This is the start of the Super V race in Daytona last year. The first picture is everybody coming around behind the pace boat getting lined up for the start. We are on the far right in this picture. The second picture shows the lineup getting ready for the green. We are second in from the right in this picture. The third picture is just as the pace boat is pulling off. We are on the left and the Miccosukee Fountain is on the right. These are not the greatest pics, but the show some decent tails.

Tell ya what Bobby. How about a 70 mph ride in the rough stuff. It really does feel faster. NK

for a smaller boat GEOO sure does produce a whoooole lotta spray ;) might as well toss him into the mix... nothing like 1000 hp in an 18 foot boat and an arneson :D

I can personally vouche for that statement!! Parnell's boat is awsome in the rough stuff. Even in December!

I was going to throw out the Bud Hydro, but after someone posted the top fuelers, that did it. Not very offshore, but a great scene anyway...

That is the small Dirty Laundry boat. The one that makes it is the 4-engine with twin arnerson drives.

Thought that too, but a closer look reveals something big running behind the SeaRay (or Formula 40SS) ... it may be an optical delusion Strip :D :D

Nice pic of FireWater from Camden this past w/e :cool:

Having had firsthand experience.
I can tell you that hands down it's Nauti Kitty.
The pics are great but watching it as a rider and seeing how everyone else flee's the possible washdown. I'm tellin you all that it's just great.
At 90+ I'm guessing that it's a conservative 100yd plus tail.
Just keep trimmin' it out Parn.
Best,
Rice Hauler

No boat throws a nastier rooster than the Pershing 76 yacht with twin Arneson drives.

Re: You pick! Which boat throws the meanest Rooster Tail?
 
This may be a stupid question but I cant tell what Nauti Kitty is....Is that a Rough Rider? What drives, 6's? That tail is SICK though!! :eek:

Rice Hauler 10-20-2004 08:20 AM

Re: You pick! Which boat throws the meanest Rooster Tail?
 
Tank,
It's a 41 Saber with twin Chief 1000's. Dry 6's on extension boxes.
Believe me it really redefines the term "rough water ride" The weight and hull design work so well together that you really begin to see that lighter may not always be better.
Also take it from me that Parn gets everything out of it and has had no failures this year that I know of. It's high performance with routine maintainence.
Riding in it at SOTW was a great experience.
Best,
Rice Hauler
