You came up to the infamous Sandy Cove where we often hang out.
Hope to catch you at the Boathouse this summer, I could use a high-octane 'slurpy'. Plus I need some tips from the King of Bling on what to upgrade next.
Hey Kelly,

How did you make out with the lights? That is a bad azz video of both the rooster and Speedo .... I have a friend of mine from Canada looking at a 38 Lightning with 700s w/NXTs (?) .... I think that is what he said .... would be a contender for you I would think ? Who knows .... All I know is ... I am an honest 80-82 mph straight up Route 81 behind my GMC 2500 HD w/Duramax ......

Jeff,
Lights installed, looks great on the trailer.....hope to see them underwater after dark SOON !!!
Thanks again for the hook-up, owe you a ride sometime this summer. Then you will want to become "Mr. Got Staggered Twins".
Yes, 38/700 boats are great package, run in the teens pretty consistently. Good luck to your friend on the purchase.

Driving home and tired!
