West Coast Gold Beach Rally - July 2013
Author: BigRabbitMan (Show all albums)

This album covers a little bit of the fun we had at the Gold Beach, OR rally. We had 8 FMC coaches plus three more owners whose coaches were not able to travel at this time. This rally was unusual in that we had a major Saturday activity with a jet boat ride up the Roque River. It was enjoyed by all that could make it. The photos are courtesy of Stephen Heinrichs, Nuntawan Camrye, and Larry Enoksen.

Here we are traveling along at the "average speed" per Kevin, but note that carlton has also given up on his cap and the hair blowing in the wind.

... and then we make a fast turn and this is what happens! Particularly to those in the last 3-4 rows of seats - including the camera man, Stephen Heinrichs. Some nice photos were missed as I was attempting to dry off or protect my camera.

Here is a deer standing in the shade of the tree.

The next several shots are of the canyon that we were passing through. This section of the river and its uniqueness was instramental to stopping the potential construction of a dam and getting the Wild and Scenic designation for this river.

Taking pictures of the canyon and river.

Continuing downriver all is calm but the back 4 rows feel that the front rows didn't get as wet as the back rows and plead with Kevin to do something about it.


After double confirming the back rows opinion and desire to have it corrected and over the protest of the front rows, Kevin gives the boat full throttle and spins in a circle to create a strong boat wake that he can ...

... quickly slam the bow of the boat into while hitting reverse to bring the bow down and then, when the wall of water is splashed high in the air (higher than this picture as I protected the camera) hitting the throttle again to go under the wall of water before it came down! That was a great move Kevin! He said it was only the second time he was able to do it successfully. Yes, the front rows got VERY wet.

Joe Camrye enjoys getting wet!

Back to the river and nature! Look close and you will see the river otter on the left with her kit (young otter) on the right almost on the mother's back.
