Thanks, guys! That’s really nice to hear.
The first run on Saturday (87) was my first time ever running the boat for speed. I aired it out more on Sunday as I got more comfortable with it. Ran 88 and 88, then went to the dock to clear all the weight out of it. lol Had some extra just-in-case stuff on the boat. Went out and ran an 89 then. Got too greedy and blew the props out after that for an 86. That was a shame, but it was a great experience while learning the boat. Went back to the start for a final attempt at 90 but they shut down after the boat in front of me at 2:58pm. That was frustrating, but if you can’t hit 90 in 5 tries, that’s the driver’s problem.
We’re obviously not running the fastest boats for the power, but I had a blast showing off the 33 and, as Robert Goulet says, doing the event a freaking service.
Seriously, I really enjoyed friends and family running vicariously with me and enjoying the show. Brad Harrington and I both ran 87 on Saturday and talked some trash. I told him they should let us do an old school drag race next year.
