Another thanks going out to Steve and the crew that organized this poker run! We enjoy the atmosphere and people that attend, and as always, we are looking forward to next year's run.
Thanks again, from the crew of the CROWD PLEASER!

We should not forget OSO (Steve) for making the long trip up and supporting us. Thanks for the suntan lotion and coolies, every thing helps. Boat looked great and hope you had a great time. See you again next year.

I was humming right along at 63MPH when the port motor made some funny noises- kind of like bolts in a coffee can.. 
Shut it down, didn't know where I was so was going to idle back to Jordan Point. I made it 1-2 miles until a cool dude in a Baja with some sponsor stickers on it told me Smithfield Station was closer. I waited for traffic to pass, spin in a circle to airate my good prop/motor and was able to run 40MPH on one motor to Smithfield. At this time I indulged in the cooler since I didn't have to worry about being a Captain the rest of the day.
I jumped on Horse Play 46 Black Thunder w/trips for the rest of the trip. Sunday Horse Play ran me back to Smithfield and I ran my boat on one motor back to Jordan Point.
Sucks but that is what warranties are for!! I was a tad bit banged up from getting in the cooler too long on Friday and back in it too soon on Saturday but had fun none the less. I would have liked to have been more social but didn't want to piss anyone off or break any thing either so kept myself on restriction a bit..
Nice meeting everyone, thanks to Pat @ AT for the honorary member AT shirt and so on.

To everyone else... WHAT A BLAST!! This was also my first poker run (as first mate on Waynofzr's Cig) and it has surely started an addiction that I think is going to be hard to kick!!
Wayne... I'm sure we can find plenty of stufff between us to hock for fuel!!
See you all out there soon!!
