Some beach and first time skiing with this boat. It did a wonderful job in each situation. I even had time to moor it out front and scrub it down this morning.

On July 4th weekend while in Lake Lavon I was stopped by the Collin County marine cops and had a courtesy safety inspection conducted on our boat. Of course we passed but the funny thing was that this past Thursday 7/23 I was stopped again by the same cop at the boat ramp we use in Lake Lavon. Well he pulled up along side and then said "Didn't I check you on July 4th weekend?" I said yep.....what reminded you that you stopped me? He then said "That classic Whaler of yours....". He then smiled and sent me on my way without conducting another courtesy safety inspection. Whalers stand out. Cliff 1966 13' Sport with a 1993 40hp Yamaha 2 Smoker

We were on Lake Texoma for three days,patrol came up along side - I asked, "what can i do for you",he said "we just wanted to have a look at your Whaler" they said "beautiful boat and have a nice day"! and off they went. Good thing i renewed my tags last week. Yesterday on the way back to the marina my throtttle / shift cable went out,we were able to poke along at 10mph and hall out - Thank god it happend on the last day out.Beautiful lake,great fishing,also took the 8'6" longboard for some freeboarding. 5.5 hours back to Austin,yes,it is HOT!

If so, were you on Hwy 75, just north of Dallas around the plano area heading north about 4pm Thursday afternoon? If so....I passed you up on hwy 75 and was hoping that you were a WC member.

Not that you would remember, but I was in a green and tan F-150. Wow, tooooo cool. It was funny to me that I saw you and your boat because I was on my way home to get my boat to do a little fishing at lake Lavon.....about 530pm that day is when I was stopped by the marine cops on the lake.....hence my story. You drove right through my town of Mckinney. Edited by CES on 07/27/09 - 12:54 PM Cliff 1966 13' Sport with a 1993 40hp Yamaha 2 Smoker
