thats ONLY because I was too busy dodging CRAZY FRAN who kept trying to run 3 feet off the side of my boat so I kept slowing down going around him to the other side where he would CROWD me once again.
After what happend to high life I was trying to be a little more cautious on the throttles and with personal space.
I ran JUST FINE against all those boats with alot MORE HP on tap than I had (how many had only 600 HP) and placed ahead of alot of boats including the newer Blue and white CIG! He did try and pass me in the no wake zone pulling in though for show.lol
There weren't too many boats ahead of us in montauck when I pulled in the harbor. BIOTCHES!
SUCK MY OB AZZ!

I forgot to ask... Did anyone else have any issues getting the PR sticker they issued off their boat?
Instead of using a vinyl label and a removable adhesive, the stupid fu@ks used a cheap azz paper label with a semi permanent adhesive. Once I finally started getting mine to come up, it took a section of clear-coat with it! I lost about 1 or 2 sq in. of CC before I realized what was happening. The rest of the label took me about 25 minutes to get off w/o further damage.
If you guys haven't removed that label, be very careful when you do!

Mine is polycarbonate, I'm glad I didn't stick it there! Not to mention, why limit visablity??? Although, some of us have a full greenhouse and the impact of having that big label there would be unnoticable! 
For the $400 they couldn't even throw in docking, lunch, a cheesy tee shirt, nothing. Well, other than an entrance fee with an attitude, so do you really think they will reimburse me for their F-up??? Hahaha, yeah right.
I had a good time (due to the fellow participants, not the poorly run event), but I choose to get reimbursed by keeping my money in my pocket the next time around... and the time after that, and the time after that.

My fishin motas were running at middle or better all day and with the heavy Iron I am just fine with that!
BTW my boats a 92 those were 2011'S And I could buy 2 of mine for the cost of one of those!
Plus I can actually have more than 3 people on mine at a time with out SPOONING eachother.
