Here are a few pics of the boats Saturday morning prior to the start. Pic 1 is a 46 Skater that was running side by side with MyWay (pic 4, 160 MPH turbine Skater) at about 140 MPH in the main channel. Frank C is the Cig in Pic 3 the boat you were on. That was the only "new" 38 Top Gun my Dad saw. http://www.donzi.net/photos/sboxma001.jpg http://www.donzi.net/photos/sboxma002.jpg http://www.donzi.net/photos/sboxma003.jpg http://www.donzi.net/photos/sboxma004.jpg http://www.donzi.net/photos/sboxma005.jpg
I'll try to track down some action shots, my Dad, and brother in law had a bit of "technical" difficulty as the day went on. :D :D

Scot please move this to the events section. Thanks.

The Poker run was awesome! The Superbowl of the runs, I couldn't believe how people would just wave and clap at you for no reason at all? The people are great up there!I will be there every year. That was my bald head standing in the Cigarette in the second pic talking to the Outerlimits guy. I was on Tom Cat The boat is unreal, Set up like a Jet Fighter and a speed that is pure excitement 177 mph. As soon as I pick up my new Scanner I will up load the pics. :D :D

Frank, I can't believe my Dad was that close, and we didn't know it. I'll definetly be clearing my schedule for next year. I'm glad you enjoyed our part of the world. :D
