Holla if ya ride Norris. I've heard nothing but good things from my fishin buddy's about it
I hear yeah on the no salt, my screen name is rdfish1. I am a lifelong Floridian and saltwater fisherman. And, as a fisherman, I used to dislike pwc's until I bought one 2 months ago. Sport has been great fun and met a number of terrific people. Wish I had more to time to enjoy the social nature of the lake George meet and greet but didn't work this trip.
Anyway, regarding my comment on a great chain of lakes, I will give you a sneak peak. The lakes are known as the butler chain and it is a series or 7-8 different lakes that are pristine in terms of water quality and natural beauty. You can tour the chain for hours upon hours, plus, there is a great watering hole, party place called bird island. Great spot for having lunch, a swim and a beer. Lots of interesting people and music. Another interesting feature of the lake is, you will see some of the biggest mansions you have ever seen. These homes are owned by people like Shaquille O'neill, Tiger woods, mark O'Meara, former home of Payne Stuart, nba star Dwight Howard, former home of Walt Disney worlds Don Disney, Kaka of Orlando city soccer star, and David siegel's 88,000 square foot mansion, a home built in spite of his ex wife who was awarded their former 44,000 SF home on this same lake. He decided to build a home twice as large to piss her off. This home is also featured Ina documentary called "queen of Versailles". Many other nfl,pga, nfl and other celebrities live here.
Anyway, I live here and get to ride the lake whenever I want but it might be an interesting ride for a group meeting, plus, lots of inexpensive hotels in the area. This isn't the St. John's, but a great chain of lakes to visit with a terrific boat ramp.

Well for a bunch of seadoo freaks I met on the internet yall are all alright. It was great to see you all again that I met this spring and great to put faces with screen names of the people I just met. Im proud of the fact that this group of people can go raise hell for 3 days straight and I never saw anybody do anything that would put you in dumb ass on the water category [emoji106]. We all wont be able to make every single trip but I will ride with this group of people any chance I get. I had an absolute blast and got to ride some wicked skis. Cant wait for the next one
Enjoy the fotos

As far as the Lake of the ozarks/westside rager....were thinking 2018. Next year Jess will need time to get everything setup for a great get together.
Now...The AJC (Adirondack jetski club) is putting on a John Dady Memorial weekend the 3rd weekend in June in NY. This will be the jetski get together of the year IMO. They will likely have 3 skis raffled off if not more, and EVERY company in the biz is on jumping on board. (Westside included)
For those that dont know, John was the founder of Blowsion. He died of some heart complications and all proceeds are being donated to the fund setup for his kids.
My vote would be to bring a STRONG Seadoo showing up there in 2017. Maybe even put together a Seadoo to raffle off. Then in 2018, super all out national raging freeride in LOTO!!!

I had a wonderful time with everyone and I'm looking forward to the next.
Despite the cockroaches and spiders at my place I was happy with the dock setup, worked out very well for the group I think.
I think i'll be planning another trip or two in the future to explore more of the St Johns, I really liked it.
