Slug, You guys helped me get docked at big dicks (I was in the "don't panic" boat) and I in turn helped you guys get off the dock safely. Your boat is very beautiful and you guys are a class act. I know that I took off in the first wave and you were no where to be seen for awhile. When you guys passed me you were flying and looked like you were taking no prisoners. That boat runs every bit as good as it looks. See you guys at the shoot out! Gary Smith

That's just one of the new excuses these days. Someone always slowed down to wait, thought it was over, got lost, had the wrong props, or drain plugs, etc..... so congrats on having none of the above AND a beautiful new boat! 
Racing/running around with your buddies at a poker run is no different than any typical Saturday for us. It's just a fresh crop of boats to play with at a different venue usually. Why would anyone want a fast boat or car if you can't go do what it's built to do, ESPECIALLY with a few others?? The actual poker cards have never been the reason most people attend. They're just a fun added bonus to a boating rally, and buying extra hands or draw cards earn more money for the charity...that's it. They have rallycross races all the time at car events for guys that never take them out of the garage. Same goes for motorcycle rallys. Enough whining about guys playing with their toys.

I'll see what I can do (although, I think they kicked me out of the club until I buy another Skater..
)
