Took a flight down to St Petersburg FL to check out this Bronco and found FX's Superboat beached!:D Someone through him a rope!:D

Re: My next boat: Y2k!
 

Nice Bronco, I had one a long time ago !!!! FX-10 must be bi coastal with his boats, I found his Jersey Ride last week.:eek: !!!! lol !!! :evilb: :evilb:

Re: My next boat: Y2k!
 

Hey, he took my fire wood!:D

Re: My next boat: Y2k!
 

That sailboat looks just like the one we saw New Year's outside of Maximo Park...:D :D :D The weather looks about the same as it was New Year's day too. Cloudy and rainy. :mad:

(At least New Year's Eve day was nice. :cool: )

Re: My next boat: Y2k!
 

Thanks for a truly great thread. Special thanks to FX10 for the picture story. Looks like some incredible craftsmanship. I also like the steps to access the front deck. I think I've seen these on Cigarette Top Guns as well.

Re: My next boat: Y2k!
 

Welcome to Superboat. Alot of great reading here as you see. Loyal good harted people too.

Re: My next boat: Y2k!
 

Welcome to the SB site! Rick (FX10) has got it going on, the SB build is awesome, and you're right - the steps up front are one of the greatest features - especially if you let your bikini-clad crew handle the bow lines......

Re: My next boat: Y2k!
 

It's always fun watching the felions walk up the steps too!

Re: My next boat: Y2k!
 

Hello everyone! Just checkin in. Been workin my but off lately. We actually had some nights in the twentys! Stuck a shop light in the Y2K just in case. I did buy the Bronco in Florida, having it shipped as I type. My son keeps pokin me to buy a ProCharger for the 598. I wish, but not until Rob walks by me!
(if he ever wakes up!)

Re: My next boat: Y2k!
 

Hey Faster, welcome back! 20's??? Wow! I got out on Dec 31, but we've had sloppy wx since, so I'm doing some maintenance and finally trying to finish that stereo install. We plan to make some of the OSS events this year as support again.


SUPERAIR - that Phantom looks cool! Sign me up.......

Re: My next boat: Y2k!
 

Finally doing the stereo install??? You had your boat for 2 yrs. I thought you put it in when you bought the boat. I remember seeing a sub on the boat.

The sub was probably a rubber display sample. Like those cardboard TV's ya see in the furniture stores. LOL

Knowin Krack most likely!!!

How'd you know!?? LOL. No, I never did get the $%@#$# stereo install finished, but I have actually cut holes now - hope to finish in March. Up until now we've been too busy using the boat to stop and do an install, and all my buddies had systems to listen to when we stopped and rafted. But its time now, as RA wants HER tunes, LOL :D

I'll do the install...... Just cover my airfare. ;)

Damn Krack, you wife must have alot of Honey Doo's! Put your foot down! Get the boat done.

Above is a link to a video I made this weekend of the Desert Storm Poker run. Sorry it's fuzzy. I will take any suggestions for next time.

Cool vid! Suggestions? Boat>bikinis>boat>boat>bikinis>bikinis>bikinis>boa ts>bikinis
:D

Stereo's done! thumping along nicely, and didn't even lose any speed for the added weight! Big smile....listening to Kid Rock at 70 doesn't suck.....:evilb:

Krak, your funny! I have another section of video I think is better but just need time to get it up.
Tom

You racing Tom?

Wanted to but, I was looking at the regulations, they want a bow rail on the front of the boat for safety. That ain't going to happen!

hello everybody this is Feeds The Need i run my 24 in the city island Thross Neck area also i go aroud the city well see you on the water

Tom, How come the Lavey crafts don't have them, or the faster big boats.

I'm not sure Rick, maybe it's not enforced??? Here is a link to the rules:

NONSKID on decks???:eek:

Welcome! Start a thread with some pics of your ride.:drink:

FX,
Team Laveycraft said I could get by on some of the tech requirements. Brian said he is bringing me a set of race numbers!:D and loan me the race jackets, helmets ect... We'll see what happens. Now do I really want to compete with these guys???????? Someone have a 24hr offshore race instruction course?:D

If you need a navigator for sunday let me know Tom... I was going to hang out and watch from the shore this year as we (myself, brother, dad) were all too lazy to bring a boat out from Havasu.

Good Luck if you decide to run!!!

PM me you cell number, we'll see what happens. I'll probably chicken out anyway.

Thanks

Faster, what hp are you running ??? What is your best speed todate on your bravo xr ??? Thanks Gary

801HP and 94mph or so. I have only tried to get top speed once without all the gear and crew in the boat. It may be a tad faster, I don't know.

Thanks Faster, what drive ratio is your xr ???? Do you launch the waves much ( hang time ) ??? Are you at sea level with you speed #s.

1:50 gears. I do get out of the water often on the Pacific. I do alot of throttleing as required to go easy on the powertrain when launching and re-entering.
The speed I quoted was at Havasu in 90+ temps, fresh water and I think they are round 600ft above sea level.

Tom, how many hours on your XR ???
