Didn't Bobby S. get a Skull fracture in an Apache cat (I think Cougar built them)?

Great vid!! I wish I had some old ESPN stuff when we race in Argentina in 1999 or so. It was 6 + that day in some places

I ran a 28 Skater to Bimini this year. Never know what you'll get. It was a fun run!!

Why didn't you run yours? 28's awful small in the Atlantic you were lucky...

Wouldn't that be some great offshore race! The water size in Atlantic City 2010 would be perfect! Apache Heritage with some modern Mercury Racing 1350's & M8 drives (Richie Powers & the original crew would be the best!) A 46 race Skater with the same power ( Jim "Freedom US1" & crew would be the best choice!) And of course Fabio Buzzi in his diesel monster! Now that's real Offshore Racing with the top guys!.....

That works for me. 6-8s with some 10s thrown in to wake the guys up! I would pay money to watch that.

We have a 46' Skater and one spectator. That's a start! :evilb:
