Well we decided to take the boat out for the first time since our wedding, 2 years ago! So Jamie, Grant, Travie, T.C., Jerry, and I loaded up. Instead of going to our reservoir 5 miles away we decided to go to Don Pedro about 1 hour away. The lake was so low, and next week they will let out 50 more feet of water. We get down and launch the boat and I can't get it to start. I finally get it to start after it fired up the first time at home, go figure. We're headin out. We see that our friends Jay, and Tracy are on their houseboat so we will cruise by and say "Hi" go for a spin and come back and have a beer. Sounds great, doesn't it? Well not so much, we don't even get out of the 5 mile hour zone, and thank god Jerry notices the boat is over heating. That only means 1 thing, the impeller. I can't believe that little part can blow up the engine. So off we go to Jay & Tracy's houseboat and have a beer or 2 or 3 ... and here are the results of our day at the lake, thanks to Jay and Tracy we had a great time! See for yourself:
