Hey all,

Just bought a new tritoon and am looking forward to benefiting from the awesome wisdom of this group. Never owned one, but finally decided to go for it. I've got 2 married kids, 7 grandsons and a son at a local college who brings his friends quite frequently, so the rental scene was getting old and I needed to be able to take them all out and give them an awesome ride. Looking forward to learning everything there is to know about living the 'toon' life!

Yeah, this is our lake. Beautiful.

Gotta get it back out on the water though! Looking forward to it. All the kids / grands will be there soon, so we'll be out, rain or shine.

I am between "Strake" and "mcbrains" at Gangplank Pointe condos.
I agree with Bill....maybe we can meet at Mango's one weekend.

Sounds good to me..... count me in.

We just left SML today after 2 1/2 weeks to go back to our Gettysburg home .... dental appointments, etc.... we'll be at the lake on July 2 for about another 2 week stay !!! Hope the weather gets straightened back out.... storms nearly daily for the past 2 weeks, but they were predictable and later in the afternoons. Didn't stop us for getting out nearly everyday on the boat.
