The sprinklers will help, but the real secret to yeller boat speed is installing kevlar/plutonium stump jumpers on your drives. That's how you get the extra lift and put some air on the hull of a yeller boat. The plutonium content is tricky. If you get too much, it can melt a prop blade or even cause an entire drive to fall apart. But, you'll be damn fast as long as it holds together.

Maybe I can spread some light on the subject since I own a yeller boat as chewy states. 1. Not a lot of reason for smack talk if you were at Cumberland's Thunder Run results speak for themself.
2. As Chewy has commented on about the sprinkler drives it's true Kevlar/Plutonium is the key to any stump jumping equipment. 3. Always being on the cutting edge and pressing the envolope, I must have added to much plutonium to the mix. Here is the results.
I will let you figure the cost for I already know!

Where did you hear such a rumor? We actually do have a pretty kick a$$ band but unless Pat is pulling a Houdini I am unaware...

Sure just go to www.tnpowerboat.com and download the form and send it in... You could also call 615-712-7209 and talk to Tanya! she is keeping track of all the entries and slips.

We should have a ton of boats coming in Thursday and Friday as I have been on the phone with guys from TN, IL, OH, KY, SC, GA, and IN just to name a few. The weather is going to be great this weekend and it will be a great time. Registration is open after 9AM Friday and Saturday morning at The Rudder at Anchor High Marina.

Always!
A good time in Nashville.

Will there be a lunch run like last year?

We locked down and tied up downtown.
