Default 2008 Chicago Poker Run

Two cameras mounted on the boat.

I did another video with sound.

Oh my God, Brad !!! I did'nt realize you guys were that far from port when you's started taking on water. What a phuckin nightmare for you. You're a mechanical surviver tho, and I'm glad all turned out well for you and crew, and you were able to keep her above water and get back on the trailer.

Thanks for bringing that beautiful cat to our poker run, Brad.

What are those white rooster tails behind us that keep getting smaller in the video?

I did not realize there is no sound... I will make another video. The sound makes it much better hearing the engines screaming.

Great video! Thanks for posting it.
How fast wereyou able to run on one engine?Or how fast did you have to run to keep the water running out instead of in?

A hole in the bellows was my main concern last year when my gimble broke and the drive was hanging fromthe steering ram. But if I went to fast the drive would swing over into the working prop. Of course with a cat you've got much wider between drives.
Glad everyone was safe.

Brad, great video and happy you were able to get her on the trailer

I think we would all love to see the forward camera for the whole ride. If you're taking request that is
