Would be great to finally meet up! Our crew has slimmed down a LOT since the 2001 wedding. We had 11 adults and 1 child for the wedding. Now our typical trips are 4 to 6 people.
Getting to Cha is a commitment, no doubt. We cruise around 2300 RPM, and it takes about 8 hrs.. if we push the boat to 2700 RPM, we can cut an hour off, but man does that suck up the gas. We get underway by 7, have breakfast as we head down, then send our 2nd boat out to fish and then scout out our spot. We’re typically anchored by 3. Having 10 days on the lake helps make the long trip easier, but we were committed to the SJ even when we had 18 owners and only a week.
