Donziman, PQVyper340 & I rode in the new Donzi F2 race boat. WOW, 72 to 84 MPH in 3 to 4 footers with 5 guys and 1/2 a bag of gas, and the ride was nice and dry. If I had a drink, I may not have spilled much!!!! I don't think the driver had a chance to really bury the throttles either!! The HRPA had a really good time down there. I have over 100 pictures in the camera, some of them are when we rode in the F2 boat. I think one of them will show just how fast we were going. Just pray that I kept the camera steady enought to get the pic.

The PQ booth was rockin. Met with Pete Basica and asked about a 100 questions. Trust me, you will be hearing alot from PQ soon.
One thread here was about better clothing, it IS coming. BUT we had to wait for PQ to get 2 new boats introduced. One was a 280 Suncruiser, looked sweet. But the show stealer was the new Revenge 300. Kinda like a 280 on steroids. I will try to post pics to this new OSO board. Note the GPS tattletale speedo!!

BTW, Fri night at the Florida Powerboat Club party, we were talking with: Larry Smith (as in Larry Smith Scarabs), Steve Simon (Donzi Marine. . .you will hear more about this guy in the future), Bob Teague, Freddy Keikafer (sp?) . Donziman2 had some great conversations with these folks and I'm sure he will relate them.

The OSO party ROCKED too! Met C-Spray, Catmando, Deboatmon, Jeffery, Steve (board god 2), and SO many others. Nice to put a face to the names.
More to come as I sort it all out.

BTW: That's PQVyper340 in the pic. He is looking at the windscreen on the 380 Avenger, wishing he had his painted in mulitple colors. See the look on his face. . . .****!

PQ had the Red edition 300 at the Grand Rapids boat show. Man what a sweet boat If I wan't such a bonehead, I would have brought my camera and took some pictures of it. I looks like the hull is painted the same but the interior is done in red instead. Very nice indeed!!

Bill,

Did you happen to snap any pics of the 280 Suncruiser? I love to see that boat, compare it to the 320.

Boatless (papa) Mike,

I thought I snapped a pic of it. But appears that I didn't. There are two other digital camera that I am going to get pics from (other HRPA members) and I will post them too.
