For the non-believers: I was driving T-Mone's boat in that first picture, you can see how nasty the Long Island Sound gets. We ran about 62-64 mph with the drive level and dragging just a touch of port tab in that picture. There was still plenty of throttle left too. When we turned around and headed back into them we "cruised" at about 66 and tattle tale GPS said 74 when we stopped. Awesome little boat, a ton of fun to drive and Long Island Sound is more than just a pond.

I love the 24 Sports! And I'm sure the water was even nastier than it looks in the pics. What power is T-mone running?

if you're going to play in my yard, the least you could do is ask me to come out of the house....

Hey Christian:

I had Pat's number but not yours. I tried information, but the &%tch didn't know how to spell "Gott". Sorry, really wanted to run with you that day. We went as far as West Haven breakwaters, just a stones throw from you.

We'll get together in the spring.

Ron

Hey Ron and Anthony - thanks for a great day on the water! I'm really glad Scott talked me into going with you guys That little 24 is one unbelievable boat! I could not believe it was staying with (and passing) the 28 in that water!! I wish we had a picture when we hit that tugboat/barge wake! I was seriously thinking that I should have worn a parachute when we launched, but we landed like it was nothing (must have been driver skill )
