Anyone know the story on "Cat in the act"?
 

The boat if for sale. Has anyone heard anything why the boat is for sale? Anyone know anything about any issues with the owner? I heard a few stories that shocked me. Anyone for New York or New Jersey know anything??

This story should answer all questions.....

This story was all over the papers last week...... suprised it never showed here untill now.......great looking boat though...

He should sleep with the fish.



Rick OSG

the sopranos of powerboats....

what a dickbag for leaving his children , amazing how the TUFF men turn into puzzies when there caught....

Is this Al Burns old skater OUT OF CONTROL, or did he buy another one?

Ok, so what's the bad part of the story? A bad guy gets caught doing bad things and turns in other bad guys to save his skin. His wife had no idea that he was doing illegal stuff, right.

Did he mistreat his boat or something? Why should we care?

cause its interesting

He looks kind of like ben kramer in that mug shot.

and *poof* he's gone is suprising??..theres only two sides to a fence... 1. he's swimmin with the fishes or 2. he's in witness protection and if thats the case..why keep the old lady?? she became accustomed to a lifestyle he can no longer support..women have big mouths...even bigger when there unhappy..she is a liability to have around, period.

Joseph Vollaro ratted on the mob and ran - failing to inform his wife, Trisha (below), pregnant with twins, about what he was doing or where he was going.
DelMundo for News
The mob rat whose secret recordings devastated the Gambino crime family abandoned his pregnant wife without a word about his double life - or his future plans.
Trisha Vollaro, who's carrying twins, learned about her husband's FBI undercover work only after word of the sweeping indictment became public last week.
By then, he already had betrayed her.
"If you woke up one morning and this bomb was dropped on you, how would you feel?" Trisha Vollaro's sister asked Saturday.
Joseph Vollaro walked out on his wife without any luggage, conversation or compassion, his sister-in-law said. "He said, 'I'm leaving' - and he left," she said.
Trisha Vollaro remains unsure of her husband's whereabouts. He could be under federal witness protection; but if so, he opted to go without his wife and unborn children.
The Staten Island trucking company owner disappeared more than a week ago. Before taking off, he sold a cement business for $1.8 million, records show.
The couple lived in a large house, its front yard enclosed behind an ornate iron fence inscribed with the letter V. Joseph Vollaro loved singing and speedboating, and owned a 40-foot craft dubbed "Cat in the Act."
Last year, the Vollaros won the Best Dressed Crew award at a Florida speedboat competition. In a photo, they appear happy.
But Vollaro also had served 16 months in a New Jersey jail in the late 1990s and did 37 months in federal prison on extortion charges, meeting Gambino capo Nicholas Corozzo behind bars.
Vollaro began doing business with the Gambinos when he got out of prison, then flipped on them about three years ago after he got involved in a drug deal.
He will emerge someday to testify against acting boss John (Jackie Nose) D'Amico, consigliere Joseph (JoJo) Corozzo, Nicholas Corozzo and others.
He may also have to face his disgusted wife. His sister-in-law, who declined to give her name, said despite his misdeeds there was never any spillover into his domestic life.
"The truth is he was one of the best people I know," she said. "There wasn't one thing I could ask for that he wouldn't do for me."
She said her family was rallying around Trisha: "Good, bad or otherwise, we will stand together and be as strong as we can."
She insisted the couple had been happy and that her sister was unaware of her husband's secret life - a claim reinforced by a family friend.
"She doesn't know nothing about nothing," the man said before driving Trisha Vollaro off in a red Corvette. "You think wiseguys tell their wives anything?"

this is as bad as when I drive down the highway with a boat and most 18 wheelers get on the cb radio and ask me if the boat is owned by a drug dealer. I get back on the radio and ask them or tell them that they are watching too many Miami VIce shows and that is not the case anymore. As for Joe I have taken him and his family in my truck when his boat broke down last year during the key west race and he was very nice. No one on this board really knows what his true story is and we only know what that we read in the newspapers. As for the boat, Gino if it is the same one that he bought from Al Burns then it was a very nice boat. I think Al's was a 2000 model and I can get you his phone number if you want it.

:D

I'd rather read about this any day than 30 threads whining about how every boat in the boat show out of someones income level is way overpriced, or that insurance, life jackets, and fuel are too expensive......or both! :evilb::cool-smiley-011:

But he Doesnt have a "SKATER"!

It is a nice boat and was being well maintained!

don't forget all the help Cash get laid threads......or this offends Sdwayz threads:cool-smiley-011::cool-smiley-011:

Not me! I would hit the ignition switch after what he did!!! I worry enough about my schitt blowing up without it being connected to a mob informant (rat bastard)!

I didn't really know this guy. He seemed like a pretty likable guy. When we were in keywest, he was in the Orange MTI that was on display talking with Randy Scism. He was talking very loud because he knew there were quite a few people listening to him negotiate buying the boat. He was telling Randy "if I buy the boat your going to put the motors where I want them or I'm not buying it. I want them all the way forward! As close as you can get to the firewall. Atleast 18" forward". Randy said he would do what ever he wanted but the boats run great with the motors where he always puts them. Joe told him "I know how to set a boat up, I want them forward".
I was thinking, this guy has the nerve to Randy Scism, of all people how to set his boats up?

Wow! I was docked right next to the guy at Sea Isle prior to the Key West run. He wasn't real friendly...but man that boat was LOUD!

that chit's funny!

can't imagine why... :cool-smiley-011:

Hey Gino who's that guy walking on the front of your boat? At least his shoes are off! Looks like one heck of a party going on in that pic:cool-smiley-027:

Cool. Then I guess it's ok.

It was. :D
Sarasota Poker Run- Oct 07- Saturday morning before the run.

A bit later it got even better:

Some of us actually have to earn an honest living..... :hitfan:

I agree with Brandon. Lots of whiners these days on OSO.

This is an interesting story. Just goes to show you never know who you're talking too.:party-smiley-004:

It is a wicked boat and was being well maintained with an open check book ...

That dude was spotted on Long Island 2 days after he disappeared in a restaurant.:hitfan:

Joey V. was an active member of NJPPC and spent alot of time at the Jersey Shore suring the summer.

There are many rumors running rampant about Joe, what he did or did not do, etc...

Bottom line.....no one in this forum knows what he did, how it happened or where he is. Opinions are like a$$holes - everyone has one.

As for the boat - it is mint and will be coming back to NJ at the end of the month and is for sale. Over $100k was spent on the boat last year. Asking price is low-mid $300's.

Hey big daddy DAVE well put :angry-smiley-038: if you have any info where ,when send me a p.m. hopefully boat is still in the same shape .
ROCK ON ITS A SKATER NATION !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The boat has been stored indoors in South Florida. Anyone interested in purchasing the boat should contact Rolf @ ProTechnologies Office: 732.477.7039 or [email protected]

Hello Gino!! Can't wait to hear your stories and see your mug on the cover of PRA magazine!!!:D

HEY BIG DADDY PRA covers only happen when your in a SKATER :evilb::evilb:
ROCK ON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!

well said...and the boat looks awesome.

This may have something to do with his driving or lack of. He was in my group on the way down to KW, and he was very light in the front the whole way. Every time we would get into a little water he would get pretty loose.

Michael did he have ROLF in the boat in your group ???? i would think with Rolfs offshore experience they should of had a handle on that BADD boy :cool-smiley-011:

What power is in the boat?

I hope it has auto start :party-smiley-004:

Rick OGS

Rolf was in the boat when they took it to Key West. As for HP I think (not 100% sure) it was at 1500hp each. I would call Rolf at ProTechnologies to confirm.
