I have been searching for quite some time now.I know you are all on here dicussing the fun you had or fun that you will have at all the these poker runs or other boating events.I am not writing on here to put a damper on any of that. I say ride like the wind,full speed ahead enjoy you only live once. I was told by numerous people on sites that i have searched,if you need or want anything go to offshore only.com. They said if you didnt know it or have you would find it .What i need is a picture or pictures of Johnny (MUSTANG) Desousa.Either in the boat or out of the boat before the accident.I am his Aunt he has to younger brothers now 10 and 13 .Who would like a pic of him As well as the rest of the family.He so loved boats he was a kind generous free spirit young man who died doing what he loved.We all miss him greatly.So please if anyone out there has any pictures of him at the 2005 Smoke on the water poker run please let me know. I am willing to pay for the pictures if need be. Thank you for your time and godbless My email is [email protected]

bailey,

You came to right place. This place is like a HUUUGE family. As dysfunctional as we might be. :evilb: :drink: There are times we argue, times we laugh, times we are down right mean to one another. :( But in the end we also pull together collectively as a whole for each other. I am sorry for your loss. If it is any concelation I hope you and your family fell a little better that he passed doing what he loved. What we here on OSO all love so much. I am certain that if there is boating related photo of him out there, you will be sure someone here on OSO has it or can get it!

Best wishes and good luck.

bailey, hopefully you'll gte more info than I was able to find.

The XXX boat was one of the first I found in a picture but that wasn't it. You're right though, the color is hard to tell form the pics at the scene. The one pic of it at Sarasota (I think you confirmed that was the local) is the boat I'm 99% sure. I could never confirm the name though.

Good luck, and I'm sure soon you'll start getting more replies!
