I'll pitch up for some alcohol since I can't buy my own. Triple Sec is $6 a bottle around here, it's 48 proof, and it doesn't tast bad, I'd recommend we buy some of that ----. I'm also down for some jack and coke, just watch out, Thursday night I had a glass of jack and coke, then 2 shots of jack and I slapped a bitch. Who wants to share a tent with me?

We re did all the gauges and hydraulic steering in the boat. It will only go that fast with 1 person and its like way scary to drive it because it feels like its going to flip.
He put a different high 5 prop on this year for a bit better low end, curious to see how well it does.

I went on a road trip that was something like 120 miles round trip earlier in the planning stages of this road trip, my biggest weakness as far as driving distance is staying awake, I'll be bringing lots of energy drinks and ----, maybe I'll just have a can of coffee grounds in the passenger seat and I'll just take a handful whenever I start to get tired. I'll be starting a thread on this trip momentarily.
wakeboarding should be fun to try, I've been kneeboarding, innertubing and skiing, never wake boarding.

Kyle: i did the Olympia, WA to Ft. Collins, CO round trip. Each way took me ~26 hours. the biggest challenge aside from getting tired, was finding gas that was better than 85 octane. I'ts going to cost you at least $300 in gas round trip.
