Sounds like you talked to Chris lol. There usually is no racing or anything going on during this event, just a pleasure ride from gravel bar to gravel bar. Its like a river boat show. Some boats there will absolutely blow your mind with the paint jobs, etc. Of course theres always the few that show off and stuff but its all fun. Always meet a lot of new people. I'm putting in at belle-chute access and staying at the Scenic 63 motel and Rv campground in my camper thats just a few miles away. Gonna be a great time, hundreds of boats. last year i only seen 1 water patrol so that made the tension little to none when it came to letting loose and having a good time. If any of ya's see my boat be sure to come by and say hello ! I'll be running with a polished legend ss, a blue legend ss, and a red and checkered Gator tunnel hull. The first gravel bar i think is undecided as of now. I'm not sure. They were talking about calling the gravel bars right before the run because of the river conditions. If i find out i'll be sure to post it and where the rest of the gravel bars are. Mainly all you need to do is find the first gravel bar, which i will let ya's know, the rest are easy to spot on up the river with a few miles in between. and take your time. you got all day to get your poker hands. meet n greet!bulldog said:I just talked to a guy at Troutt and he said they are expecting a huge turnout and my boat "better be fast or get the hell out of the way". I laughed and asked if 32 was fast enough and he choked on something. I'm trying to get there for it. If I make it, I'll be puting in at Indian Ford Access just east of Vienna, MO. 2 hour drive from my door step. Sounds like a pretty good time for sure.
