I guess I'm missing something to be able to post pics? I looked at membership upgrades but nothing is listed for posting pics. Please excuse the innocence of this newb.

His boat is pretty unique. It was Rinker's attempt to tap into the high performance market. He has a Rinker 262 SS Captiva. Has a 496 HO and for a BIG 26 footer runs really good. Rinker ended up getting out of that market, so you won't see many out there.

There are definitely some Baja's on Conroe, but also several Formula's and Fountains. My brother sent me these pics. Notice a couple 292 twins rafted together.

I think I've seen that boat on Conroe, but never got close enough to realize it was a Rinker. I will also keep an eye out for raft-up like that because I've yet to see one that big on Conroe. Not that it is big, but for some reason they never seem to get bigger than 4 or 5 that I have seen.
