what ever happen to bill elswick? still on "vacation" anywhere except america.

Welcome to Offshore Only charliets. Billy's been in the "general population" for many, many years. Why do you ask?

Interesting first post!!!

Charlie - Back when I was finishing up my Top Gun in 2003, CashBrain / Jack was selling the one Long Shot boat cheap. I came really close to buying it. I regret that decision as much as the mistake of selling my Coyote. I always though Long Shot was such a cool boat.

Everybody on here has a first post, might as well make it interesting!
no special reason why I ask

Billy was away for several years,got out, and went back in for another year when he could not accurately state his assets.
He is out now for about 2-3 years.
Pretty wild character "from the day"

looking for bill and cashbrain? I have LONG SHOT here in CHI-town. I need motivation, the 39 needs lots & lots. Any pictures ? Thx.

My very close friend Billy is now doing very well. He recently had a brush with death, suffering a stroke and having a quad bypass done, he then got pneaumonia, and almost died, but he is strong like a bull, and has endured much in his life. Everything is behind him from the past, he is free and living in a beautiful home on the water in Ft. Laud. I stay in contact with him to this day. At the time of his stroke he gave TNT a deposit on a new Skater, not sure if it is still a go or not, I`m sure he has to recover. I raced with Billy on a couple of occasions, once in San Fran really rough race, he was amazed how I ran the boat in big seas, he learned a lot in that race, unfortunatley we blew a diaphram in the Injection head and lost fuel pressure while way in the lead. Second time I ran was Cowes Torquay Cowes, we won and set a course record.
