Congrats to MC and crew that were King to the Michigan City card stop. Skater Chris, your 410 ran fabulous, but you've got to remember to not slow down to 100 when someone's passing you at over a buck and a half. :angry-smiley-038: Wait till next year, :mad: no more "Mr niceguy" !!! On the second leg, after the helo's refueled, we headed to Chi-Town. With a giant storm cloud downpouring rain, that was in the path to the big city, we took the long way straight north, got in front of the storm, and cut back west into the city. Jim Lee with Freedom US-1, the 46 Skater, was 1st to Chicago, and running right next to us most of the way, was the Merrit brothers beautiful new 42 Fountain 850 boat with Wyatt Fountain at the wheel. Sorry guys, we just had to step it up a notch to be first into the harbor. Followed by another Shogren 42 Fountain, and the Chi-Town Hustler cat with Mark Smith at the wheel.
Thank you Jim for offering me the open seat in your boat saturday morning. Any time you guys want to take a trip back up to Chi-town, I will gladly be your "navigator" again. LMAO We finally got a little "bumpier" water when we got close to the city, and Jim was able to show me how them big cats "air out". I can't wait to see the helo footage of us running, but the helo fell back after we passed the 125 mark. Hope you enjoyed your short tour through the city with me. :drink:

If you have a really cool pic, let me know. I need pics for magazines. So far I only got one and it was Running Hott. Too bad it was good for a different type of magazine.:eek:

Pat yourself on the back, what a great event. Mark I know the days before the event were stressful at times for you but as "USUAL" you pulled it all together and you and your team put on a wonderful event. Not sure I ever laughed so hard when the food fight started at dinner but with Elliott there to mediate we were in good hands, NOT!!!! Furthermore, the event showed and demonstarted the ability of many boats and manufacturers. We look forward to another "Safe & Fun" event next year. Keep up the "GREAT" work.

Thank you from "Team Shogren"
