Yes I live in Memphis and found it on the internet. I happen to have family about an hour and a half from there in Lake Zurich, IL. Drove up picked up the boat, visited with my family including my 95 year old grandmother (who whipped all of our tails in a card game) and drove home in what us in the south would call a blizzard. I cannot say enough good things about the folks at Gordy's. I will be a customer for life.

Very cool, you passed right by me in Antioch. At least you know the boat was meticulously maintained!

Yes the maintenance records are very detailed.akorcovelos wrote: Thu Apr 11, 2019 4:45 pm Very cool, you passed right by me in Antioch. At least you know the boat was meticulously maintained!
My aunt and Uncle live on Lake Zurich, so obviously I knew of that lake but I had know idea how many lakes were around the area or had any knowledge of the whole Fox River chain of lakes. My wife wants to go back to Lake Geneva when its not covered in ice. It really is a beautiful little town.

It is a great little town. And it changes fast come summer time. And bring a credit card with no limit. Nothing is cheap there. Except me.

Welcome from Oklahoma, and what a great intro! I can't begin to imagine getting smashed from the rear by an RV or anything else for that matter. Did you see it coming? Was your family in the truck?
Congratulations on your new boat, and glad to have you here!

Re: New Member from Tennessee
I did not see it coming. My sister and her daughter were with me and no major injuries other than the back of my left arm had some deep cuts and a bruise from the front tire of the RV. As the bruise healed and the deepest parts were still visible it was a very apparent tire tread pattern. My sister was standing next to the boat and escaped without a scratch.Ytmsn wrote: Fri Apr 12, 2019 8:35 am Welcome from Oklahoma, and what a great intro!
