These first two shots sum up the day.
Second pic is Mercedes-Benz, Aqua Mania and Pure Platinum all coming to the same conclusion at the same time: F@#K THIS!!! :drink:
You can see how far into the gulf it took them to reach the U-turn conclusion.

My pilot was fighting the wind all day- trying to hold position and could not turn into the wind-
we had to go the long way around every time, and couldn't go too low for obvious reasons.

Quite a memorable day, especially for the 8 rough riders that managed to make it to the lunch stop!

Looks like a normal afternoon out here in San Diego. It always turns to **** in the afternoon.

Yes.

I can't post it because I'm gonna submit it to Powerboat and Performance Boats tomorrow. PM me your email and I'll zap you a proof.

Which Nor-Tech? I got most of em that stayed home. :drink:

If you know the guys in the black Donzi, please have them contact me. I got a whole series of them that is... kinda dramatic.

here's another from the start...
