Re: Pilar does the TUNA! tail slap at his desk
Pilar......only say yes if you want the ride of your life. I went after halibut with Kujo...70 miles of pure fun. If you ride in the back, I would suggest wearing hearing protection (seriously). Those motors of his will leave your ears ringing like a day of shooting without earplugs.

Re: Pilar does the TUNA! tail slap at his desk
If you don't mind a wet, rough ride by all means do it. I went for the tuna trip. And ear plugs are a great idea. Kujo will show you how much of a beating his equipment can handle, which is considerable. The exposure suits are a good thing to try out too, first time for me, really cuts the cold. One of our crew couldn't hack it and we spent a good part of the day taking him back in to shore.

Re: Pilar does the TUNA! tail slap at his desk
John,
It was truly the best day of my ocean career! I got my first Tuna, had a blast, and went across the bar 20 feet in the air. What an absolute rush! You WILL have a great time. Kujo, DolphinLyn , and the Black Rockit Rock! My nephew caught his first salmon that day as well.

Re: Pilar does the TUNA! tail slap at his desk
Absolutely go, John, but do wear earplugs...even if you don't sit in back...
Thought you were going out for swordfish???

Go for it but you will need the ear plugs and a few Motrin after the beating that Black Rocket will give ya. Also if you ride in the back remember to bend at the knee's when you hear the engine hit the rev limiter :shocked:

Re: Pilar does the TUNA! tail slap at his desk
Absolutely, an awesome ride, kinda like fishing out of an Indy car. You get the full effect, wind, water and tuna.

Re: Pilar does the TUNA! tail slap at his desk
I love this stuff and my heart is racing. Maybe this will beat broaching the 688 class boat I am a plankowner on. That has been the prime standard of boat rides for about 20 years now.

I can see it now...... He'll like that frog from the Warner Brother's cartoon... Hello ma honey, hello ma baby, hello ma rag time gallllllll......
Then.....
Everybody do the Michigan ragggggg........Perhaps followed by a tap solo?
Come on BlueBeast. A guy's gotta have fun.
I know John doesn't really seem like the show tune type of guy, but that's what makes it so funny!

I think the coffee is kickin' in. My eye is starting to twich. The Berserker is knocking on the office door.
He said...
The killer awoke before dawn,
He put his boots on,
He took a face form the ancient gallery and he.......
WALKED ON DOWN THE HALL!
I thought I heard him mutter something about being the Lizard King and that he could do anything.........

Re: Pilar does the TUNA! tail slap at his desk
Troy, when am I going to get you on my boat?
I know it's broke but we could drink a beer or three and make motor sounds. Might even turn on the radar and slow down traffic just for laughs.
Let me know...

Re: Pilar does the TUNA! tail slap at his desk
John,
Yes you can and yes you will.
Go out there and get 'em Tiger!
And he came to a door,
And he looked inside....
That's when Ragnar saw Ray (Mr. Fisherman) and said.....
Hey! Sure man. I'll gladly pound down a rootbeer or two if we can make motor boat sounds like we were two kids in the tub. It only freaks me out when the big brown shark enters the picture. :shocked:
Soon, we'll be having TA Meetings again (I hope).
Well now that we know eachother a little bit BETTER....
WHY DON'T YOU COME OVER HERE AND.....
MAKE ME FEEL ALRIGHT!
Gorrrrrrrrrrlia, G-L-O-R-I-A! Glorrrrrrrrrrrrrria! G-L-O-R-I-A! Glorrrrrrrrrrrrrria! G-L-O-R-I-A! Glorrrrrrrrrrrrrria!
Your Pappa's at work,
Your Momma's out shoppinnnnnnnnnn' around.
Ray, I'm your huckleberry! Say when.
Ragnar

A Must Do....put on your seat belt, tighten your hat and hang on! Been out half dozen times with KUJO "Rocket Man" and loved it every time!

Re: Pilar does the TUNA! tail slap at his desk
Nevermind, I am now OOC (out of commission) with a blown achilles tendon while I attempted to do a little police work.
Trip cancelled due to failure of the police to protect my property or prosecute those that would steal it.
