65 to 80 miles would be my guess

cigrocket,

Bill is correct -- it is a 36 mile long de lake and we travel the entire length for the run - figure 80 miles for the run itself.

Re: 2006 Pirates Run
 

Carny,
I took your advise about the Mr. T. starter set. You hit the nail on the head! I was pricing velvet jumper suits on the Fountain website and they were outrageous! I picked up a nice imitaion velvet or as Wal-mart calls it valve-et for a tenth of the price!! :evilb: I also managed to sneak into the automotive section and to my suprise :eek: there were piles of Fountain steering wheels. I didn't even have to look at an application chart, the sign just said: FOR FOUNTAIN POWER BOATS 1985-200? :D $11.95 :p :drink:

I think it has triple 625 hp Joey Griffin upgraded 500 EFI's - not sure on that though -

guess he doesn't want to get beat this year for fastest pirate in a vee :cool: Puts me out of the competition for sure now :( At least I will still kick your A$$ though :evilb: :D

Yeah...I got the pics. Looks like one bad A$$ machine! Oh yeah, about you kicking my a$$, that maybe true when your drivin' that thing you call a resin bucket. Just watch out when we belly up to the bar old timer! :drink: :D I'll put a hurtin' on you you feel at 8:00 p.m. the next day! :eek: :D
O.h. yeah, one more thing, I know your on a odd/even year schedule to clean your boat, just thought I better remind you it's 06'. :p

Re: 2006 Pirates Run
 

who's buying gas for the 42? :eek: :D

Re: 2006 Pirates Run
 

The way I hear it , Yaw bought the pro chargers off the welcraft and has them on the new 42. It should be a good year.

Re: 2006 Pirates Run
 

:eek: I did not know that about Yaw :eek:

Holy Crap Batman !!!!! It's going to be another tight call on who gets top honors - I think it was within 0.2 mph last year -- it should be a really good show :D :evilb:
