CHECKMATE OWNER'S RALLY 2010
- Thread starter lcboater
- Start date
It looks like everyone had a great time and alot of good looking Checkmates! I hope mass amounts of beer was consumed. Congradulations Barry on all your hard work.
I see DrewMan brought Todd D. (my brother's brother in law).
How fast did the white 28' run?
DogHouse, sorry to hear about your engine but it sounds like a good reason to build a 540' w/ big HP!!
Cheers-

We want to say thank-you to everyone that helped organize this event. This was by far the best checkmate event we've ever attended.
It was great to put names and faces with boats. We are already thinking of making another trip in mid August. Kinda feel like we have a little unfinished business.

hey Mark at this point I can only guess but I suspect head gasket
and I hope nothing got hurt or that the damage is minimal, I shut
her down quick as I felt it coming, I was actually just backing out
of the throttle before it quit because it felt like something just wasn't right..
and it wasn't! I'll keep you posted!
SCT, yes, it's big hp time!! I like what I see of the pro charged 'mates..hmm..

It was a blast and we can't wait to do it again!
Sooner the better as far as we're concerned.
We left today a little before 2pm... saw a few members from the Cafe while we were eating breakfast, but never caught them. We got a late start this morning and ended up running up past Burnside then came back for a swim just south of Conley... loaded up on the trailer and headed north.
I found out just how well the Superboat works for towing duty... Brian, I'm thinking of installing a beefier tow ring before the next get together... ya know, just in case
That way it don't take as long to get it back in
It was great hanging out with everone.. ball bustin at its finest on the Friday afternoon raft up. You guys are great..
Sounds like a possible August event is in order for some of that unfinished business.. let me know and we'll try and be there for the fun!
wtf- we hardly took any pics!!!
Got some of Brians boat:

Yep it was tons of fun sitting around and poking at everyone. I am up for the "Unfinished Business Run 2010" Barry, lets start getting things together for it!!!
I did not even get to see Bill's boat run
I did get to talk and eat pizza with him and Monica, Barry, Lori, Nick, and Echo.

We had a great time too & enjoyed meeting all of the other Checkmate owners. This is Liz & Pat (teal green Checkmate) from KY and if we are getting together again in mid-August, may I suggest (or discourage) August 14th -- that is when Lake Cumberland is organizing a world record setting raft-up to get in the Guiness Book of World Records. May be too crowded or be a blast--who knows??
