Instead of a boat model, as has been the precedent for naming other AOTH themes, why don't we look at boat "happenings"?

Here are some ideas:

- We could have the "Year of the Empty Fuel Tank, Resulting in the Excruciatingly Long and Might I add DRY Tow of Shame". Gero should like this one.

- Or we could have the "Year of the Drive or Transmission Failure, Resulting in the Excruciatingly Long and Might I add DRY Tow of Shame".
I celebrated this one twice personally, a few years back, but not the tow part, just the crash landing into the docks supplemental part.

- Or the "Year of I Can't Slow Down Long Enough to Synch up with Somebody Who Knows Where We are Going Like Lunch, Resulting in a Call to Lee's Ford from Somerset Looking for Directions." Many celebrate this one EVERY year, as is tradition.

Good idea? No, not really. We'll stick with the boat theme, and I think everybody is going to like it.... and no it won't be the year of the Pink Powerstroke-powered Baby 14, we promise!

Isn't this the fifth year anniversary of the "Yes I can make it to Lee's Ford on $20.00 worth of fuel in my BB GT 21"?? We haven't done that model yet..

Basically I think that there is a certain inner circle that can only be reached by those that have experienced the AOTH Tow Of Shame.:hny:

Perhaps there should be a special reception for those that have that honor. ALL involved will have to take part in a special toast of Gero's magic liquid.

Im there....Bringing Pauls Bench Seat Hornet...If he will let me...

Cant wait to break it in on all the logs!

On a serious note, with the lake being lowered over the past couple of years for the dam repairs, which are scheduled to wrap up by 12.12, the lake has never been more clear in the spring time.

The year before last, we had SEVEN drive failures and it was not from hitting stuff. I played sweep boat, and even the 16s averaged speeds in the 50s, when I checked my GPS at Lee's Ford.

Then, there was LAST year. The lake came up 18 FEET in ten days due to huge rains. And of course, everything that was sitting up on the banks was in the water for our run. Nothing could be done.

Debris are always a potential issue at Lake Cumberland due to the flood control mission of the lake, but chances are pretty good that the purty Hornet won't see a scratch. We won't show Paul any pics of the Pumpkin running from last year, but that is a whole other conversation....

just make it the black hawk so shea will stop crying

[ToonaFish]

Y'all just don't know what to do with wood...

[roadtripse]

Log or as we call it around these parts, "Driftwood"!

Celene, if you are going to display that thing, then the least you can do is show up with it this year! Been awhile, hasn't it?

Let's just say Gero, you should be happy with this year's theme.

A couple of more days for the announcement....

[ToonaFish]

Too bloody long, indeed. I need a Donzi fix in a bad way, but logistics really stink these days for "me" time... however, if I can find a way, I'll be there!

[Team Jefe]

Do those that do the towing get to toast as well:fiesta:

Next time I tow a classic....it will be on plane
