My big mutface and I are hoping for the best! They become another in the family and mean so much to us!

One of my ski partners has A 99 SS LXI Carburetor engine 310 HP. The injected version was also available I thought 335 HP. but not sure. Its on the SV23 hull and is a very nice ski. And not a bad footer boat but then I have footed but am not A footer guy so I think its a good setup for both. The last good SS LXI for skiing was the 04. I think the DD came out mid season 99.

We have reached an agreement for the perches of the four lake's dams and are going to start filling our lake next week at this point!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thirteen years of work for many people may be coming to a close. Looking at the agreement it will be up to five years to complete all the work to bring the dam's up to 100% compliant. and move all the license but A very bright light at the end of this tunnel!

We think the talks for the sail of all four dams are going well and hope to be close to signing papers soon. We have been telling people we have hope of a full lake around Memorial day. All is still up to a lot happening and of course some rain to refill Wixom lake. Can't just fill the lake as the down river must maintain flow. And no one truly trust the dam's owner. We had a setback of one month from the hope of May. We go to court on the 3ed in Midland to try for the Michigan lake level order. But even that is not final as far as refilling. Two of the guy's on the negotiating team have put docks in. Makes one think things are good!

Its been a cold windy wet spring in Mich. But I have a bigger issue, still not enough water in our lake to boat. This will be the worst year for us in 23 years.

So my very basic understanding of T Cell therapy could be what you are doing. It is boosting the immune system to Target a specific cancer. It sounds as things are coming along for you. It sounds like you care is good. I will say I was told the University of Michigan has one of the best Melanoma research clinics in the USA. I was asked to go down to U of M as soon as I was diagnosed. Its not a long trip for me and my brother is just a shot drive from the hospital so A no brainier for me.

I had to push my dermatologist to take a 2ed and 3ed look at this last area. I went in for another growth just behind the melanoma area. I don't know what to think about this but my area is so short of dermatologist if I did not have mine its a two hour drive to get into another. If you are in dough push! I had the final removal and repair to my face last Thursday. Going back for stitches removal this Thursday. The Doc's working on me said they are having very good results with T Cell on melanoma. As said I don't know Matt but my thoughts and prayers are with you. Have the Doc's used or working with T Cell treatment for you. Just a question I would not suggest it other then interested on other treatments?

2019 and time to keep this going. I just finished round two for melanoma. After being clear since 2012 I had a area on my cheek looked at. Late March the biopsy came back positive so for me back to Ann Arbor. Yesterday I had my last of three surgery's. I got it very early again and just want all to have a good look at things that are new and not normal. Be safe my fellow sun lovers.

I got to surf, all though what I did may not be called surfing by a true surfer and snow ski in one day. Surfing early am and over to Mt. Hood for a ski that afternoon. The surfing was cold and ugly but I made up for that at the mountain!

Been thinking of getting a fat bike since last fall. Actually looked at a specialized Fat Boy yesterday. Getting close to pulling the trigger. I will be riding dirt ,sand roads and trails. Also packing significant photo gear. And just off road riding. I want to get out of the house for workouts. living on a public lake riding it in winter would be fun. And I would not be the first one on the lake ice! The dog is getting old and does not want to hike much anymore.

I just can't see cooling any part of a turbo package is an issue with all the cooling available. My need to do some engineering to use it but just not a stopper.

It takes power to drive a supercharger. The more boost the more power. But some nice superchargers out now. Its all about boost / air and fuel, Don't think illusion is true they are both very efficient at making a bunch of power!

Can't help other then say if I looked for a replacement tug form my boat the firs two boats I would be looking for are the C.P. and CC 196 But at almost 68 I may never need to replace my tug. But then Need is a odd word!

As an old Drag racer its a common saying Air and Fuel = HP

The Ford Ecos are not an automotive engine with a Turbo. They are engines from the ground up built to have turbos. Some very unique oiling for both cooling and longevity. They are twin turbos and have no noticeable lag. Power comes on from the moment you drop the hammer. I have a 2.0L and A 3.5L and drive A 3.7 all of them have been amazing. My ski partner just sold a F-150 3.5 with 180,000 miles only issue was a bad injector. That was a work truck that pulled some heavy trailers. I have often said it's a engine that should be looked at for our tugs. In the past the 3.5L in the F-150 did outrun the 5.0 not much but did. The new 7.3L I am quit sure is a cast iron block but a very narrow package.

Dammer try a gopro head band for the spotter.

Fix them well small and shallow.

Just getting out in cold air/water with my dry suit is wort it. It does not slow me down but then I am not even on the measuring stick. But it does sometimes make me feel like I have a protective crash suit.

Our lake back! On a public lake that made power but the owner of the dams has blown off FERC. for more the 13 years as far as needing updates. So now they pulled his license and with that the lake has no depth required. He has dropped the lake 8' and now we have stumps. A lot of stumps! So now we are looking at a friendly takeover. But our lake makes the money to keep three other lakes going that he owns. So looking at four lakes. Saw this coming for years and been working on it but no one pays much attention till the water goes down and the they all want it back. Working on a court ordered lake level order now and with some luck will have it in place for spring! Without the tax base on the lakes our county will go bankrupt. Just a little stocking stuffier!

Even looks better in the boat!

Have a look at Lincoln with Eco or Ford Full size Lincoln Navigator Ford Expedition. Ether come in a std or extended version. They pull like a diesel and if you have not tried one you should!

Not a good year for me and my crew. Bad weather, Another small problem the dam owner pulled the plug on our lake. Had to pull the boat early. And a surgery I have been putting off.

I could use some help but don't want to hijack this. I am looking at A fat tire bike and have very little experience with any of the new bikes today. I am looking at Motobecane 2019 Sturgis NX12 EAGLE Bullet (Bikes Direct). I am riding more flat sand and snow in winter. I want to bike with a backpack with photography gear. Any thoughts?

My wife has never pulled me bad! I just add little things she could do better maybe one at a time. After all she would not be pulling me if any of my ski bud was around!
