I don't know how we are still doing it:eek: Cold and Snow.:eek:

Couple from the Checkmate Owner's Rally I attended last weekend at Lake Cumberland...

Nice pics! You must of been busy SPANKING all those Checkmates?

Nick,

on the second pic, what boat is that with the headers popping out? Nice!

Noli, thats my friend Brian's Enchanter... he just built a 383 for it and is going thru some learning curves with the new setup... I helped him change the alt on Sat when everyone else was headin out and ran with him while we were trying to catch the group... he broke the motor mount loose from the hull and I had to tow him in to Jamestown.. then he and his crew got to ride back to Conley in my 24 to get the trailer.:drink:

I wish I could say yes.... but there was a couple of really serious boats there... one 30ft that is powered by 1500hp and has a #6 drive- its a solid 100+ boat. Another couple Checks that run in the low 80s were there also, one is a 30ft and the other is 24, or 26, I think? I didn't get to run with everyone on Sat, due to helping Brian out.. but from what I saw on Friday, the 24 can hold its own with most of em.

It was a great group of people with some nice hardware... those two 30s I saw are top notch... I didn't get to check out all the boats, though. I was the only Superboat there, but everyone really liked the boat.

Oh, and by the end of the day on Saturday 4 boats broke:eek: All due to mech problems... some rumors about a "Unfinished Business 2010" run in August somtime at Cumberland. I hope I can make that one too.:drink:

Couple of pics from the shootout on Cesars Creek this past weekend.. took the 21. Me and my gf onboard trying out a friends 28P bravo prop. We were runnin with Katt Nipp and his sweet Checkmate.. that is a very fast boat. I have to say, it was pretty awesome when he went by me... I was running 85 or so at the time and it didn't look like he was struggling too much.
