The enclosed cockpit look like it had 2 inch think glass and built like a tank... I think he got tired of Callan running fast at the shootout.
Very impressive. Congrats Mr. Scott.
The Mercedes MTI thing was sweet too, a little too blingblingy for my skin color. Notwithstanding I don't have the Million and change to jam in a boat so more power to the one that does.

Mr. Tomlinson must of been busy throttling and driving that thing.
Aside form that Cig had two 39's with full cabin and a few 46's no 42's.

Enough of the million $ boats. I thought the Concept fish boats looked good. The lone 37 Active Thunder at the in water show was also a nice piece. It runs and handles great also. Thanks to Pat for the ride. Joe Murray

Cruisers® 34 and 44? were looking way better then the Sea Ray cruisers were. The layouts were more open and had better layouts I thought. Bajas 40' Cruiser/sport was alot of boat for the buck but it seemed like the interior was slapped together by IKEA.
Thursdays party was alot of fun, good to meet all the extended family and my online nemesis and his lovely girl Cassie finally. GL is everything I was expecting him to be and Sean H and 42 MTI are just some good ol boys like i knew they would be. Douchebag of the party goes to the goatee prick from CP Performance that was physically pulling Shonda Whipple away from me as we were trying to catch up after not seeing each other since the Desert Storm poker run ( no class ) Cherylynn gets the partygirl award for shakin it with me through some kick ass reggaeton' and hip hop at the Friday party. E Dock gets the weak award for 1 incident though, we had to waste 2/3 rds of a bottle of Goose at Mangos cuz they wouldnt roll up to VIP to help us drink it ( there were only 2 of us there )
Good times though, I will be back next year for sure.
