Webb sorry meant black hull.

V21 you are right we were loading the boat and people were flying right bye, remember those markers say no wake.

It wasn't me.... My stbd B1 decided it liked neutral better after about a mile or 2, so I had to pull the boat and drive 2 hours home. The good news is no wheels came flying off the trailer on the way home.

Anyone know the Silverton cruiser out there today? I think they were in the run last year. Someone onboard snapped a shot of us jumping the wake (not in the no wake zone!) - I would LOVE to get that photo. Thanks.

BTW Rich, I'll have 6 on my boat. Thanks!
Thanks for offering to let us ride with you today - I really appreciate it. My son can't believe I said "no thanks" to that offer :-)

Just showed my dad the video of the Smoke On The Water poker run:

"I don't mean to rub it in but here's what you could have had..." lol

Dont know but we were tied up at Harbor Park and a guy in a sport fish throwing about a 4 foot wake came through at full tilt.

On another note, who was the guy in the Yellow/red Sunsation?? He ran both ways with us and has a ton of pics.
