I gotta say this was taken the wrong way. Danny is a great person and came up through the ranks as did his throttleman. Danny started in a 28 Skater then a tripple OB 32, then an IO 32, then a pleasure 36. He's not someone that looks down on the smaller classes.

With all do respect, I got to say if KW was a APBA santioned race, there would have been 30-40
additional boats. Not too many of us dingy's
followed.

Lobsterboy....
thanks for the recognition. I was somewhat taken back by the DeSantis remark as well. Yes we are in smaller boats, but people love to watch us as we take a beating out there while the "biggerer" boats are just cruising along. We put our lives on the line much more than those guys because we are not protected by canopies and 5 point harnesses. I guess the point i wanted to make is that we have to race within our financial means and should all be considered equal "AS RACERS" Im sure those guys didnt just start out in a Super Cat and worked their way up. So they shouldnt step on us. We are just as important to the big show as they are. I know this has been stated above, I justed wanted to vent.
THANKYOU

Come on Bruce, watching you guys running around the course, throttles to the stops, boat out of the water 1/2 the time, some occasional chine walking action, rough water impacts, hanging on for dear life. . . . . etc., pretty boring I think. 
Good to see you in KW. You should pay more attention to who you hang out with, Polli's a bad influence.
