The same boats get a million pics every run every weekend but a guy like me is lucky to get one)

Im sorry the guy isn't happy. I have known the guys that put the run on for years now and I know they work very hard to put on a top notch event. The run was opened up to 100 boats this year and even at that some people had to be turned away.

As for the little guy, I have to say I was treated well by everyone and no different than anyone else. Even got a pic from the helicopter.

Well almost everyone.
Maybe we are just too fast for the chopper.

That boat has had a magazine write up (performance Boat) and is used in checkmate/hustler ads. This boat/owner deserves to be treated like royalty. I find it unacceptable to hear he was treated like everyone else. To suggest a boat/owner of this caliber should put his ego aside for a charity is Absolutely apauling!
