Miami Boat Show Black Thunder demo rides

Hi friends,

If you make the Miami show, we'll have the demo boat at Crandon park marina Saturday and Sunday. Crandon Park Marina is on Key Biscayne just after the Miami Seaquarium. I believe we'll be using Joe Malazi's new 46 with twin 525's, really pretty boat and we sure thank Joe for his courtesies.
The Black Thunder land display is once again at the main entrance of the Miami Beach Convention Center. Look forward to seeing you there, and if you're a BT owner and need a little boat ride in the sunshine drop by the marina. Happy to take a member of the family out between new customer demos.

Steve David, volunteer captain for the weekend

Steve, we will try to take you up on your offer. Joe and Sue Murray

Joe and Sue, look forward to meeting you.
Maryland Mark, I think you met Bob Jenkins, owner of Black Thunder. I was not in KW this year. He and I have spoken about a center console. It's on the radar screen.
I don't work for BT, I'm just a former customer that helps with design concepts and provides demo help at the boat shows and new customer orientation. They were great to me when I owned one, and helping is my thank you to them. I don't receive any monetary compensation. Just get to meet some really fine people and play with boats!

Steve, sorry we did not make it for a boat ride but it was just to cold to enjoy. Mayby next year. If you ever get to Lake Cumberland look us up at State Dock. Joe and Sue Murray

Thanks Joe,

I look forward to meeting you and Sue. If you ever have the time, please come to our Unlimited Hydro races in Evansville IN or Madison IN. I'll be happy to provide pit passes.

Steve, I will check the dates. We should be able to make at least one. I thought that the movie Madison was great. Joe and Sue Murray

Hi Donna,

The entire schedule, the teams, etc. can be found at abrahydroplanes.com.

Lighthouse Point is just north of Fort Lauderdale and just south of Boca Raton on the southeast coast of FLA. We're a small waterfront community on the east side of US#1 bordering the Intracoatal waterway.

Joe, I was blessed to know some of the characters referred to in the movie. There was some stretching of the truth in the movie,(taking the engine from the fighter memorial, it had a Rolls Merlin while the actual Madison always used an Allison) But it accurately portrayed their commitment, humility, and ingenuity. They are a great team to drive for!

The graphics of the yellow boat on the trailer at the show was beautiful.
