I know, definitely not the coolest but had to post after seeing the late 80's Benz; these are both 1988 models.

Yrs ago I was at the local pond when a guy pulled his ski boat to the ramp behind his garbage truck!

Told him it was the funniest thing I’d seen.

Here is my 1998 Velocity 280. The only thing original is the hull, seat frame work, crank shaft and most of the electrical.

Yes the first of Three that Don Aronow raced with that name.

This boat was the first it is a 1963 Formula 233 with a single 409 cu in with twin 4 barrel carbs on it.

The second boat was a 27 foot Magnum with twin sterndrives and Mercruiser engines

The third boat and most famous was the 32 foot Cary that Don won his second World Championship with in 1969. Engines were full stagger and drives were Speedmaster# 2

For me, it would be a jet boat.

I truly regret selling this one.
1973 Southwind with a 468 BBC.

Yeah, 2000. Used it three times since 2010. Will be sold if I don't use it this year.
