Boyne thunder speeds?
 
I've always been interested in going up there and doing the run. But I would like to know what is the average speeds of the boats out there. I hate to get out there in my little formula and just be in the way of everybody. I do not have a 70 miles per hour plus boat

Not only did I have a blast last year, I won... And I maxed out at 60 wfo last year..

Fastninja434 04-05-2015 07:07 PM

hey thanks for the reply and the information appreciate it. Seems like people are gun shy to answer that question

All different speeds, 4 different speed groups at a staggered start. I ran 70 - 80 last year. Also, I won 3rd.

You won? I thought it was a poker run not a race.

He would have won if he was setting in the toilet, what does your table have to do with it?

BS, Try 85 all day

Relaxing 04-06-2015 05:34 PM

Its not about how fast you are. its about enjoying your boat while hanging with others doing the same.

Sweet you will love it! Did you get a spot because I thought registration was full?

Boyne is a great run don't be intimidated by speed. Great question though.

I'd like to bring a radar gun on our marshall boat this summer.

Like everyone else has said - speed is not a big deal! I'm one of the smaller boats and ran 55 to 75 (mostly upper 60s), and stayed with the group just fine!

I apogize for my ignorance. How exactly does a poker run work.

BlueOval 05-19-2015 07:51 PM

You find 110 boaters who are willing to come together to raise money for kids with cancer. You pick a quiet little town in northern Michigan with awesome waters. You have a kick ass street party with boats and hot rods. Then you get a few hours of sleep then head out of marina to 5 stops to pick up a card at each stop. Then you turn in your cards after a great day of boating, then get everyone together for dinner and drinks and open up all the card hands.

Website I can get the particulars?
