Yeah I've seen those video's before and thought what IDIOTS. Thanks for single handedly taking our hobby back 20 years, when people used to refer to these as drug boats by your reference to the use of them while on the lake. And as for your driving , you can still get into trouble even on a 60mph boat and get some one or more killed in the process. I'm just glad all our boats will be out in front of them. Oh yeah and we don't have to pay women to ride with us!!!


Just my .02

And think twice before you show up at the poker run , your kind of a marked subject now.

is that an offer, e-mail me some pic's so we can talk about an event and any other questions you might have. With press passes we don't have to pay but the CPC is not to fond of the company so we will work out something. At least let me pay your registration fee's.

Wow, interesting thread.

I dont know what that paying for a ride stuff is all about, or that website. However, I do know Matt, the owner of that red 34 scarab. Spent a lot of time on the lake with him last year. In his defense, out of all the times on the lake, not one time did I ever see him intoxicated from either alcohol or drugs. He's the type who will have 2-3 beers, then switch to bottled water if he's on his boat. Most of the time he on the lake with his fiance, and me and my wife.

I know I have done some tasteless manuevers in the past with my boat, and I have seen a lot of guys do some downright stupid stuff on the water. Everything from boozing, drugs, to 100mph passes along the breakwall and thru the breakwall mouth at the playpen downtown. If I had a 100 bucks for every go fast boat I saw go thru the entrance to the playpen between the breakwalls at high speed I'd be a rich man. If thats not a collision waiting to happen I dont know what is!

I just would hate to see my buddy matt get labeled a drug using maniac who pays girls to ride on his boat, just as I dont want to be labled that either since my old excalibur was in those pics from the photo run on that site.

Maybe if Matt did a few more fly-bys He could have found some unlucky sole to run into.

It's a good thing he doesn't drink and drive.
