Mako-ville UPDATE
Powell. NOTE of IMPORTANCE: Guys the costs are running a little HIGH this year. We need to keep the costs down. Between the Quad, and the Honda for the Solo Skiff I spent about $375.00 to keep them in top running condition. OUTBOARD MOTORS: Spent just over $150.00 to have the HONDA 6 serviced, oil changed and filter replaced, lower unit serviced and CARB Jets cleaned out. NEW RULE FOR ALL OUTBOARDS: EVERY DAY END OF DAY. Disconnect fuel hose at FUEL TANK and run engine in fresh water until engine runs out of gas. LAST DAY OF YOUR TRIP: FOLLOW ABOVE AND THEN EMPTY ALL FUEL FROM THE FUEL TANK. Put it in YOUR truck, the white Dodge at the restaurant, which is OUR launch vechicle or burn it in the fire pit, safely please. IF YOU leave it in the tank YOU will PAY for the next CARB rebuild, or YOU will not be welcome back into camp. The OLD fuel is causing all our problems. Dave ALSO recommends using fuel stabalizer. When you leave camp if you used the Gregor or Solo, please leave the fuel tank EMPTY. Both these engines use about 3 gallons for a days fishing. BRING your fuel with you or there is a gas station at GONGAZA. If you can get it please use Premium as it is better for the engines. QUAD: Spent $225.00 to service the Quad. We had electrical and fuel problems. It now has a new Carb, fuel pump, fuel filter, oil filter and oil. The key switch was also replaced along a new fuel cap. YES the quad will do over 50mph. BUT YOU should never need to go faster then 20-25MPH AND around the restaurant PLEASE keep it down to 5MPH NO DUST IN MY FOOD PLEASE.......................... When you leave camp at the end of your trip the Quad needs to be delivered the restaurant with a FULL TANK of FRESH FUEL with stabalizer. GUYS I am now on a fixed income. Dave Sivak will be running mako-ville so PLEASE help him out. I will no longer have the means to keep mako-ville funded, so YOU guys will have to fix, repair, replace, maintain and upkeep the place. Lease is $1600 per YEAR DUE in August. You want to keep it open for YOUR use then you need to step up your game. Before OCTOBER the NEW L16 batteries will be installed, yes another $3000 out of pocket, but you now have a state of the art solar system which will cover the air conditioning soon to be installed in the upstairs bedroom. FISH REPORT: Leather Jackets, Roosterfish, sierra, and Yellowtail were all seen crashing bait from OUR beach. Ray, a local down the beach picked up a 50 lb rooster in his 75 foot long gill net in 5 feet of water. Going to be a good year guys. Weather was AWESOME last week. 94-96 degrees day and 78-82 at ight, winds were all BELOW 10 mph. PARADISE.

It went the way of the Dodo bird. Kai, AKA Baja_Traveler now has it, so it found a good home. Thank you Dave for setting up the Paypal to keep mako-ville running for our friends.

Stopped off at the kayak shop in Lodi on the way up to fish a Vagabundos kokanee tournament. They no longer carry the Stealth line, so now the closest Stealth dealer is in Hawaii... |

Enjoy. Shes a sexy beast. It seemed to me Stealth missed the bullseye in Lodi when you figure its a punch in n out of the surf quick type of yak (ski). HI is still closer than AUS or RSA.
Youll just have to learn your rigging and glassing skills yourself now.

From past report: 54-I finally met the @##$%%^&&* rooster that has woken me many a nights at the camp. 55-Meet his protégé, who tries hard to emulate the teacher, and cannot quite get it. |

Three weeks ago I saw 30-40 pounders swimming, cruzing, and crashing mullet on our beach. Brandon it looks to be another good year, 6 years in a row coming up.
