I went to the south end of Lake Tarpon today just to let the skis run the fogging oil out of them! I was so tempted to go out on the lake but didnt........I think it would be a better Idea to go out there with someone else for safety reasons!!!

You'll just have to watch out for the big alligators. :biggrin:

Are you just visiting the area or are you here to stay?

you don't have to have straps or holds. I don't use either on my ski when surf riding/slashing.

surf isn't that hard when you're at an inlet like dunedin causeway

I remember your avatar........welcome to the Gulf and don't forget to flush after you use it :biggthumpup:

Yeah..........not happy about flushing the ski..... :-(

I did coat my engine really well with Fluid Film

I only live like 8 miles from Tarpon so I may just swing past there after I ride salt!!

Does anyone on here or PWCToday.com LIVE ON Lake Tarpon?????

It would be cool to have a dock or something to stop and chill on once in a while........just laying in the water isnt going to work for me!!

Goodbye, cold weather. Hello, 15 foot alligators.

Its been a goal of mine for like 6 years.....either Tampa FL or Scottsdale AZ.........I need the ocean!

I got awesome work experience in WI and am seeing many jobs I like in The tampa area!...........large Corporations also love the work ethic from the Midwesterners!
