Thanks goes out to Morgan of Sutphen boats for shooting the pics!! It was also great to have Rich Sutphen Jr there to see all the Sutphen's together!! The last pic show Morgan and T-Mone geting used to their future race boat!!:D:D Thanks to everyone that came. It was a blast!

Morgan, great job with all the pics. Really shows everybody what a great time it was.
Hey Dan, how fast is the Nopper Marine boat ? What power? Its a really cool boat and looks to run good in the vid.

how many of those sutphens are going to make a return appearance for the CT river run?

gonna be 63 and sunny!

I dont think they've ever propped it for all out top end but it runs low to mid 80's easily now. Power is prob in the high 600's. They didnt dyno the motor before it was put in.

updated with all pics....

Hey Frank, You guys came back just after we ran over what would you call the waves on the way back 2 to 3's?

I always have a hard time judging so since we were close in timing I figure you saw the samewater we saw?

On the way home it was 1 ft or less IMO what would call those Kreed?

After we went round Shelter it was stacked up in the middle. Pretty big ****. I'd say real 4's in the middle of the sound.

Jeff, I would say 2 footers. Alittle calmer in spots. Frank called me when he got back to Old Saybrook and said 4 footers on his way back. We left a couple hrs later than him, so it must have died down. Still a fun ride.

Jeff,

Big enough to be fun, but not too big to make it miserable!

On our way over we were in 2' - 2.5', with an occasional 3' thrown in for good measure. On our way back, most of that was around 1' - 2', the bigger water being closer towards the LI side. What made it interesting was the fact that there were some that had pretty inconsistent spacing... both of you guys caught some nice air a few times coming back! :drink:

Nice pics Dan, thanks for sharing! :cool:
