Does this boat belong to who I think it does....??
 

Says J. Jennings. THAT J. Jennings? :rolleyes:

Hmm, guess he knows where the good exposure is :D

I think his name is Jeff...he was @ the A-Bay poker run 2 yrs ago, he is a nut...wore a "cat-in-the-hat" type hat during the run..was was a bit wacky too..good people though

Yep, the same.

Jus' checkin'.

If it is......what a D I C K ! Come on to here and advertise his friggin boat on a performance site that he ripped off?

Well......YEAH!!!:rolleyes: :evilb:

At least he gave Steve $35 bucks. :D

Owner of speedwake.com Was a member here then tried to start his own website calling it offshoreonly.net. Completely ripped off OSO, copied everything about it.

cant beat em', join em'!!

What a sorry piece of sht!

The irony is so thick and awesome on this one. Even he knows that if you want to move a boat, you have to come the right site, and not his cheap, lonely, knock-off playground.

When was this? I knew about speedwake but knew nothing about offshoreonly.net??? Not trying to stir up trouble just curious.

Do a metacrawler search (better than google) for offshoreonly.net. Most of the story is there

Several years ago, maybe back around '02? He tried to start offshoreonly.net and got slammed. Renamed it fastboats.info or something like that. Eventually changed it to speedwake. Was hugely obvious that he copied everything straight from OSO.

I hope Steve charged him the super duper extra special ARSEHOLE advert rate :)

It was when Jeffery (I believe OSO was still Jeffery's site at that time) started to charge for memberships in order to attach/view pictures. At the time OSO was transitioning from a hobby/club type of site to a business, and JJ was *not* happy about it. He threw a fit, said he'd never pay to view pictures, etc, then went off and built a site named.... www.offshoreonly.net that looked exactly like OSO. There were some rumors of counselors being involved, and then the site changed to fastboats.info. Then to speedwake.com.

Somewhere along the way, the concept of "speedwake supporters" came to be, where if you bought something from the speedwake store, you'd get access to premium content like certain forums, videos, and the like. I know it might *sound* familiar, but it really was and is a completely unique idea that Jeff came up with all on his own.

Of course, I'll probably get banned now... :rolleyes:

From the "classic" OSO :)

Old school baby! Who else remembers this format? :D

I was told that he was at the OSO party in Miami while his own Speedwake party was going on......without him there.

There was also a matter of "squatting" on a few web names like OSO.net and trying to sell them to the actual site owners. I hope he gets his money's worth advertising here, he threatened to sue my club because his ad wasn't out for long enough in our directory (the directory was a month late). Then we found he had never been invoiced and had never paid for the ad:rolleyes:

actually we were not charging for pics at the time he started his site. the part you forgot was the part about him registering people to his new site at the time and then pm'ing them on OSO and telling them to come over that they were already registered.

he has copied every thing we have done including banners speedgirl made, the softwares we use, etc.

quite flattering.

I saw him and his wife pulling in to St. Michaels a couple weekends ago while having lunch with my attorney.

One thing he will never copy is my boating abilities according to what I saw in St. Michaels:D

I will take the high road and will leave his ad in place.

OUch!

What up Homie? You forget about us OSO S. Fla peeps all Summer again? :rolleyes: :drink:

Of course not, I ordered you the pink koozies as promised.:D

LMAO!!!!:D :evilb: :drink: :evilb:

Steve, Did you get the PM that I sent you last week?

Hey Steve, thanks for the clarification - I just remember that the whole picture thing was a big burr under JJ's saddle. Ah, the old days... :)

yes still trying to catch up with the week befores pm's. call you soon:D

:eek:

I remember something about some sort of internet ranking for boating websites. I remember them saying they were ranked number 1 by this company due to hits or traffic or something.

I think GLH, CigDaze, or Cash bar got into it with him about the rankings being crap.

I found it hard to believe that a website with less than half the membership and half the traffic could get this so called ranking. Not that it really means anything to me, but I did find it humorous.

That's my $.02 for this thread...

Buck

You guys are lucky.....I have to see him almost everytime I go boating.....Everytime I go down there.....Every MF'n time I go F'in go down there...GD it!@!! And the Outoflimits eats drives like a 50 hustler with 1200HP and bravos. Cool looking paint and the motors are nice....but the drives are sacrificial:eek: :D

Hi Burger King I know you can see me.........It's Ike Brother....Remember?

Awesome, I'll cut them into a nice bikini top for the new girl. :evilb:

When is the next event I am supposed to be attending? :rolleyes:

"Audacity" is the first word that comes to mind, UNFLICKINBELIEVABLE, what a TOOL.:rolleyes:

I do! I was on way back then but forgot my password and had to re-register in 2000.

I can't be the only one that's wondering what he did to show his boating abilities, so spill the beans please

HAHAHA ! :D

JamieB, Do you know JJ?:rolleyes:

Nope, he sure does sound like a tool though ! :D

Too bad we cant post questions / add comments to his ad !

Get a plane flight and come to Jammin on James. And bring that new pink thing with you.

I remember those days and found a post of mine on there. Cool. OSO is the biggest , best performance boating site period!
