Plus I like coming back from a day windburned and tired from having a trillion cubif feet of fresh sea air shoved in my face. I like to stay out all day sometimes to 2am or so. Being able to stay out of the wind running all day if you run 100-200 miles on a sat is a good thing. To each his own I guess. |
I'm reading this thread with my 5 year old and he keeps bugging me to check my lottery tickets lol

Love the Lemonators. The red one looks like something you'd see at Speed Week in Utah running on the salt.

It's just the looks of the new mono's and all cats just don't do it for me because they should. You see nowadays I am mostly a sailor have been both for 45 years ,loving the offshore boats more in the earlier years but now more towards the sailboats . Grew up sailing on the classics and loving the beauty of them but that all went on the window when I went for a ride on my 1st hi-performance cat 35 years ago and now I can look past the awkwardness of the looks of the sailcats and admire the beauty for the speed and efficiency that they possess. Just ain't workin in the powerboats for me quite yet |
My dream boat is a 42' Fountain with 1350's :drool1: Come on Powerball!!

Nothing really over the top but still can not afford any of the wish list that I would like to have.
The original Dragon Boat The brand new GTMM Pick of any brand new Apache The brand new 42 Chief Brand new 43 Nor-tech Brand new 36 Sunsation Maybe a new 41 Pantera All V- hull apps on my wish list for single engine boat apps New Rage New 29 Laveycraft New 29 Progression new 29 Hustler New 30 Adrenaline If all possible New 28 Apache / Brave with a single engine app. or a used 30 Activator in mint condition and babied. Not in any specific order either. I better start saving every penny by the looks of this list. |

But this is still in my top 2 favorites I know it doesn't probably handle like any of the newer models but it's all Class http://i1273.photobucket.com/albums/...ps50e47d26.jpg |
Interesting thought ,the dreamboat. To me the dream boat would be just that the dream that I came up with using some custom builder somewhere taking a proven or not so proven race hull and making it a beautiful pleasure boat maybe a large phantom or SeaRex . To build something not in the mainstream.

Hogie, I like this pic luv the way the windshield looks like its part of the boat naturally. the windshield doesn't look like an after-thought but a natural integral part of the hull The receiver just flows soo smoothly from the deck to the receiver to the glass thanks for sharing these pics Who makes this glass windshield?
