Rainbow Chaser is still around, and running. I believe oso member MR. CIG (Mark)took it on his honeymoon many years back!! Im too young to have been around those days, but had to be great having a buddy throw you the keys to his offshore boat for your honeymoon!

I hang out frequently with those old guys on T-dock, and know quite a few from down on the river. Those T-dockers got 20-30 years on me, and I still hit the Vberth long before they do! Maybe you recognize these two guys....

Actually the 6-8s were between Government Cut and Haulover. I only saw one dumbazz in a boat out there and it was me. And it truly was 6-8s. I was only glad tide was going in and not out or Haulover would have been a poor choice to enter.

And on your topic, put me in the Apache. Saccenti on the throttles, of course!
We need to have R'Addiction post the videos from the Thunder Run a few years back up on YouTube. Specifically, he needs to post the one where I have an argument with my 'other' passenger about our navigation path. Clark was 100' feet away and his 37' was disappearing from view as we took turns cresting.

We always find the roughest water once we make the turn in Miami and head north.



Is it spring yet? :D
