Took a ride on Wild Thing in Key West.... that thing ate up the rough and we were running in some pretty big water.
Well what kind of numbers did it run? I know Scot has something new up his sleeve for next season

Wow no response on the speed. Must be top secret. I know Scot can't take a solid crap until he finds out the number.

Sorry Frank, just seeing this. We weren't doing a speed run when I was on the boat. We ran out to Boca Grand for the FPC island party with a group of boats since we weren't 100% sure where we were going. On the way back we were running with 5 people in the boat w/out vests on, decent size water and had a few drinks in us (at least I did anyway)...not really the ideal set-up for a speed run.

It's good to see they are finally getting to enjoy the boat.

Chris, you and Susan are always a pleasure to see, great time down there. Sorry I didn't make it back out Sunday, my body couldn't do it another night!

It was snotty the entire week, but for the most part boat ran flawless.

Boat ran fast, it's not a secret... haven't really stretched it out completely yet...All in all, very happy with the setup, it eats up the big water like nothing I've ever seen...as Chris knows, the acceleration is brutal..it'll throw you back in your seat...I wasn't going to push it as Chris said, we were running with a pack of 15 other boats (3-5ft Seas)..not one of us really knew where we were going! Great times and great to see you guys down there! Anchoring that SOB in a 15-20mph wind with current was a blast ha!

Playing with a few other things in setup...but it's very solid and cruises beautifully in the mid range.

Monday we ran back in 6-8ft Seas w/ Jo-el in his 52SV and a pack of about 20 other boats...running 65-80 not even pushing it and it kept saying "Give me more"...

Key West was a blast, everyone was a great time!

Chris, here's a shot they nabbed of us runnin down on the bulk head the day we came back from the raft up.
