Next time use a cardboard tube roll it in body filler then roll it in BB's fill with gunpowder fuse in one end light and run. Much more effective than a shotgun.

I don't run hard very often because I can't afford it... but I'll burn over 200 gallons in a day on the bay. ;-)

Usually about $500-700 a week in fuel in the summer.

Where? I don't ever get beat up around here. Seriously though, it's mostly cruiser wakes. ;-)

I think this was the roughest day of the summer and this was in September. The Cig in the background is OSO's Offshoredrillin. He was tryin to run me down in the slop but it didn't work that day. He'll just tell ya he had the wrong props on. ;-)

Kinda like forgetting to bring your slicks to the drag strip. Hah. You ever boat on the Great Lakes. Talk about fun... Although it's a riot you can find yourself having your hands full rather quickly but it's a rush. I've only boated in the ocean once but was still a lot of fun along with an unexpected surprise starring you in the face. River boating fun also but I tend to get up close and personal with fellow boaters. It's all fun. Nice running boat btw.

You don't run in rough water because you don't burn enough fuel to get out into the big water. You guys that live up North run in lake water. How many times have you gone South of the Bay Bridge?

I think he's seen 88mph so far. It might be a little higher but I don't remember 100%
