I am glad no one was hurt and all of the "sinking possibles" were untied and on land before going under.

Congrat's Joe!
That was quite the ride in Chi-Town last year. You were a little tense the first couple of minutes, but obviously enjoyed it
I can't wait to see it up there this year.
How about "The Texas Two Step"??? or "Double Trouble" It may already be taken?

I didn't make this year's poker run either. I had to work, the one weekend a year. I guess I was lucky. I caught up with a few of the guys on Sunday at Top Water and heard a few of the gory details. 65mph winds, lightning, tornado warnings, pulled a cleat out of the dock and about 10 rafted boats floated out. Several severly damaged. I haven't heard whose boats, but I feel bad for them. The storm hit our house about a 1/2 hour before it hit Galveston. Unbelievable how severe it was. I knew a couple of my friends were on their way back to Clear Lake about that time, fortunetley they made it before the storm hit.

Chris J (SkaterChris) just registered that 41' with the 1500's this morning for BoyneThunder. He has a matching F650 and tilt trailer. I can't wait to see that thing. You should bring that up and join him for BoyneThunder and then go down and do the Chicago run the next weekend.
Was Connie C's new Skater done yet? She is bringing that up also.

Here's some pics of it on the way to the ramp. I can't believe how enormous it looks on that tilt trailer behind the 450.

Yeah, having not only never ridden with B, but also to have never even seen him run his Skater, I was a bit nervous. However, I must say.... I ran the traps with quite a few folks, including Bullock, and everyone's comments were the same ---- they'd ride with him anytime. B is smooth and pays attention to everything --- including the "whole" we hit on the way to the 2nd stop. EEk........
