Running wide open into a clean 3ft chop with the radio blairing my favorite rock songs ......... The smell of coconut oil and fiberglass in the same wiff ......... The sound of the BB raging as you trim out ........... That's the stuff I call FUN ..............

We've got a second home on the local river. Boat is having a motor rebuilt now, but had a blast just hanging out at the river house this weekend. Something about the sun and water is uplifting!

The smile on my friend face when he hands me his wake board after I just crossed the wake of a 100' mega yacht in the intercoastal

nice picture of the inside of the quay. I love it when there's a poker run or race with nothing but power echoing off the buildings there.
