Saw it pulling out at the town ramp and would like to get a rough estimate on how many hours each day you wax that thing. Great looking (and sounding) rig.

I hope he got a lot of attention....he WAS supposed to be at the Narragansett Bay poker run this weekend.

He is excused...... as long as he told everyone that the new design banana logo decals .....give an extra 3MPH top end.

I/O .....It is a big block with a Bravo drive.

Boat is all black, deck, hull, bottom....with a low sport windshield. Black MYCO trailer.

Most of the credit goes to Nopper Marine of Massachusetts for the engine work.

Too bad he wasnt there to do the run. It was great meeting you this weekend Charlie. It was a pleasure having you aboard for the run from Newport. Hope you enjoyed your ride on the old Sutphen!!

Dan a big thank you to you and your dad for letting an old racer hang with the upcoming generation of racers.

You handled that boat very well......we need to get you out in some 10 footers though, to really break you in.

I still have some key chains for you and your dad....I'll see you guys at Fairhaven on the 4th.

Thanks again for your generous hospitality.

Im used to the rough stuff. We boat in it all the time. Not 10 footers all the time, but we've been in some big stuff. You did the real offshore racing and its great to see it making a comeback!! Maybe Fairhaven will give us some waves this year. Would love to run in the round LI race. We'll have to see when it gets closer. See ya soon,

Dan
