Ride is soft, no beating, just flies a little bow high at times with the twin 502's. That little bit of film is no indication of how this boat rides, that was just 100 wakes from boats on all sides. The single 28 rides rediculously well, that thing will fly so level.

Damn! Looks like a bunch F N idiots to me. If you flew by me sittin still at speeds like that you might have an appointment with Mr. Colt 45. No wonder pokerruns are becoming uninsurable.

LOL I'm sure you had a great time!

Take a lesson from all the critics on this site and others... if you're not going to wear a PFD & kill switch lanyards then it might be in your best interest to not post the vid & draw attention to yourself in a negative light.

As for me, I like all types of vids and appreciate the post!

Hey i'm not taking any offense to any comments made. Back when I filmed this close to 11 years ago now <---- damn seems like yesterday, guess what, you couldn't find a single boat with anyone wearing PFD's and more than likely not wearing lanyards. Hell, even during the 1997 Lincoln Harbor Hudson run, the official pace boat carrying the poker run operating officials, not a single person wearing a PFD. **** even the 50ft Hustler that won "king of the hudson" did not have a single pfd wearing occupant. Now i'm not saying this was safe now or then, i mean **** now i wouldn't even think of running wild without one on nor would my father. Now for coming so close to that fishing boat, that was a rarity, i don't remember why we came so close, but my father is 99% of the time one of the safer drivers out there.

JIGSAW, hey man it was getting super dead in here so i figured i'd give you guys something to watch or something

WOW Great Video to show before a Poker run on what not to do.........This is why Permits get rejected from the Coast Guard and why Insurance is $10,000 for the day! Still not right but getting close to someone running in a Poker Run and getting to some possibliy with a young kid fishing is not cool...Even if it was 11 yrs ago, common sense didn't start yesterday.

I wouldn't pass someone that close (as in, that fishing boat) going 10-15mph, let alone ballz out like that.
