Well, it's definitely entry level for me: I know twat about racing and I can buy the same boat the reigning world champion will race.

Last winter, Randy and I walked into the same showroom at 40 Seatuck Ave in Eastport , we signed our deposit checks, and we get identical boats. Only difference: Randy's has the instruments on the left so he has something to look at (see attached,) mine has ITS, which is a no-no as per APBA regs, but o.k. for a civilian like me.

Kirk at Kryptonite ( http://www.kryptoniteboats.com ) will be more than happy to sell an identical vessel to anybody who walks into his "showroom." Which I can wholeheartedly recommend.

Finally, Randy, having driven all the way from New Jersey to Long Island, meets his boat in the flesh.

He inspects the tabs.
He likes them.
He asks: "Will the boat be ready for Marathon?"

He inspects the dash. (Or what's there to inspect.)
He dreams a little bit.
He asks: "Will the boat be ready for Marathon?"

Then Kirk gingerly brings up the dreaded M-word.
Randy whips it out.
And he asks: "If I pay cash, will the boat be ready for Marathon?"

Runaway: It's a Longiland thing:

"U-boat." "What, my boat?" "Yeah. U-boat."

Babylon has a long history of confusing people with their language.
