Besides that little Fountain getting some serious hang time, that is the best air pic of them all (and Kenny's Tiger).

I'm just glad the helicopter knew what side to shoot the pic from...I wouldn't want your mug breaking the camera!! :eek: :D

Did you call Tim and let him know?

That 'little' Fountain must have been WAY up front to find that much clean water.

I hope you didn't get offended there...Theres two Fountain pics there and the other one is a 47'...Most anything is "little" compared ;) And I don't know where the hell it was in the pack...All I know is we were under 10 boats out first to Catalina! :drink:

Hey Gerrard, talk to Tim...He's thinking of launching the Tiger from C.I. tomorrow. We're taking a twin step Tiger too. Get up here it's going to be a good day.

Ok, back to the pics...Sorry.

No offense taken Tank - that's not my Fountain ( however, mine's about the same size ). The observation about the 'clean water' is valid however. I wasn't IN the run, but started outside Queen's Gate after the pack went off. Worked my way to almost mid-pack by the Avalon card stop, but there was NO clean water in sight.
That was a GREAT run - which boat were you in ? ?

Gerrard (SemperFi) and I were on the Green/Yellow Tiger. Jim Neely's old boat now owned by Tim w/new Teague 1000's on 6's. Ran 90-95 all the way out there and we started near the back of the pack, got hairy getting through the confused water at the start. :eek: :drink:

And we saw that Fountain later in the day, it sounded healthy! Look at it closely, it's a trippy boat. Racing bolsters, straight bottom, no swim step and check out how the deck is raised higher than usual from the rub-rail. It's one of Reggies originals before all the step designs.

And by the way, no nasty comments about Kelly (the girl in the red top)...That's my fiance! :D :D

Yeah, I noticed those things earlier. That's an older SWEET-lookin boat. I'm thinkin' that if she wasn't actually running toward the front of the pack, the shot was taken real early ( also judging by the heavy overcast that burned off relatively quick ), when the boats spread wide at the start, looking for clean water to run in. . . wish I could have found some, that side-to-side slop got real sketchy at times. . .

Tank - BTW, for someone ( me ) who has never ridden in a Tiger - how was the ride in that boat ( I guess that's you sippin a martini in the back seat ) at those speeds ? . . . lots to be said for length, power, and displacement, huh ?

thisistank 09-03-2004 08:43 PM

Re: SCOPE poker run copter shots are up!!!
 
Those Tigers are SICK that's for sure. They run great in rough water as well as the smooth. I don't know about "sippin martinis"...I was holding on tight while we were airing that thing out! Tim is a mad man on the sticks! It was good water though no matter what you were in.

Hey Tank!

What time are you guys going out? I got a couple things to do early but wouldn't mind going for a blast. My boats still down but maybe I could catch a ride with someone? Schulte's in Havasu so can't bum off of him!

Hey Al, I just got in and read the thread....I'll call you in the am. We'll be in the water by 10am...two Tigers and a couple of 38 Scarabs

These are the only others I found. The owner also brought his 36 Skater to the run but it never touched the water. Must be nice... :D :cool:
