Default Who all else has a relative that owns a Go Fast boat?

My Dad owns a 1996 Checkmate: Pulse 185 bowrider that has an Evinrude 175hp outboard. Top speed 60mph. That was my first go fast boat that I rode in, which was in 1997. From then on I had the need for speed for boating. I had shifted towards the offshore boats. I always been wanting to own a Baja and now I do.

We have approx 9 boats in the family. Pretty much all different styles. No one owns a Prius. We burn fuel and have fun doing it.

My ol man ( he's no longer with us but I'm sure upstairs being heavy on the throttle with something) and me where the only ones into performance boats -. I don't like the term go fast boats. LOL.
