WOW !!!

The triple digit boats have grown to 47 (19%)

That's amazing. I had no idea we had that many boats that would run 100+ MPH.

lets see, 20 years ago. 5 litre Lauterbach (sitting behind engine)(2500 hp nitro methane chrysler) Hydroplane called Fantasy, 165 mph. That held for many years. Scared me to death. Good thing we had a profession driver. My arms were locked in a death grip and I couldnt have turned if I wanted too. It may have been more like 30 years ago, oh god ,am i old.

And now Im happy doing 65 in a barge. uppy:

Wouldn't it be nice if steve would do his boardgod thing and tell us who they are so we can all poke fun at them (except mr. callan marine who still needs to take me for a verification ride )
