Enforcer & Starliner on Lake Hopatcong (NJ)

After the 36hr roadtrip from NJ to MD earlier this weekend, Sim (and his family) managed to get out with us for a few hours on Lake Hopatcong.

Here's a few pics. The Enforcer ran like a dream, and I have to say that I particularly enjoyed the opportunity to drive it for a few minutes -that's a whole lotta boat!! :thumb:

I have some GoPro footage to load also - but it might take a day or two to get around to that.

Rafted up after we met.

The only person looking at the camera here actually lost her first tooth inside the Enforcers cuddy while the kids were playing in there. :D

Mrs Knarloid enjoyed her spin...seen waving here. I might have a bigger boat in my future ;)

Great pics guys. Glad to see you all out haveing fun.
Learning curve. Tiring, demanding weekend with lot's of new things to learn and very little sleep.
I actually sit in this boat a lot more than I ever have.
And for the record- that was the stereo instructions.
As for running with the fenders ????? yeah that was pretty lame.

Glad you guys made it out. I was planning on it yesterday but sitting in the wind most of Saturday for the kids' T ball and softball then a couple more hours Sunday watching soccer I had all the wind I could take. Was supposed to go away next weekend but that got cancelled so maybe I can try again then. Looks like you all had a good time out there. Hopefully we can make it May 11th to watch the guys practice for the OPA race.
 
I know a lot of guys on here love eggbeaters...but combining the sweet sounds of a v8 with through hull exhaust with a sundeck (for ladies to lay out on) and swim platform and that's a boating package that's hard to beat. Congrats on the new boat....I'm not normally a fan of "rasberry" boats, but the contrast with the black might have changed my mind. Sharp!!

I agree, After seeing this boat in person I changed my additude towards
the Rasberry color. Not that a larger amount would tickle my fancy.

John is right, the black balances out it's extreme pinketude but as Kris points out- it's true salvation lies in that musical engine. :rof:
