Speed is a beautiful thing
 

Just got home from a day of boating. I ran into a friend out there and he took me for a ride on his boat. My new personal fastest, 155 MPH. What a freekin rush. It was amazing. The boat actually felt more stable at 155 than it did at 95, but I'm sure that's just me. Very smooth running boat

Awesome! What kinda boat? :cool:

32 Skater

Awesome! X2!!! I've been 127 in a cat, a buck and a half plus has got to be a rush.

Skater 32 Pic Please?....

I did 134 on the same friends first 32 skater, about 10 years ago. He went to a 36 foot skater, I never got a ride, he went to a 40 foot skater, still no ride. He now is back to a 32 and I luckily ran into him, and the opportunity was there. I took advantage. I'm so glad I did. He's an awesome guy and I've known him for probably 32-33 years. He just happens to be a busy guy, but when I see him, it's alot of laughs ( and speed ). Everything he owns is fast, even when we were in junior high, he had fast stuff.

I wish I had some for you. It's a hot boat. It used to be on youtube, I don't know if it still is. It had the speed record for a 32 foot boat ( not sure if the record still stands- I think it was 172 or 175 or 177, something like that )

Awesome!! 112 on a 31 AO is the best I've done.

It was so funny though. Me and a friend are flying around on my boat thinking we were so fast and cool, and then we jump on the Skater and do 100 mph more than we were just going. Talk about a dose of reality

Talk'n Trash 32...???

You got it. What an incredible machine. I've known Vinny my whole life, and he has gotten together with some good people. I wish the TalkinTrash team nothing but success. I sit down with Vinny and talk boats, and I get all the inside scoop, and he never has anything bad to say about anybody. I've only met Jimmy once, but I'm told he is an awesome dude. I wish the team success, and to stay safe. I feel that if you ever met these guys, you would root for them. I know alot of you do know these guys, I'm just giving my 2 cents.

Hey Brett,
Thanks for the kind words!! Glad you & Don got to go for a ride & feel that boat pull !! Keep in touch

Sweet 32!

156 is my fastest. What a feeling. Whats cool is when you're running close to 100 in your own boat and get passed like youre standing still on a run like the KW FPC run. I start cracking up.

Yea! I here you. Low boost we went 172.3 mph not to many boat going by you @ that # :)

It is unbelievable! Its actually "RETARDED"!!!! Could be the new name. Have to run that one by Jimmy!

You see that Vin, Dollabill went 156. That means you have to take me for another ride, this time 157. lol Thanks again buddy for the thrill

Both Skaters are the finest of machines. The raceboat has got to be one of the baddest looking I've ever seen especially with the newer canopy.

Skater 3212 Flat Deck... JC Per 1100HPS 172.3, Great looking, WILD PAINT...!!! love that 32!

Super fast good looking boat!:drink:

There's nothing like going fast on the water!! Thats a great looking Skater. I've been close to 170 in a Vee Bottom and 140+ in numerous cats. Like Dolla said 100mph is nothing these days. Thats just crazy fast in a 32ft boat!!:D

170 in a vee. You got bigger balls than me!!!

yup me too, that's pretty nutty. I would like to "watch" a v bottom do 170, I just am not so sure I would want to be in the boat. That must be pretty wild.

Why is the Talkin Trash team not running Sunny Isles ? The run to Bimini is perfect for the 32. I hope everything is ok with the team. T N T # 1

1:50 on the vid.....the good 'ole days :drink:

how 'bout 177mph? :coolcowboy:

This is the fastest I've been in a boat, the old Callan Marine C5000 cat, (now the Miss Geico Turbine boat).
It was amazing, quite the rush to say the least
