OK, at 74.1 GPS I'm determined to get into the "Very Fast Class". Gonna have to chase down the five blade, drain the fuel to vapor status, shuck all the Fattowels and extra PFDs, and leave RA on shore with a radar gun .......

Best ever was 75.3. With my new motor I'm estimating 77-78.

OK...This is GOOD! THIS IS WHAT BASH WANTS TO HEAR!
-Good honest speeds...along with the most important humor.

-Bash is going with his documented 75.9 for entry.
-Looks like we got lots of competition in the "VERY FAST CLASS".
-Even a SLUG CLASS competitor. Come on...I know there must be more of you's.
