[zstevens]

[83PREDICTOR]

Check16, were you been? How things goin?

[dingelbarries]

Dont be too jealous fellas, I lived in Orlando for 2 years. This time of the year is fantastic, But come June, July and August you can hardly breath!! The heat is unbearable, there isnt enough wind even on a motorcycle to cool you down! Its best to be a SNOW BIRD if you can swing it!

Nice pics anyhow, just enough inspiration to keep the juices flowing. Thanks

[TLB]

Great action shots !

I'll take sand dunes over snow drifts any day.:pEven though I have ridden Snowmobiles before.Thats a blast.:thumb:
zstevens,My little Check was anchored just out of view in that pic.It's on an island that used to be a military base during the Spanish/American war.Lots of neat history there.It was used to defend the southern entrance to Tampa Bay.

[WILDMAN]

Tony, we're running the southern St. Johns this Sat with a bunch of boats. Wanna go? Starts at Lake Monroe next to I-4.

[83PREDICTOR]

It was a perfect day and a awesome ride. Trying to follow those Liberators down the curvie river was not easy but was a lot of fun.

Thanks WILDMAN for the great day.

[ross]

sweet pics!!!! i would have to pass on a ride along w/ those boats! my '87 would look like sh*t next to those machines!!!!!

[groucho]

Ok now somebody needs to help me with the identity of those boats. White boat w/the 2.5..Is that an Action or a Hydrostream Ventura ( cool!) ??

And what about the Yellow boat ( mostly). Is that a Mirage River Racer? Because I can't read what's supposed to say " Mirage " on the rear cowl.

GREAT SHOTS!!

GROUCHO..

[TLB]

Great pic's , looks like it was a awesome day too.

[rock-n-roll]

Man those are some nice boats, great pictures check16. :drool:I was at the river today and saw a checkmate just like Big Red's. The next time I see that checkmate again I'll find out who it is and get some pictures.

[WILDMAN]

It was kinda cool though! Only got up to 85 degrees and we had to deal with the sun and no wind all day! I could'nt even sail home!

GROUCHO,83PREDICTOR asked the same thing and the guy told us he thinks it's an Action copy.The yellow boat is a Mirage river racer.:drool:The quality of my pics suffered a little it's very hard to keep the lens clean with all the water mist in the air.

[groucho]

Thanks....I don't the quality..( for my money anyway..) suffered at all!

[83PREDICTOR]

Thats funny, my lil roostertail doesn't look that big from inside the boat. (thats me in the back)

What a fun day. Great Pics, I wish I would have remembered my cam.
