To complete the sleeper/rental look you need to have one, tampon-sized fender ridiculously far forward on each side of the boat so they can flap in the wind like dog ears at 70 + MPH.

Visible sunblock on the nose with large pink sunglasses would be cool too !

This is why helmets are required for all Shootout participants!!"

Don't forget the Bimini top. Goes hand in hand with fenders all the way around. The Bimini will add lift and good for a couple mph...

Nothing screams "it's a rental" like wearing these bad boys.
