That's awefully smooth water for LOTO or did he just not want to run int the rough of the channel?

Donzi ZX, there is nothing wrong with New Yorkers. Growing up just outside of The City in Jersey and 4 years of college in Queens I'll take their driving any day of the week and more than occasional F' you, because they call it the way they see and mean what they say. :lolhit:

I have thought for a long time that performance boats on inland lakes days are numbered, an ******* like this just accelerates the process.

Cool boat! Piss poor judgement they should ban him from the lake it will make these idiots think twice about this crap. Just for the record try that move around me and see what happens trust me it wouldnt happen twice! We have to police ourselves or they will do it for you.

I watched the video. All I see is another irresponsible and reckless display of idiocy bringing us all one step closer to the end of our recreational go-fast boating privileges. Thanks, guys! Way to go! If I lived in any one of those homes, I'd be making damned sure you guys were getting a visit from the authorities by now. WTF were you thinking? Good thing someone wasn't swimming at that time, or you didn't lose your steering and end up in someone's backyard...because we all know it wouldn't be the first time one of these takes a nasty spin.

If we don't start taking matters into our own hands, someone else will and we won't like the results. It's time to put an end to this kind of behavior and call out those who jeopardize our freedoms. It nice to see many of us stepping up in this regard.

Beautiful boat, though, but that's another thread.

3:24 and 20:57.

Nothing is more important than operating in a manner which provides for the Saftey of you your passengers and others. Total BS trying to justify driving like this.

We are our own worst enemies.

Just a month or two ago there were a bunch of clowns yukking it up how much they like to create a racket at the docks and restaurants with their engines as well as other times. I couldn't believe how many members there were laughing at this. Now we have noise limitations in many places...not so funny anymore is it? I mean come on...we have noise limitations in CT where we boat on Long Island Sound, really? It's a frickin huge body of water, 1300+ square miles that empties into the Atlantic and they put sound regulations here? Keep it up people...

Beautiful boat, runs really well. The driver on the other hand was completely at fault. If he doesn't know the lake or conditions, slow down. Cut inside a buoy and it is a mistake, I get that. Back out of the throttle, correct the situation, and go on. At that very point of seeing the first buoy on the wrong side of you, your primary concern must become 100% safety. And that means slowing down and correcting the situation.

But by staying in the throttle and cutting more buoys is just negligent. Just because no one got hurt, does not make this any better than the fountain accident. Great, all you need now is for this video to go viral with the fountain crash. See a crash and see irresponsible behavior all by the same group.

Haven't read all 10 pages, is the driver associated with the manufacturer? Or is he just a private owner? If associated with anyone, I can't believe they are happy at all about this video.

Move these things to the great lakes or oceans, lots of water out there.

Nice boat, but it is really sad to see it and see people trying to defend an act like this. Just sad.

Very nice. Now your joking about a safety violation and illigal behavior. No excuse in my book, broke the rules and joked about it. This just keeps getting worse....

But you forgot to add, why we actually started so far back in this pack,,,,,,, If my memory is correct,,,,,,, you ran out of gas going to the start area on Friday morning,,,,,,, and had to be towed into the gas dock,,,,, I am sure you were rushed to get the camera set up.
Great Video

Doc Janssen
Back to reality in Denver,,,,

Cheers,,,,,


Try some offshore water next time in your "offshore boat"n (lake boat) on LOTO. LOL
