just don't like the 98' heat or it's raining!! The best boating is coming now through may.
Were going out tomorrow maybe take a run to landrys.
Know one question when did 39mti become a 40??
ps allways carry a spare MSD box.
My grandson birth and hanging out with family was more important than loto.
Maybe next year!!
MSD box didn't stop me not sure what you heard but I brought the boat back under power of both engines. Just a guess but I would say 06 or 07 that the 39 became a 40 example I have a 39 rp has a 40.
Great to hear about the new addition to the Nunez boating crew. When was he born?

I hear you,nothing bad was said but maybe you had lost a MSD BOX. I run two on each engine just because they give no warning.
I know you put alot of blood sweat and $$$ in your boat and I'm proud of you know matter what breaks!!!
Times have Change over the years never seen other boaters and suppose friends who are happy to hear that you have a failure!!
I like the trash talk and the fun over brand types but some off the negative chit is getting old. Me and my family have always used power boating as a great time to get together but I'm getting to the point were we are enjoying the boat more when we don't attend events.
Tyler was born the 24th, It is a great feeling as you well know to see my family growing!! Ask big Pete of the feeling that comes with your kids success and holding your sons child.
If you ever need some help don't hesitate give me a call,also remember my boat hangs in the hoist most of the time. That has come in handy countless times over the years.

The same reason I don't think you should have four classes for cat super-turbo charged. Whats the point I thought it was a Shoot OUT not a little league game were we don't keep score,and Skater owned the course except for pro cat.
Hell the 36 Skater NorEaster ran 177 and didnt get a award.
Skater HUll speeds

388 186 TOP GUN
40 165 Top GUN
36 177 ???
39 v 121 TOP GUN
388 118 won class/ Peppers

By the way your boat came out great to bad you didnt get to run the shoot out.
Peppers is a 368
