Yeah it was a good time, but the ride over made me realize that I need to prioritize getting more power...I think I saw a Carver pass me 
Damnit.
We got some food and hung out @ the bar for awhile, then drew the line when the band played "when a man loves a woman". That music was terrible, brings the whole mood down. You guys were M.I.A. so we headed out, and the sound was so flat we floated for a couple beers and watched some boats go by.

I ended up staying....it was crankin until about 4am. Quite a good crowd! Great seeing everyone, that was a pretty GREAT time, not going to lie. Just hauled it out, back to work....
It's a great night when the bartender goes, here's your tab @ 330am, and it's 10$
with the exception of me fighting gravity once again and losing.... ha, cheers guys, CPBA Great times!

Hard to beat your tab though! 
I had a great time as well, and thanks again for the ride over... gotta love the ride of that 42!
BTW, you might have lost the battle with gravity, but at least you didn't split your gord open... you smacked your head pretty good on that other fence on your way down!

Hahaha, yea Pat. What a good day. I actually forgot about the fall off the fence! Hahahaha, funny sh!t! You handled it like a pro though. When we left, I knew you were in it for the long haul! Congrats on the 3:30 AM finish line. Your a better man than I.

Look at the bright side, at least you have plenty of prop to grow into.

Yea that's what I figured when I bought them. Got the bigger ones for next to nothing, and when I first got them it was just as fast on top as with the 23s. I actually got my best MPH out of the bigger ones and they picked up my cruise speed a couple mph. Now she's having trouble pulling them. Even if I put the smaller ones back on to gain a few RPMs it's still gonna be the slowest boat out there. So the only logical answer is to get more power to spin em, right?

Unfortunately in a couple of weeks i'll be trying to figure out how to pay for a wedding and 2 weeks in the Caribbean 
Could have a pretty decent set of motors for the same amount....
Also have to pull one of the motors before next season, the tranny slips pretty bad when you push it. It broke loose 3 times going through the Gut the other day. Needs a rebuild/replacement. GREAT
Plus need hydraulic steering very soon. Where is the boat upgrade fairy?

You are gonna get a bunch of money from your guests of the wedding. Here is how I see it. You bought your girl a diamond ring(thousands of dollars), then you are getting married (also thousands of dollars) and you are legally saying you won't ever have sex with another women (you actually say you will die first...you know the death due us part thing) then you go a 2 week vacation that I am sure is in the $7,000-$10,000 range. So here is my point the money is all yours to spend how you see fit. Let me know how it goes.
