The support truck is for Billy. He can't get over 4400 rpm out of his engines. Thats Merc Smart Craft for ya.
If one motor is sick it makes all three sick.
Plus it didn't help him blowing that drive this weekend.
As for me come on down I'll buy the first round.
Until I find a blower it looks like thats the only boating I'm gonna be doing.

Sunday night coming back windy and a following sea Tina was gettin a little nervouse so I slowed down. I looked over at her and asked if she was gettin wet from the spray. She says no I'm alright. 2 minutes later I look up and a wall of water comes over the bow and fills the cockpit with water.
I 'd sware it didn't stop for 20 seconds. It was so much I was holdin my breath waitin for it to stop.
After that I didn't need to ask we were all soaked to the skin. I thought it was funny as hell but Tina had the last laugh she was the only one on the boat with a change of clothes.

Thats why me and Mike get along on the boat. He can't hear a friggin word a say.

Brett told me that we sounded good coming home Saturday!
When we got back to the dock I was asked if I was running 85, I said; no, only 80 or so...
I keep thinking there's something wrong with my GPS cause everyone thinks I'm going faster than I really am... or maybe they're going slower than they really are......

I don't need Tres. I needed some speed to get on top. Thats what I get for trying to make people comfortable.
Now as far as that blower bearing. I'm gonna blame you two for puttin the evil eye on my boat.
I'll tell Chuck where to send the bill.
