Tickfaw200 in the Rum Runner
Well, I ran the Tickfaw 200 poker run last weekend in the 26 and loved every minute of it. My Girl and I ran every stop and the boat ran great and handled the lakes and rivers awesome. You have to be proud when you run next to a 39 Outerlimits, a 33 Powerplay, and a 32 DCB in the chop of Lake Pontchartrain in a 26 footer.

I got it from Mass but I don't know where the original owner had it. I believe it was in Mass for quite some time. Thanks for the compliments.

It was a good feeling and the old lady wasn't even scared, she enjoyed the ride almost as much as me. We were in the air about every third wave but I was able to work the throttles and make it pretty smooth.  The new 380 tabs I put on her last week helped me out a little too. I have a new respect for Alpha drives.  I wish I had pictures of that.

Originaly from CT for 3 weeks till the 18 year old girl that got it as a graduation gift from high school , scared herself and the father then sold it to the guy I bought it off of, his name was warren and was in his upper 40's-50's and a family friend that used to bring me out on it when I was 18 years old and I got hooked! and he ran it from 86 to 1998 and I bouht it and repowerd it, and Painted that color scheme.
I then sold it to move up to my 33 , the kid I sold it to lost it to the bank.
stultz has the story from there....
always in mass its whole life.
And those alphas can handle more than anyone would think. If you know how to drive, for the 5 years I had it, I NEVER blew a drive! and I ran it right there with my buddy's 33 powerplay without a problem.
GREAT BOAT!
Stultz We need to send papers back and forth, PM Me!
