Predictor in the Blizzard

:eyecrazy::eyecrazy::eyecrazy: Holy crap!!! I'm shivering just watching that! Just seeing docks, lifts, and boats in the water with snow and ice all around is crazy enough as it is, up here everything has to come outta the water in the fall, and not go back in till spring!
 
Awesome:bigthumb: did you have any over heating issues? the over heat buzzer would go off all the time on both my old OMC motors in water that cold, my mechanic told me the thermastats don't function properly in ice cold water, my merc seems to like the cold water though.

You know what would be cool is if you had an air boat, you could go right from the snow to the water without stopping! LOL :bigthumb:
 
That was pretty coooool! Litteraly! I just came in from a 12hr day of working outside in the white crap. Watching that made me feel a tad bit better.
 
haha man that is awesome. How about all of this snow? I am from the KC area but i live in Rolla, going to school at Missouri S&T. You guys got it worse than us though. This makes me want to come up and take a spin on the lake!
 
damn...was wondering if you were going to get wet on the drop. Did you grab the dock before you sank? brrrrr...
 
Thanks for supporting our idle hands turned idling motor. No overheating issues although I've notice that when I run it when its freezing out, the water output stays frozen for about the first 10 minutes but then starts working. The wakeboarding runs end (if everything goes right) by whipping into the boat slip where we have a wooden platform lowered a foot into the water. Our feet do get wet but we're wearing neoprene booties under closed toe bindings.
 
gotta get a winter wetsuit if you wanna try tricks huh? I got one for surfing that you can stay in the water a few hours and stay warm when its snowing out, waters all too frozen here to try wakeboarding though
 
well done!! when i was younger (and much stupider) we would go kneeboarding the day the ice went out.
 
You Are the Man

Ozark-King that is totally Insane, Ice on the Mate and Snow on the banks. When I was younger I use to surf & ski in the winter but that makes me feel like a total Wimp. There Ain't no Comparison, I am damm proud of the Northern Mate Riders. You guys are awesome!!! I tip my Magic Hat # 9 to ya'll. :cheers: :surf:
