Ya it does actually!

Small cats are probably THE most dangerous boat in the wrong, inexperienced hands. I had a small cat as my second go-fast and it was very unforgiving.

Some guys got more $$$$$ than brains! Thanks buddy for raising all our insurance rates. I am glad no one was seriously hurt!

1. LipShip Gladiator Blue/Silver Texas

3. Current 38 TG - Tickfaw
4. F2 38 TG - LOTO
5. NJ TG - Last weekend
6. NJ TG - about 2 years ago/ boat was recently for sale damaged
7. Lipship Gladiator - Biscayne Bay late last year

These are just the ones on the top of my head. The only Fountain I can think of is Cashbar's incident.......

because there are a lot of stupid people with ALOT of $$$$$ ...... Present company excluded .....

Last night at the sign up meeting for the Royal Purple I heard that the insurance company may auction the boat off "as-is". I'm sure I'll hear more this weekend.

Heard about this the night it happened and it depressed the hell out of me. Easily my favorite boat in the area (exept for maybe AJ's

). I've got some pictures of the wreck somewhere but they're pretty similar to what Croozen posted.

Wish I had been in town for the Hooters party, just got back in from Mexico last night...
