Is a go fast an advantage?
 
The last couple years i have taken the Formula 400SS on the local poker runs, This year i have a new Cig so i am taking it.


In the past when we head out to Havasu ( myself and wife ) we have usually ended up with a crew of about 10, Now everyone has been great and we have had an amazing time, well Desert Storm is coming up and already have gotten the calls. Hey Dan, hows it going, hey think i can catch a ride,
What? oh really no room :( ok well cool have a great time.

But for me i will have way more fun running the Cig than the Formula but will miss all the people we have had going with us.

Guess ill have to buy my own gas and beer this year :)

We have more fun on our cruiser than the Fountain when on our normal every weekend water. All our friends pile in, have the dance floor, bathroom, running water and tons of room. On the rare occasions we travel and take the Fountain, then it's just usually 4 of us. A different type of fun, but always a great time none the less.

Have them get a hotel and meet you there! I have had 11 on my cig just to run to a sandbar party but 6 is max for a poker run.

Somewhere i seen a cartoon in a boat mag of a boat that had a atm machine on it and the capt/operator had his hand out. The passengers had a very surprised look on their face...lmao...

When I was first shopping in 2002 for a new Go-Fast, my GF asked "Why not get a cruiser so we can take a group" ?? I looked at her and said, you just answered the question.

My idea of boating was always two couples, or her, two of her friends, and me.

Over the years i've been asked many times , how many people will that boat haul , the answer always remains the same , TWO . Just could not believe the people that tried to invite themselves along . Occasionally i will give an invite but for the most part we like our privacy . Yea i'm a pr!ck , but i'm a nice pr!ck ....:daz:
