The photographer caught that shot on the only one footer out there that day! I could have skied the rest of the way down to KW. That looks like his son Carter not his brother. I forgot his brother’s name.

Great so far, handles the snot in lake ontario like a much bigger boat. few minor things to work out, couple gauges not workin. outdrive had some metal flakes in the oil when winterized........getting ripped apart as we speak. sending the prop out soon. but I expected to have some issues w/400 hrs and 10 years. Cant wait for the summer to get some more time on it. hopefully new paint scheme and some changes in the upolestry colors this season or next.
what you steppin up to........28 0r 33 or ???

gotta hang onto this for awhile b4 steppin up

EDIT: Oopse, quoted the wrong post.... meant to quote Clark's comment re: Carter being the one standing up (Roy's son) vs. his brother. Operator error!!!! sorry.

Steve.....You've got a great memory!! Hope all is well on your end. I retired from Foley's after 31 years of service and decided to try the insurance business. Went to work for my good friend Ken Collier at Elton Porter Insurance. It probably won't surprise you that my specialty is High Performance Boating Insurance!!! Take care.

Hi Dave,
Now there's a smart move...you get to enjoy everyone else's fast boats without all the hastles of ownership!!! How's Gerald and his transmission shop?? Is he still into the boats?? What became of his staggered 600 37??

I dont know haw many 37 with staggered 600's were made but one was at a repo place here in CT, then someone bought it and rolled it, due to idiotic driver error. Cranking the wheel at WOT isn't a very smart thing to do.

Its undetermined as to exactly what caused that accident. Details were never posted on OSO. It was confirmed that all 4 aboard were intoxicated. That boat was in VA for years, and while I never saw it with my own eyes, I do have friends who looked into buying the boat, and advised that it was thoroughly abused before it made it to CT/NY.

Just to clarify, I have turned my boat at WOT, and Tres Martin whipped a controlled 180* turn with DocmanRich37's boat (AT 80MPH)----so the 37AT AVH DOES turn VERY well.
