i had some of my greatest movements, i mean moments on that thread

plugs'n'bugs · 05-31-2002, 08:40 PM

So where is this famous Northriver thread. I've searched the archives and i haven't found a thread with more than 20 replies.

I've read the Northriver Drift Boat thread, is this the one everybody is refering to? because it only has 15-16 replies.

Get Bent · 05-31-2002, 09:35 PM

Looks archived. Here it is.

06-01-2002, 09:40 PM

Seefood Man · 06-02-2002, 05:27 AM

I never towed a North River I did not like :smile:

cannonball · 06-02-2002, 06:31 PM

I've never met a Northriver Owner I Didn't Like, even though Idrive a NWJ.

whitewaterbill · 06-02-2002, 07:42 PM

Cannonball,

Nice reply....Came out of your back yard today and I must say that the water is a little high.

Your NWJ is a very nice boat.........Let em pick on the NR all they want.... NWJ and NR are top of the line as well as some others!!

Boater....Be nice or I will have to pick on the boat that did the 50 yard dash in the 40 yard gym..........JK......

Are we setting up for a boat race here?

Lets see...The lead and the anchors should come out to get ready for a race....What else???? :smile:

Bill

boater · 06-02-2002, 08:33 PM

from ilwaco to westport, stop at westport and have a few beers then race back to ilwaco ?

06-02-2002, 08:59 PM

Boater, What happened to the front of your boat? They must have run out of aluminum during construction :grin:

I love NWJ also, it was a toss up with NR when I bought. Nice boat Cannonball......

Fool

whitewaterbill · 06-02-2002, 09:24 PM

Boater........

I like the way you think! ...I mean about there beer!

Don't you think a white water river would be a better race for a NR and a WR....And the rest of the want to race boat building companies....

We should call out the boat builders to stage a "great" boat race on one of the white water rivers or maybe a series of rivers here.... to have a real show down!

What do ya think???

The Rogue...Where Woolridge began????

Great river......I love to run it!

The Snake......Hell's canyon....Another of my favorites!!

Can you think of some???

I think this would be a great race!!!!

Kind of a put up or shut up?

Would be a great annual event for bragging rights!!!

Lots of fun!!!!

The NASCAR of jet boat racing!!! Stock boats only........ Forget the race built stuff...... The boats they sell us off the floor and classed by size and hp and weight only....

Could we have a class for my tired old 454/212 with soooooo many hours on it????
We could have an old timers bracket for us old guys.......

Or maybe an obsticle course to see who can drive the boat around the hazzards....

What do you think?

HBO and ESPN could cover it!

The mother monster of stock jet boat trials......

I will pitch in to help....How about you!?

Bill

Dan Christopher · 06-02-2002, 09:48 PM

ok race day....1;30 on the clackamas on tuesday.from carver to barton and back.sound fun???? :grin:
but we all have to slow down a little for
mr. dave only 1 boat can go by him every 15 seconds..

this should not be any differant from any other day on the clack.no one will even know we are raceing

cannonball · 06-03-2002, 08:53 AM

Slutgoddess, the boat manufactures are too busy selling and repairing boats. Its hard enough to get them to finish your boat these days, no time for races.

boater · 06-03-2002, 04:31 PM

i like the obsticle course, sounds like fun.

p.s. no more boat bashing from me, ive turned over a new leaf

whitewaterbill · 06-03-2002, 05:09 PM

boater...I knew it....Only a wimp would fall for a lame ass obsticle course...

Real jet boaters drive around rocks....Not plastic....Don't matter what the brand of boat is...

Now that I am old and slow like you.....Can you bring the milk juggs or should I....

:smile:

boater · 06-03-2002, 07:07 PM

you`l have to bring the milk jugs, my doctor said i shouldnt drink much of it at my age...

whitewaterbill · 06-03-2002, 07:21 PM

Now you are talking......Milk is bad for us old folks.......

I can look around in the garbage cans here on Tuesday....And see what the young folkes have thrown out.

With any luck...I can find enough to mark out a great course.

I can see it know......Us old blue hairs racing jet boats around the jug's!!!!!

Seefood Man · 06-04-2002, 06:41 AM

Hey! I talked to Jug's today and she said she wants to go too

Sorry,,,I just had to :smile:

husker · 06-04-2002, 01:14 PM

no thread sparks a debate like the NR thread.....i love it.....but i'll take C&E by a rivet

whitewaterbill · 06-04-2002, 03:41 PM

CATCH AND EAT.....

Why pain???

Oh I get it......You don't have one!

I feel your pain....I really do....

A North river is........

High quality...Very pretty...and a top of the line high performance boat.

There are some others out there that come close.....But just wanted to help you out with an answere....You can take some pain killer or purchase a Northriver....Your choice......

<font size="2" face="verdana,arial,helv">i agree, this is getting old, i have no beef with the "northriver boys" from down south.

Big TULE · 06-04-2002, 09:10 PM

I don't care what kind of boat it is, if it will take me where i want to go it is a good one. Quit arguing over apples and oranges please...

CATCH AND EAT · 06-04-2002, 11:43 PM

What's a North River??????

Can we just please move on????? Please. The pain is aweful.

CATCH AND EAT · 06-05-2002, 07:38 AM

I like my Alumaleak just fine. For $6000 it does every thing I want it to do except go in the ocean. Its a flat bottom 18'er.

I like the North River but I like the price of mine better. When I'm rich someday I'll own a nicer boat. A North River? not sure. :grin:

As for the "PAIN". I was referring to the endless drivel of posters [img]graemlins/stupid.gif[/img]

boater · 06-06-2002, 06:32 PM

try this if you want, use your lycos seach engine and type in "junk sportjets" and see what comes up, p.s. no offence to sportjet owners.. :smile:

whitewaterbill · 06-06-2002, 06:52 PM

boater...boater...boater....... We were all happy to let this one go to sleep......Even us Northriver boys!!!!!

Now you bring back "SPORT JET" ???

You need to go out with me for a day of fishing and serious therapy.........

Call in for your appointment soon!

I love ya man!!!

boater · 06-06-2002, 07:42 PM

i couldnt help it :depressed: , did you try what i said ? lmao

06-06-2002, 08:23 PM

:grin:

:grin:

Couldnt resist :grin:

cannonball · 06-07-2002, 07:18 AM

Where is the gear??? I don't see any poles or even a net. Heck it looks like this guy couldnt even afford the trailer after purchasing a north river!!!!!!! Same preformance and durability for more money, you guys must live in the city!!!!! :tongue:

boater · 06-07-2002, 03:33 PM

jettin-fool, here is a link to a company that makes aluminum polish, sounds like some great stuff if it works. click here

Thanks Boater :smile:
My wife finally squeezed out the kid last week and I now have ample time to polish the boat

It will be awhile before I get out again.
Thanks again

Wizzzzzz....

How do you ever sneek up on a fish with all that bright paint..........Sheeeshhhhhh....

Very pretty though!

The top looks different from most of the ones that come on N.R.

Is it not a Bently's.... or just a style they make that is different from most on that boat?

Boater......

I tried to follow your link on the SJ.....Did not find it......I guess I am not as good as you on the computer.......I just catch more fish! :tongue: :smile:

boater · 06-08-2002, 03:26 PM

bill, never a shortage of fish in this house :smile:

whitewaterbill · 06-08-2002, 04:15 PM

boater.....

We got to go fishing this year.......We have been beating each other up long enough!!

Summers on the Columbia.....Last 1/2 of July or anytime in August.....

You get 2 seats in the SLUTGODDESS!!!

Bring your best stuff and someone that knows how to hook fish for you...and we will have the floatilla of the SLUTGODDESS vs the WOOLEY!

Bragging rights here!

Give me some dates that you can fish in Vancouver and we will set one up........

Sound like fun?????

You can host a Puget sound trip later to get even....... to try to regain respect after the beating you get!

We may need to get Jennie to be the official judge.........

I like it up there also!! You live in a buitiful area of the NW and great fishing ........

OK boater......Time to walk the talk!!!

boater · 06-08-2002, 05:07 PM

sounds good to me, i will be in ilwaco for 8 days starting the 17th of august as far as any other weekend am always open for a fishing trip and somtimes a day or 2 durring the week. if you want silvers i can put you into the best silver fishing you have ever seen, and if you want kings we can go out in the sound in august and get them.
