Good article... And videos. Looks like every time I have ever had to come home from PIB hungover... Gota love Erie

to answer your question Nate and Dan, YES. but i guess no one cares about the 23 year old bringing his own boat to runs around the country lol got forgotten about in the article, and awards sponsorship lol whatever. We were boat #4 or 5 to lunch. In the main group as everyone. Not sure how we weren't noticed. Here's a pic Pete got of my rig. And here is us, at the lunch we apparently didn't make it to.

No thanks....I've run in some huge Pacific Ocean water...Running in a little big water and airing out the ride is fun. Running in confused, BIG water, is too much like work. F*ck all that.

You're wrong about one thing: I definitely care. It's just hard to be aware of every great potential story. No slight was intended. Give me a call sometime, 650-642-4726.

Clearly you were not there and the pictures are photoshopped. Everyone knows a boat with Arnesons cant get on plane when it is rough, or at least we have been told so by some Great Lakes rough water self proclaimed authorities.

Looks like a good time. Reminds me of Boyne last year!

Perhaps the Hustler was overlooked since it was assumed that without TRS drives it couldn't run hard in the rough... Just in case it is not obvious this comment is meant in humor, geesh what does anyone's age matter and how did this turn into a tool measuring contest. For the record I'm an old F&&k and my Velocity would have had an impressive 25knot average speed in that water.

Thanks Matt for the great pics and video! (Not sarcasm for those sarcasm challenged ��)
