I've got a new surf wagon, wadaya reckon

Postby jaffa1949 » Wed May 23, 2018 12:43 pm

Since all my new surfing will be on a river until I go to Portugal. "(No fondly gazing from headlands until then) I needed a vehicle to cruise up and down the river, to regular river waves and secret spots around the bend.

Check out the shots of this baby coming home!

Note the auxiliary SUP paddles and stand by shovel.

Also the propellor drive and AWD.

Only needs roof racks

You're going to find secret spots and not tell us where they are...so selfish!

Also, tell us about your music system.
I can't imagine you bombing over river beds without blasting something to scare the wildlife. :lol:

Wagner, the ring cycle.... especially the ride of the Valkries.my mother in law’s theme song! Stone’s paint it black, Sandy Nelson’s Let there be drums. Men at work, I come from the land down under. Doors Riders on the Storm. Cream Pressed Rat and warthog.
Hendrix All along the watchtower. \ :lol:

I love your selection of music except for Pressed Rat and Warthog..... I guess it's ok but Cream did so many great songs I would pick another still..... selling atonal apples and amplified heat and Pressed Rats collection of dog legs and feet... is an awesome bit of lyrics
So what is worse.... dying or regretting it for the rest of my life? Obviously I chose not regretting it.

I think you should blast this during your Austrian amphibious assault/angriff.

Jaffa,
that’s a mighty spiffy multi-purpose aqua vehicle (MPVA)! Here at Surfing Waves Forum, our administration and your colleagues are safety conscience. Before you set sail on navigable waters or simply plow through unnavigable waters, be sure to don your U.S. Coast Guard-approved personal flotation devices (PFDs). Surfing Waves Forum endorses U.S. Coast Guard-approved PFDs based on the superior performance specifications required to achieve this federal government approval.

To make it easier for our forum colleagues, as well as readers & members in far flung locations like Austria, to identify PDFs that unequivocally meet the important U.S. Coast Guard standards, we offer the following images. Please make your selections from these images and forward payment to forum member billie morini.

That’s all very well , the schwimwagen, but all is well I’ve been able to watch every episode of Hogan’s Heros here in German. Very odd!.
And Schultz remains Schultz. So I can cope with anything. :woot:

Thumbs up on the music selection!

On you floating device, looking forward to see you in Billy-approved PFDs, with a river surfing board and you jazzy hat on it :lol: :lol:

They also showed Dunkirk the movie the other night. Sort of like showing Apocalypse Now in Vietnam :shock:

When I worked in the Highlands of New Guinea, many years ago, almost the first white men there, we had a movie night on a screen in the jungle showing Planet of The Apes first version, caused quite a stir amongst the Papuans!
When you consider that in pidgin English Helicopter is called “Mixmasta bilong Jesus Christ “ explaining that the apes were not a weird tribe and it was not real, was difficult!
