Well I'm Back, after a break from this sight I was very supprised to get an E-mail from Mark on the Lifes Good.
Had a great meet and greet in Gig Harbor that renewed my faith that boaters are great people and yes Mark the world is a small place. We will do it again soon. If others wish to touch base please drop a line.

I'm still working on my picture issue bang head
The sight has changed some.

Thanks Kris!  We had a blast with you guys on Friday evening.  Your 250 is a great looking boat and WOW you got that black hull to POP like a mirror!  Excellent work!   thumbsup

So if any local Rinker owners want to join us on the 3rd and 4th of July we will be in Poulsbo and then Quarter Master Harbor "Vashion" on the 4th.  Rafting welcome. watching

Here's the wax steps. In the first step use a wool pad. Then a foam pad for the next 2 steps.

Try again.
In step one use the heavy cut with wool pad, it might take 3or4 times to get it ware you want it. don't mind the light swirl haze it will come out in step #2

We are taking "Aquaholic" to Lake Roosevelt tomorrow A.M. Plan to stay through Sunday.  We will be launching at Kellers Ferry.  Have not decided if we will be in the marina at night or on the hook someplace.  I'll post some pics.

If you check at the National Park Service site for Lake R, there is a link to check the water level.  Here is the link.

Got home this afternoon.  Our first overnighter at Lake R. was good.  We actually stayed in the Marina at Keller Ferry at night.   Now that we know what's up, we will be better prepared to do some beach camping next time out.   The fishing was pretty good for smallmouth bass.   

The lake level is pretty good.  Water temp. was 74 to 76.     Our next time out will be at Chelan.  What can I say, I already paid for a dock pass and launch & parking at Mill Bay for the season.   

Hope you have a nice outing on the 15th.

Heading out Friday at noon to go up Lake Chelan with friends.  Probably end up at Graham Harbor Friday night, and head farther up on Sat. AM, perhaps to Moore Point, depending on wind and water conditions. 
The following Saturday, our daughter is going with us for four days, think I'll try to talk her into Roosevelt for that trip.

Anyone else heading our direction?
