The Flying Wasp..errr Falcon

"I christen thee, the Flying Wasp"...any Caddyshack fans??

After many turns and snickers last year,  we did it...we have the Falcon working.  We can even start it without having to squirt a little gas at the motor to fire up.  We have been cruising and fancy free in our families '74 Malibu Falcon ski boat all summer long - the envy of all all our fellow bay friends.

Now, last year - we attempted but had to withstand the humiliation of being pulled in while friends laughed and did circles around us...they had warned us


Summer 2010 - Being towed in by the Brams, spectators circled around us telling us they warned us.

Summer 2011 - She's a go, look at that happy Captain


The Falcon in all its glory.

Nothing like a good Game Warden check to finish off the 4th of July holiday weekend (we passed)    
Teaching the girls how you are supposed to sit on the Falcon - ALWAYS up front, but your feet should dangle over the side, still too young for that.

Family Day on the Bay - Fourth of July...with toddlers & kids aboard, these were definite signs that our rowdy group is finally settling down a bit.
