Ask Dee and Sakoutis why they took the calm way home on the west side of old orchard.
maybe you do since you need to run faster in the river We were also out for a cruise, full tanks....even had oil in the motors.

Old orchard? They ran along SI all the way home? You sure you don't mean west bank? You were so far behind how do you know where they were?

I ran 52 mph from when we took off up until the tip of Manhattan. If you want you can look at my GPS log. The only time there were waves was at the tip of the hook, near Governors Island up to the tip of Manhattan, where if you recall we were in front of you, then we slowed down to enjoy the sights and you kept going.

Do you have brown eyes cause I think you're full of chit!

Hey, nice baby blue boat!

I guess that would mean I was headed for the ocean.

Yep, they made a right hand turn after the VZ bridge, I made a B-line from the VZ to the tip of the hook.

When we left NYC they were in front. By the time we got to the hook I passed Dee and they were about 3/4 mi. to the west, Sakoutis was just in front of me to my west about 3/4 of a mi. as well.

The boat likes the chop. Running in the river at 3200 I'm at 52 mph, in the chop yesterday the boat was running 55 mph at the same rpm. Had to get the resin bucket unglued from the water.

Hey, nice baby blue boat!
I gotta bring my camera when I run with you, you're having memory problems again. You way ahead in the bay we cauught you through the rough so by the time it was calm we were ahead of you. I never touched the throttles and I don't need a GPS to figure out how to get to NYC. It laid down a few miles from the VZ, sorry without the GPS I can't tell you how far, that is when you moved ahead of me. Then at Govs island it got snotty with the ferries, water taxies and we pulled ahead of you until we stopped at the CG boat.

Hey lets slow down at look at all the pretty waves

Have a call into JK to see if he still has on the onboard video equipment that was in the Skater. Gonna need to install it into the chip to record your outings.

Ever notice when you look at a jet really high in the sky is looks like it is going slow. Well the same principal applies to boats. He was just trying to get some distance between the 2 of you so it didn't look like the OL was pulling away so fast

I didn't get a phone call? I had to sit in the river! Guess I'll have to watch this thread every hour to find out what is going on. Saved lots of fuel though!

The queen stopped over on Sat, I should have gotten your number. We didn't even have the oil in the boat until 9am on Monday morning. Aren't you over next to the boat club?
