Wallisville Ride

June 9, 2012

We had a wonderful time on this ride. The ride and water were perfect.
The beach stops and the time we all spent swimming and socializing was so much fun! It was apparent that so many others felt the same way. We really enjoy how these rides differ from each other.
Thanks to all for another great day on the water with friends!

Morgan City Weekend

July 21-22, 2012

Paul and I just wanted to tell you all what a fun time we had in Morgan City. It was a fun time with a really really great group! From the dinners together, social hours in the evening and riding...it was a great trip. When we started out Saturday morning, no one complained about launching in the rain. That's why the skies cleared up for us!
You were all so so very good natured when Mother Nature(Hydrilla) changed our route a few times! It was kind of exciting to see what the next corner was going to be like. We were still able to enjoy good smooth water, good food and most of all GREAT fun with friends.
