Your Looking for my Friend Bill / Check300.

Up there every year for the 4th of July.
This year there wasn't many people to run or that wanted to play
last year however we had a few nice runs.

Either way Bill is a great guy win or lose, just enjoys boating and always up for a great run.

30' CheckMate
#6 Drive with 12" extension Box
572" tall deck / Twin Turbo

I beleive the other check your talking about was a 303 white with black and dark teal thats my old one I beleive you ran T.C. bay blast and seen us in Tawas and Bay City alot best was 101.7 you'll see it up that way this summer a friend bought it I'll dig up some pics

Like cougarman said thats Bills boat, like 50 to 110 its a missle. I belive he is still super tunning and prop testing, topend still unknown. Boats a awesome set up, got to see it twice already and its a sleeeper for sure.
