Nice vids! love the Gro Pro stuff. Looks like the AT's and the Ciggies are both fast. I have only seen a couple AT's up close and they look really nice for sure. Going back to the comment on the weight between the Glad and 37 AT, I think they are closer than you think in weight. A Glad is defintely heavier than 7K lbs more like 9K+ loaded up. They are very heavy duty. But anyway, it would be cool to see and all out drag race between the two with equal power. Good stuff!

We picked our line to run the inside line with Dino and instead of trying to cut off the other boats turning out we decided to have some fun and run through the wash, (was actually funny as hell in the cockpit) it was a mixed bag of 3-4's with rollers coming in, hard to tell when you are running 100+. I have been very impressed with the wave crushing ability of these boats from day one when Pat the owner of A/T personally took us out for a Demo ride in the open ocean, he sold us on these boats and where ready to order ours on the spot, but due to the current economic times opted to pick up a used one and rerig it to our tastes, best decision we have ever made. We put in saturday morning at Bolles harbor in 6 + footers and never once had to slow down, we ran the run and ran it back to Bolles sunday morning with 1/2 tanks of fuel left, pretty cool. If you would like I would be happy to take you for a ride one day so you can feel the difference, we are proud members of the A/T Cult and love running with the group. Running with Dino was the highlight of the event and I dont think we will ever have a better time and will gauge all future runs against it, I cant say Thank you enough for one hell of a good run. Thank you Dino you are a class act ! Laszlo

It never does in a video but these are my waters and believe me, no one is exaggerating here. That lake can get downright nasty as can the western end of Lake Erie. It's not predictable rollers either. It is a big mess with uneven wave height and lots of holes. Watch some of the other boats bouncing all over the place before they stop trying to keep up!
