Hey Cuda ... is THIS what you mean?

I met George a few years ago on a Donzi run from Hometead to Isle Morada. He had just sold his Donzi, and I asked him why. He told me it was because he just had a new child, and decided he should quit tempting fate, so he could watch his child grow up, and he was the most safety concious high performance boater I ever met. You've probably seen pictures of him with a paracute strapped to his back. I think he told me 124 was his highest speed. His boat is in Saratota now.
Helluva a nice guy, and smart as a whip too.

124.....crap. Thats f'in fast. Too bad there isnt video of that boat.

I'm sure there is on the donzi net. It might not be the 124 pass, but it was well over 100.

After further review of this not so good video and sending it off to to the Universty of Acme cartoons and letting Whyle Coyote him self anyilize the video it doesn't look any faster then 70 mph and there was no shot of the GPS in the video

That Donzi was impressive. He was really having to saw the wheel at speed. Reminds me of the old Hydrostream days!

I can't belive I have been overlooking this thread for days. There is some serious entertainment value to be had here!!!

I still don't understand all the race challenges from TD. It doesn't matter who he outruns, he claimed the boat will run 100. Let the GPS be the widowmaker. Is this thing on for this weekend? If so, Monday should be fun around here.
