Hey Northwest guys just wanted to post this flyer I got e-mailed to me today. There's going to be a float party on Lake Sammamish during the NWWSA surf competition this year. Linking the stereos of all the boats. Should be fun. If you don't know about the event alot of pro riders come out for this.
|
Right on! That's about 20 min from my house.
|
liljohn I got the e-mail today too, I'll be there.
|
Pdx will be there.
|
Hmmmmm this is my anniversary. Anyone have any good excuses to help me get away with this?
|
Yeah a trek to Seattle with boat in tow. Action filled day on the lake, take the wife out to dinner afterwards. HERO!
|
I'll see ya all there. Looking forward to it. Going to be a loud loud weekend. -Brian
|
Tyler, like Jeremy said just make it up to her by taking her to the Canlis or something. Just make sure to bring your sports coat. They don't allow Ruffian in that place.
|
this weekend keeps getting better! see ya all there!
|
I'll be there too, Diggs I owe you dinner anyway -- pick somewhere nice for the lady?
|
John - you are right you do still owe me dinner. Hope all is well with your ride. We can settle up on that next time or over some beers.
We have reservations on Friday night at Metropolitan Grill. Is that still the in place for steak? I will look up Canlis. Have not heard of it. She does not know about this trip or anything, so maybe the Friday night deal will win me some brownie points and we can jump on someone's boat on Saturday. I know of a few boats coming up from down here. This event sounds like a blast. We will see.... |

Canlis is the most exclusive restaraunt in Seattle as far as I have heard. It is the only place I know where you have to have a sport coat. I have heard stories about how they use to make people with crappier cars park down the street. That could be all hearsay though. |
Tyler - +1 for Daniels. It's a good place!
|
JAK's in Issaquah - close to the lake with good steak.
|
Why dont we have something like this in so cal?????????????????????? Who wants to start one?
|
El Gaucho is theeeee best place in Seattle for a steak. Amazing food, atmosphere and service. Its great afterwards to go down to the Pampas room to catch some live jazz and drink cocktails. If you really want to make it a night just stay at The Inn at El Gaucho, I've stayed there and the rooms are awesome. For me Daniels, The Met, Ruth Criss and the like just cannot quite compare. http://www.elgaucho.com/elgaucho/
If you like your steaks the same get the Chateaubriand which is carved tableside, do the cesar salad (also prepared tableside) and for desert get the Bananas Foster (again prepared tableside) Another fun one is the flaming lamb skewer. If you want an inexpensive (relatively speaking) bottle of wine the Berringer knights valley is excellent. I had my 30th in the Pampas room, there was some miscommunication on our part about how many guest would be there and that we'd be ordering dinner (we bought a bunch of appetizers). Some of the guests complained so El Gauch comped my bar bill wich surpassed the $500 mark and additionally sent out 5 $200 vouchers for dinner. Their service is the best and if they let you down they make it up to you. my $.02 |
Tyler the Met is really nice, she will love it.

On a side note the burger at Jaks is the Shiz. It is about $10 with fries and add bacon and blue cheese and you got something truely special. I usually get the burger instead of a steak but that might be because I am a cheapskate. Oh yeah, at happy hour(only 4:30 to 5:30) the burger is 4 or 5 bucks and that includes fries. Oh man, I am hungry. Almost nothing better then a Blue Cheese bacon burger cooked medium with some delicious fries and a couple ice cold Manny's. |
Ok....Brett.... You have changed my mind. Many others have confirmed your suggestion and a reservation is switched to Canlis. Thanks for that! We have El Gaucho here in Portland too and it is great ambiance and a great restaurant, I really think there are better steaks out there and I want a new experience. There service and food is amazing though.
Lets switch back to the topic at hand. The "Float Party". Sorry original poster for the hijack. Who knows maybe we will see you out there. |
Now back to your regularly scheduled programming. Be sure to tune into KPUN when you all show up. Details will be available on site.
|
Ha ha. You guys are going to love KPUN up there. It rocks!
Bring those bouncy balls for the tie off too. |
Common Diggs, break it to her easy and lets go!
|
sounds like fun we will try and make it but not sure as we head out for banks lake on the 18th for a week
|
Harold, will you be at Banks on the following weekend? I'll be there the 20th thru the 25th. Staying at Steamboat rock state park. Where are you guys staying? Did I hear right, that Centurion Crew will be there that weekend?
|
+1 for the gauch
|
diggs you should get sandy v to come up
|
Sandy Vag&^na?
|

|
Anthony we will be there the 18th -25th and will be staying at sunbanks.You did hear right some of the crew will be there as well and we plan on gathering daily at steamboat.so far in the line up we have a supreme 226 a bu 247 an elite v an enzo 230+ and of course my falcon feel free to come introduce yourself and join the fun we should be easy to find
|
I'll be at steamboat arriving the 21st. I have a 04 avalanche. Looking forward to meeting everyone.
|
Has anyone been to this before? I'm just curios how many people it draws out to the lake.
|
I went last year, pretty cool local event. More people will be there this year for sure.
|
should probably take some pics this year and post up
|
Ok we went and checked out the tie up spot. Looks good on the back side of the sand bar. It will keep the boats protected and give us a sand bar to hang out on. Now who is bringing the bbq?
|
over by the park?
|
Yeah just to the left of the park where the river dumps in.
|
Hopefully the weather makes a change this is nothing short of horse SCHITT!
|
Extended forcast looked good, but we all know the weather is subject to change by the second around here.
|
If the weather makes a change.... I say we land 25 boats in Bakes marine parking lot and break out the tents tunes and food! -Brian
Hate you coming too? -Brian |

I don't know, what happened?
|
Well if I knew the details I wouldn't have asked lol
I just heard a bunch of people were tied up at the new spot where someone was broadcasting (assumed you said it was kupn). And then something happened and everyone left and tied up together off the tubing and played own music? :whoknows: |
Hmmm didn't hear that. I wasn't there though. kPUN is coming to the Seattle area.

It was great, until some As@$%ole started yelling and cussing at girls and kids because he couldn't rock his two tower speakers and let his chicks dance on his boat to house/techno music. We shoved him off so he could play elsewhere. A few followed him etc. Not a big deal, but when 6-7 boats are tied up and playing the same thing, ya deal with it or ya don't. Nobody will ever agreee on music.
|
Cobra Rob - are you one of the x45's? were you guys the ones the had the accident with the bayliner last week on the upper? Heard it was an x 45 that untied the week before downtown. if so what happened? let me know next time you are out so we can say hello.

Awesome time at the raft party! It was great to put faces with names. We need to do another one with a little less drama.;)
|
Yeah it was a blast for sure and like you said meet people in person. Thanks to those that help put it together.
|
I had a great time. Didn't get a chance to meet everyone so another one would be great.
|
Yeah good times. I have spoken to Ranger Rick and he is willing to come and work security for the next event. What a tool he was!!!
There maybe an event on the Columbia between Portland and Vancouver, WA in two weeks if any of you are interested in coming down this direction. Details to come if it stays together..... |
All times are GMT -7. The time now is 5:26 PM. |
