Well,
1st off, my thanks to Dave Callan, and the Callan/Mystic crew for allowing me to EXPERINCE such an Adrenaline RUSH!
It was AWESOME!! :D :drink: :D We only ran 187 because there wasn't time to schedule any safey divers.

And the only problem of the day was a power steering pump belt broke!

And I have NEVER been in a boat that turned @ 140 MPH!!! :eek:

And Scott B. you were correct, I have never felt acceleration like that in my life!!

Counting down to LOTO! :D

Good Morning Dean! Please have your wife take you to the doctor immediately. I believe you have eaten some Manatee that was way under cooked and have contracted a horrific mind altering disease. The problem was not a broken power steering belt, it was the lack of a steering wheel! See your picture above. Please do not operate any power equipment until you have been seen by a physician! :drink: :p

Hope you had a great time! :cool:
