Is this Rob who fixed my water pump last year at Glen Cove? If so you have quite a collection of single engine boats now!

BTW, you look way too young to have a son that can dive a 30 foot Activator...not hitting on ya, just sayin'!

When I was 19 my Dad gave me keys to his 21 Checkmate/225 Merc. I thought that was pretty cool at the time. I would have pulled much hotter chicks with a 30 Activator though!

I bought a used Hardin sea strainer over the winter and had that installed. Blew a water pump the first time out so I took the strainer off(at high speeds water was coming out of teh top, filling the bilge). Everything has been mint since then...I've just stayed out of the sand!

Me(28 Active Thunder), my brother(29 Fountain) and my Dad(24 Progression) are all running our boats in Lake George Oct 10th. We have a house up there(5 miles outside the village), so we spend a lot of time up there. What boats ya bringing?!

I remember those days being 19! Only one year ago! Congrats on the Activator. The paint is great on that one!

Rob, another boat?!? When I ran into you for the SBI race (w/the eliminator) you told me you had a problem but I didn't know it was that bad! LOL.

Not only is that one of my favorite Activators of all time, it is propaply my most favorite single engine boat period!

You bringing anything to the Hudson fun run on the 10th? I'm going to try to make this one in the Fountain.
