oldjeep Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Brought it home today. Not most of you guys idea of a ski tug, but a VTX with the diamond hull is a big step up from my Bayliner http://oldjeep.com/images/Malibu/WP_20140405_005.jpg http://oldjeep.com/images/Malibu/WP_20140405_006.jpg http://oldjeep.com/images/Malibu/WP_20140405_008.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller 6balls Posted April 6, 2014 Baller Share Posted April 6, 2014 @oldjeep beautiful. That's the boat I want to hang out on with family and friends in the afternoon on the public lake after I got my buoy sets in the a.m. Lots of non-buoy towed fun can be had there.

oldjeep Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 My first course runs were behind a Mariah i/o. So I'm not real picky;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xrated Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Looking good. And I saw a 68 in the forecast for this week so the ice is losing the fight for sure now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edbrazil Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 A on/off topic, but Ice-Out is a contest back on Lake Winnipesaukee, which is a large lake in NH. Looks like this year will at least fall around the middle of the spectrum, which extends from March 23, 2012 to May 12, 1888. Normally mid-April sometime. Back when skiing at "Ultra Pond" in Springfield, NH, we maybe got to ski early April, but there was one year when Sunapee Harbor on the Lake didn't lose its ice until Memorial Day weekend. For Winnipesaukee ice-out, see: http://www.winnipesaukee.com/index.php?pageid=iceout That contest closed in February. Today is the closing day for my home ski area Gunstock, but not because of lack of snow, just lack of customers. I'm sure that it has been a long-long winter in Northern US for water skiers. Send your thanks to Al Gore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members andjules Posted April 10, 2014 Members Share Posted April 10, 2014 @oldjeep not some folks idea of a ski tug, but I wouldn't pass up a ride. Heck, a VTX with a diamond hull is basically a Response with a couple of fat ladies in the back. One could do worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldjeep Posted April 10, 2014 Author Share Posted April 10, 2014 @andjules - now that is funny. Supposedly you can run a few hundred lbs of ballast in the front tank to take care of the fat lady problem ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
