Sorry no pics. Velocity (Steve and Kenny) were outside with two boats - a 290 with a Merc Racing 525 and an all digital dash and the VR1 hull based, center console, fish boat currently featured on the Velocity webpage. Standard paint jobs on both - the boom years Chris Cruz paint jobs fell victim to the market! There was a "Thunderboat Row" featuring about a dozen previously owned boats. The jack daniels 22' and the blue 390 with 700's/NXT's (featured on poker Runs America's cover this month) were there. Show attendence on Thursday looked up but I heard that it was very slow on Friday. I hope it was a good show for Velocity and the other venders who continue to stick it out.

Thanks for the update-now I don't have to challenge VV for proof! I hope they had some success at the show too. That blue and silver 390 is one of my favorite Velocities ever. And I am quite fond of the 290SC...

Thanks VV, I'd be lost without you....
Thanks, I hope they do well also, that blue 390 is one of my favorite boats out there.

Miami Boat Show Pictures Velocity Booth
On display is our 290SC started build in Nov 2011 finished Jan 2012. Poker Runs did a test / review on the boat on Lake Monroe one week before the Miami Boat Show.....84.9 on GPS with two people turning a hydromotive Intimidator P-5 Lab 29" pitch at 4900 RPM. I sent the prop out to lossen and pick up more revs. I have also a Hydromotive Quad IV 28" pitch(was sent out to tighten), a Mercury Maximus 28" pitch Lab, and a Hering Bravo 1 Six blade 28".
Our experience with Velocity was over the top. Kenny Hohwiesner provided a level of customer service that I thought didnt exist anymore. Kenny is driven from the heart with his love of boating. An amazing individual with exceptional attention to detail. Kenny typically does the work of three people.....a very high level of energy.
Kenny convinced me to upgrade to the HP525.....I am glad that I did. His assistance through the whole design process was invaluable.
