Maybe we will see you around sometime. I think I shot a minnow not really sure.
One good thing about hitting 50 is your kids are old enough to take care of driving the boat and you don't have to worry about water patrol or worse

Had a great weekend down at LOTO weather was pretty cool but hey I got to put the boat on the water finally!!!!
We had her wide open once. No wind and about 58 degrees just a slight ripple on the water 93 octane fuel and just a little less than half a tank of fuel. Props are still Quicksilver 23p SS 3 blade cleavers. We hit 63mph on gps at 4300 rpm!! I think that's about all she is gonna do unless we make a run sometime with less fuel on board!!
70mph would be fun some day!! But I'm happy with her for now!!
We got a couple of really good pictures I'll try to get posted!! And dropped her of to get the vinyl fixed again!!! I sure hope it's right this time!!!
