Chux's 2013 Beach Buggy Build

@Acerwin same with us. Last thing we were expecting to hear hahahah

 

Damn that trip looked awesome!! Also looks like the snorkel pre filter was worth it.. Where'd you get it from?

 

Helluva trip. Thanks for sharing pics and vids. Definitely something I want to experience for myself

 

This popped in my head today. An alternative spot to mount my treds other than on the roof. A set of Thule tracks I planned to use for the top of my cap seem to be a perfect fit around the cap side windows

The idea:


Thule tracks:


Mounts:
Soon to come.

 

Def not a bad idea at all.. Only recommendation is a lot of silicon to make sure everything stays water tight and good size fender washers on the inside to make sure nothing rips through the fiberglass.

 

Yea I heard there's bait finally in the water and birds have been seen working. I hear in the next 4 weeks will be the run. The 5th may not be good cuz I'm finalizing leaving my lease at my old rental and not sure what the wife has for the rest of the day, and the 6th I'm going to the Giants/Eagles game. I'm getting the itch. Gonna try to get out a few times at night during the week.

 

That's like an hour from me. I'm gonna fish locally. Just gotta figure out my free time.

 

I kayak fish the bay at night no problem.

I forget you got an ibsp pass? I'll most likely be trolling through there.

 

This thread is dead

 

Been super busy working on my house getting it ready to host a localized wedding for my wife and myself last weekend December 3rd after canceling our destination wedding in Rincon Puerto Rico due to the Zika virus. With so much to do and lack of time I was still able to think about my build direction and grab some mods to help in some winter camping I'm trying to do, and mainly have the truck ready for a honeymoon drive cross country. Stoked on life and that I can breath again after the build up is over in one day. My wife is just as excited for the trip of a lifetime driving from east coast to west coast and seeing everything inbetween. The trip is not officially scheduled yet but holla if you see us driving in the near future..

 

Make sure to come to Washington!

 

Have a great time when you shove off! Wife and I went to Yosemite for our Honeymoon over a decade ago. Was great!

 

You would of been fine going to Puerto Rico. Was there for two weeks back in July. I go there every year. My second home

 

Nice! I've always wanted to do the same but my only issue is the wife hates road trips. This may be a trip I will be doing in about 12 more years when I retire and when my kids are little older and they can join if they want to.

 

Love the build, I'm new on here and gradually got through it over the last couple weeks, I'm watching for more. Congrats on the house (garage), and as for the zica thing, it only puts a 6 month hold on trying to get pregnant from what my doc said. I had to travel to South America for work in August, married in November and we honeymooned in Cancun and they say just wait till May to start trying. Neither one of us ever had any symptoms but we were also religious with bug spray, bug wipes(awesom for carry on) and just careful in general but the doc says should be OK. With that said caution never hurts. Best of luck!

 

I'll see how NW we make it.. I did get snow chains tho

 

Yea I went out to Rincon (where the wedding was gonna be) back in the day on a surf trip for a month, I wouldn't worry if it was just me but gotta consider my wife and 60 guests..

 

Thanx! And yea I agree. Tho I am trying to put a bun in the oven sooner than later, but we decided to postpone/cancel more so considering our 60 guests. We didn't wanna be responsible for anyone have issues or affects from the virus on our account. We felt the odds were probable it would be. But we regrouped and did a local wedding on the beach to make it official and will be planning an actual ceremony 2018 somewhere destination.
