Dude, he's got ya beat!

Last year we were pretty close in the speed department. This year with the slower drives I think he's faster than the resin bucket.

In that chop with no cabin he would be jumpin and I"d have all three props in the water doin thier job making speed. Some times being the biggest has its advantages. Last year I was doin 82 I gotta figure outwhere the other 4 mph went.

Both he and the pumpkin were heading into the river, I was heading out.....so who's running away from the big water????

Besides, you should be happy. Saved you from having to tow him all the way home from nyc

Well at least you know that part for sure, when we got into the snot you turned around and ran home while we kept going Remember that was the day I had enough time to go in the cabin, take a leak, unpack the camera and still have enough time to shoot pics of you running torwards us.
The chip is not afraid of the big water

You're starting to sound like Panther. "My boat rides better" if I have the stones to stay on it, faster is faster no matter how little the boat may be in the water

I really don't care who's faster that's why it's so sweet when the resin bucket gets a spanking. Once you take a ride in that cat you'll understand some of what I mean when your cruising a twice the speed of the pumpkin.

If you want to find that 4mph put the VDO speedo back in the boat

I don't care who's faster either it all depends on who's got the bigger "set"

The speedo part is funny.
I can't wait to ride in the cat, if I'm gonna be breakin the speed of sound there better be a better driver than me at the helm.

One thing I'm not is stupid.

Except for the bolster that blew out. He say's it was because the wood rotted out but with such a high quality rig I doubt it.

You're right, I did turn around. The "rev limiter" kicked in and wanted to go back home. Good thing it did though because I blew a drive the next weekend...

It didn't kick in though when you and I ran at the end of the season before I took the boat out of the water in the Northeast winds.
