Got a nice one of you Brad as you pass us by. Just missed the first couple of inches of your boat.

I'm sure it was on the hand outs we got, but they got tossed by mistake.

Hopefully the guy got a good one, he was flying next to me for a while.
That is a nice shot of your boat out there. I did not even see you running around on fox lake.

Nice picture. Was I that close to you or is that zoomed in? I try not to do flybys.
My friends and I in the boat had a blast!!! What a great group on the run. It was so organized and civil up and down the river. Although at 45 mph I was having a real hard time keeping the boat straight from all the waves. Cats bow steer real bad at slow speed in boat wakes.
Somebody told me they thought I was weaving to stop anyone from passing me. LOL.

Rob,

I am surprised you didn't see me... of course there were alot of other boats running around. I made a couple passes around so I could get lined up with the plane.

Yea that run down the river was interesting !!! I was getting pushed all over the place as we headed down. I tried to keep a good gap so when we got to the bridge it would not be a log jam. I don't think I went over 35 on the way down.

Coming back up the river I made sure I was in front so the guy in my boat could get some good video. He will post it on you-tube soon.

I must have missed you out there. I was in my buddys 23 baja. I did not end up taking mine out this time around. The river was crazy. I will be taking my boat next year for sure. Don't remember it being so rough in a smaller boat we were tossed around a lot.

Brad you were not that close about 50 feet away when you passed us. Here is the shot just before you were next to us. Not sure how fast you were going but after I snapped this picture I hit the button again and got the second one.
You might not like doing flybys but it was very cool to hear you run up behind us and flyby. I glad you did it so I could get that cool picture. I done think I was zoomed in much at all.

I looked back once and saw you at a 45 degree angle to the river.
