Griff, Nice to finally meet you as well.

Yep, I was heading for the ramp. Had to get home to relieve grandma.

Good to finally meet you in person as well.

Boat looked really good going by...
Will you guys be down for the Harbor Hop?
Regards
Bobbie wasn't real thrilled with the rough ride back. She doesn't mind the big launches, but hates getting tossed side to side in that washing machine. She knows its mostly caused by the water conditions and not by me, so I only get yelled at for a couple seconds.

Thanks for the compliment on the boat. We've been real happy with it and it has has exceeded all my expectations.

We won't be able to get back down for the Harbor Hop. We've used up the Grandma's for the year.

WL came by us on Saturday after the racing up by the bridge, boat looked like it was running/riding awesome. I was very impressed, nice show.

Nice, Eddie. I'd love to see WL and some other FAST V's out there next weekend putting the hammer down.

This is quality entertainment...The Travis comments are pretty obvious...either your jealous of the girls that he CAN get to hang with ...or your eaten up with envy of truley, one of the most beautiful looking and evil sounding V bottoms on the planet! Sorry, it is was it is...That boat needle slaps at 113 without being dialed in completely...if you can't handle that fact, then maybe you should build one?

Hey Travis, it was great meeting you last weekend and hope next time you come to Grand, you bring WL.

If not, you always have a seat in the Cafe' if you don't mind going too slow.

I think most here really admire the boat. We'd just like to see it spank some others straight-up. That's all there really is too it. There's something to be said for layin' it on the line and lettin' the chips fall where they may, no matter what you drive/own. JMO

Travis, your ride kicks a$$. Period.
