I'll start this saying I'm a Lund boat guy Yamaha motor guy. I've owned others but I really like that combo. I read about a month ago that Mercury purchased, I believe, Genmar so they could put their motors on Lund, Crestliner, Alumacraft. I inquired on a new boat last week and they offerred only Honda and Mercury on the Lund. They said Mercury wasn't too concerned about Honda but Yamaha wasn't really an option any more on a Lund boat. Now, I'm sure I would be able to get them to somehow put a Yamaha on a Lund, but at what price? Anyone have some more accurate information on this issue. I don't really like being dictated what type of boat/motor combination I have to buy.
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
