We were outside Bridgeport on Sunday for the poker run and couldnt believe that Maximus was at least 5 miles ahead of any other boat like Redwind 46 skater/1400 hp, Color me bad 36 skater 150 mph...Outerlimits and the rest of them. Now I can understand the v boats getin beat but if these Cats cant run in a 2' chop what good are they??? That Maximus is bad ass...had to be goin 120 when it passed us with or without an engine hatch!!!!

Sure you were outside of Bridgeport...

Maybe he's just a better navigator.
Or maybe he just knew the route to take so he wouldnt have to slolom the lobster pots.

I was outside bridgeport as well but it seemed like i was the only spectator in a performance boat. At least i didnt see anyone else. From what i remember the cig was first followed by the nor-tec then the big skaters. From my prospective it look like the cats were riding great just not as hard. Both were really goin though.

I was in a 46 Searay just west of the channel

That was a pretty big two foot chop. I guess the 1/2 million boaters out on sunday didn't make any waves .

I'm sure Ozzy was close by..
Johnny O , would have been right there if he did not loose a power steering belt. 42 GTX.
Color Me Bad had a little motor trouble.

TSTGUN next time get out there and join in the fun in the 2'chop

I was running full throttle in my 25' er....in the back of the pack....way in the back...but it was the sh*t...I had a blast...felt almost like real offshore...

I was in a 46' searay and my gun lives in Miami But it I would of loved to run in it!

I thought the conditions were pretty mild. I ran flat out in my top gun the whole run. I can't speak as to what it would be like at 110+ in those conditions, but I ran 80-85 just about the entire run. There were few times I had to back off at all in conditions like that.

Stormrider was sitting in the back of the boat with the arm rest down, I thought he was just working on his tan....

Seriously, I thought the conditions were very mild - at least for the speeds we were running and how my boat handled it.
