Thanks JC. They gave us great coverage I thought. That was a blast other than my fall. The next issue of Powerboat Magazine will have some coverage as well.
Again, thanks.:D

Where did you have to change a prop?

jayboat 07-30-2008 06:40 AM

Threw a blade about 30 miles from Key West, on the way down from Marco Island. With guys like Kevin and Terry around, no worries!

We continued to KW on two motors and did the change at the marina.

I was thinking the same thing as the weight of the prop was dragging me to the bottom of the marina.

Thanks JC !

An awesome experience and ride of a lifetime...Seeing the mountains of Cuba in the distance was pretty incredible.
Bob, Kevin Cooper, and Terry Sobo did a great job running the hell out of that boat!!!!

Great Run guys and a great write-up on it as well.
The accomplishment of the run is awesome and the dedication of it to Jennifur really shows your true colors!

Kudos to you Bob and the whole Predator team!

That would be none other than Terry Sobo, and the back of Kevin Coopers head, after I almost let Terry sink with that prop in his hand...sorry Terry :party-smiley-004:

salesmanship 07-31-2008 12:32 PM

Hans you just overestimated my water treading abilities.
I could see that look of pure confidence in your eyes as I was sinking. You knew that I needed help but your weren't going to give in. You knew I would reach down inside and find that strength and the will to resurface with that 3000 pound prop in my hand. Kind of like when my dad threw me into the deep end of the pool and expected me to swim on my own. I knew nobody was going to save me but myself.
Thanks Hans for helping me become the better treader that I am today.

Hey Terry but at least you looked good doing it and now you're a rockstar courtesy of Hans the Rockstar Maker

rockstrmkr 07-31-2008 02:01 PM

Aaaaaah Yes! So even in not helping, I end up helping! I love that.....
Sean ....Terry was a Rockstar (at least in his own mind!) long before he met me.....:drink:
