Superboats at the Patchogue races today, and I dont mean racing in the races
We started counting the ones we saw while we were waiting for the races to start, we stopped at 25.
I had about 5 people pull up or pass by were I was anchored and we would chat for a few minutes and all anyone would say is how much they loved their SB's!
Good day at the races all around!

We saw two....one was idling by us only about 30 feet away, but the guy and the woman he was with were screaming at each other about finding someone, so we left them alone
The other one went by during the third race, a nice one with what looked like a blue and yellow stripping on it

what the hell is it with Patchogue, 2 years ago MSD box goes out just before the race, Last year MSD box goes out just befor the Race, this year brand new Aeromotive Fuel Pump (not cheap) stops pumping just before the Race, I dont get it, smacked pump with a wrench at it came back on. The started the race while I was climping out of the bildge, by the time I got my helmet on we were 1/2 mile behind, started 12th finished 6th
