    Best SF Delta Spots to Hang Out

    I forgot about the Outrigger and the karaoke bar. It is a pretty fun spot on a Sunday afternoon. There is one waitress that should be on American Idol. Another good spot along those lines is the Riverboat on the Mokelume. They have a live band on Sunday and some very good beers on tap...

    Best SF Delta Spots to Hang Out

    We finally made the trip up to the meadows today for a lunch cruise. It is a very enjoyable spot for hanging out without any boat traffic to bounce you around. I'm adding it to my list of good spots to chill out. List so far: - Big berm by Westgage landing - Mildred Island - Potato Slough...

    Labor Day W.E. on the Delta

    Hi Guys, we cruised through the cove today and saw a LOT of boats in there. We didn't stop as it was a little packed and we weren't getting friendly looks. I hope you all had a great time. We sure did.

    Labor Day W.E. on the Delta

    I know that spot well. We'll be by in the afternoon to say hi and join you in a cool one. We don't have A/C, but the bimini will be up!

    Labor Day W.E. on the Delta

    We plan to be out on the Mokelumne on Saturday with a trip to Guisti's in the evening. We'll try and find you sometime in the afternoon. Based on today's weather, it should be a glorious weekend.

    Labor Day W.E. on the Delta

    We will be out at least 1 day that weekend and would like to connect with fellow SR owners. We are on on Bethel Island at Sugar Barge marina, but can pretty much be anywhere in the delta baring extreme weather. I am tentively planning a dinner cruise one night to Guisti's in Walnut Grove...

    Cushion Hitches

    I finally got a chance to tow my boat with the new Schuck cushion hitch and I have to say it was well worth the price. All the stop/start clunking is completely gone and the overall ride is much improved. I would give this a bit thumbs up for anyone with towing symptoms described above.

    Stupid Anchoring Question

    I'm more of a visual person, so for me to better understand this thread can you please post pictures of "golden brown woman's (*)(*) ". Thanks,

    Trailer Spare

    Thanks for the feedback. I guess it's not such a great idea afterall. I see that Overtons has the rim/tire comb I need. I think I'll go that route.

    Trailer Spare

    1st, let me say this isn't really about my frugal nature. It is more of a convenience thing. I currently do not have a spare tire on my trailer mostly because we really don’t tow our boat anywhere. Our marina does all the launching and it’s about 500 yards from the dry storage to the launch...

    Cushion Hitches

    NorCal, you described my exactly the jolt I get when starting starting up from a stop if I'm not careful. This is really noticable on uneven pavement. It's hard to say if this is all related to my tow vehicle since I've overhauled the entire trailer (actuator, brakes, bearing, etc.) and switch...

    Cushion Hitches

    Hey Jermey, thanks for the reply. It does seem like my rig is banging around quite a bit on rough roads. I'm towing with a 2006 Toyota Tundra double cab 4wd. I haven't weighed it, but I'm guessing boat/trailer/extras are about 5,000#s. That should be well within the towing capacity of my...

    Cushion Hitches

    I saw an ad in Trailer Boats for Schuck Cushion Hitches, "Engineered to absorb minor or major tongue thrust shocks". The basic design is polyurethane wrapping between the ball mount and the frame insert into the receiver. It seems like a pretty good idea, but wanted to check for some 'real...

    Swimplatforms.com

    Unfortunately, my story with Swimplatforms.com is not so good. I wanted to get a 4' 1/2 round platform like what is on the older 210 sundecks. In October 2007, I talked to Scott and he told me that they could build it, they just needed to find a boat like mine to measure. That sounded fine to...

    Where's All the Delta Boaters?

    Good to hear from other delta boaters. We have ours in dry storage at Sugar Barge marina http://www.sugarbarge.com/ on Bethel Island. Just waiting out the rain and looking forward to another great summer. Lots of great boating, exploring and dining in the delta.
