That was one of the most exciting things I had ever done. The ride was insane!!!
RIP Gary
That's a cool f*ckin' story!

Yeah, it was like a dream come true. Our family owned a house in the same community he lived and kept Jennys Express. I used to hear it fire up all the time and just wished I could take a ride. This one day my buddy and I were walking down the dock and just sat there and watched them play around under the hatches for a while, and he invited us for a ride. I still remember he kept turning one motor on/off because it was idling faster than the 6kt limit!!!
As we were flying north up the ocean a 38 Cigarette went the other way and we turned around and the race was on! We blew that guy away! My buddy was scared sh*tless but I loved it!

Haha, couldn't afford it then, can't now.
I have a 34ft cruiser that is expensive enough to run. I've always been a fan of the big offshore boats though...SOMEDAY it will happen.
