone needs to step up and be the leader of this. We will never decide a date and place where it works for all of us, someone just needs to decide. I like the fact that lake of the Ozarks is big, and has a ton of rental spots, but TN sounds cool too. Weather is obviously a factor depending on date.
 
I nominate [MENTION=51824]Matt Braley[/MENTION] for leader since he started the thread.

I dont know anything about ozarks, i have been to both in TN, both are really big at points and you also get the river riding part to there, clear water and nice and deep, rental places are all over, I would pick norris lake just for the fact that there are lots of docks where every you stay, unlike lake cumberland you have to pull your skis every night and put back in....

Can someone tell me this tho, are you thinking this summer still or are we going to do this first thing after winter?

My vote is 1st thing after winter this way we can give people time to set it all up.

by the way [MENTION=41828]Minnetonka4me[/MENTION] you should have the package saturday, went out today
 
I think we should try to shove a nice little event in at the end of this year. I hate all the "summer is over" talk. I've been working too much and what to get some good riding in at a place I've never seen. If it goes well we can do something bigger or at least different next year.

I like the sound of the Ozarks but also the TN area lakes sound nice also. Lets through another possibility or two in the race before we chop it down. Like Minne said it would be nice to have a resident member who can lay eyeballs on the situation.
 
Well, water temp down here is about 81f right now, still warm enough to ride. West Point lake has a nice campground with good ramps and lots that adjoin the lake, currently warm days and cool nights. My house is a 4 min drive away I would be willing to let anyone come and do any last minute repairs in my shop. It is about an hour south west of Atlanta, Ga.

Ooh Atl is close to me, and has got to be warmer than anything up north. The lakes are starting to cool down here (nc), as is the temperature. GA has got to be better. Is the water clear?

If it was up to me I'd set this up in January so all us Northerners can have something to look forward to in the winter. I would assume that relegates us to a Florida meet though.


So...are we trying to put together a yearly meet up or just an impromptu get together?
 
If we do something this year i will have to pass, just to much going on and thats a really far drive lol, TN is not going to be that nice in about 2 to 3 weeks, my vote is for 1st thing this coming summer in TN, and if anyone wants to put something together for that let me know. I do hope this all works out

Very clear right now for some reason. So clear I could take you to the place I dropped my multi tool in the lake yesterday and you can see it on the bottom!

You can see it and it's still there? Swim down and get it.

Yea, only in 5 feet of water too. The trick is when I went in after it I stirred up the silt and could see it no longer.

Good idea. Back on topic. What other locations are on the table? I wouldn't mind going further south to stay warm. No wetsuit here. January sees freezing temps and occasional snow, water temps in the 40's. My season usually ends around Halloween.

Planning is not my strong suit but I'm trying. I love all the input. I like the Ga idea for nice weather if you guys are willing to make the drive. I'm looking that area up now.
 
Sounds like we have some decent interest in this, should be awesome!
