Here is a little video that was put together of the Laveycraft 39' EVO running out at Long Beach this weekend after the Poker Runs West "Stimulate This" poker run....

We ran that boat HARD during the run!!!! Third to the first stop, (first vee bottom and less than 3x the HP as the first and second boat), behind Predator and only seconds behind a 32' Skater with 1100's. We gave the 32 a run for his money and left two Fountains behind. Keep in mind this boat only has 700's.....

I love it.

GIVE EM HELL!!!

The fact that the little guy on the left is now the "factory racer" is just awesome and given that you probably had a boat full of guys with decades more experience than you- but you were still driving is a testament to the fact that you are really good.

First class equipment and rig for sure, but the driver gets his dues....

Thanks alot Dave. That means alot to me.
Ya after the run when I was talking to the guys in the Skater and I told them that I was driving they couldn't believe it. Then on top of that they asked how old I was and I said only 17 and they just about **** themselves. lol
They couldn't believe how good I can run that boat and give them a run for their money...
It was definatly a good time!

Uncle Dave

Attacking Jr's credibility before establishing your own reduces your comment to nothing more than frontier gibberish.

I Didnt Know He Was 17, Now I Know Why He Was So Excited. Didnt Bash Him Just Letn Him Kno That Big Horsepower Boats Take Alittle More Time To Get To Ass Kickin Speed.

Haha ya...... Or you can just talk to the guy driving the Skater and have him tell you he was working his ass of to try and leave us but couldn't even come close without airing the boat out to much and getting all crazy and out of whack. Yes, there were times where he was walking away from us, but everytime he did that, due to the water conditions, the boat would just catch way to much air and get out of whak and I'd be right back next to him. It's hard to see all that in the vid and I'm going to assume you weren't there so you don't know exactly the conditions out there....
Because believe me, I am more than aware that big horsepower boats take a little more time to get going. And I am also aware that that Skater is a lot faster than our boat. But that would be in calmer water, on that given day with those conditions in the rough, we were able to hold our own and stay right with him no questions asked. But given a clamer day, the Skater woulda been far ahead of us.
