I sent my buddy out to get the names of the roads you turn down to get to my house. If you have any problems let me know.

whats next? need checks?

i told the captain not to show up tonight, cause he nearly killed me last night, hurt bad today. even missed the friday night flight, you know the stress relieving after the work week fri afternoon ride, the 1 that actually creats a little stress with the adrenalin overdose, and fun kind of fear. i push my check to the limit, in the 1-2' chop with my 3 friends in the back seat for trim, and its solid fly, smooth as silk for me, but my boys in the back are getting that weightless feeling & ive seen my friend hart do handstands holding onto the "oh**** bar", with the big cooler full of ice and beer floating in the air with him dumping water on him, and the other 2-4 in the back are locked in under the sides holding onto the other oh **** bars ive bolted in, and we fly 12 gallons thru my grenade @7500rpm, and we aint afraid of no white caps. had to get my ride on land just then, thanks ill go after work tomorrow. ill get some check pics together from friends, about 6 within 5 miles of me every sunday at the beach and they are full blown rednecks, and wait till you see the crazy redneck in a 16' chincoteague scow w/3litre max after 12 cold ones and some whiskey. thats seaside. im bayside cause i love the big water and traveling lots of miles fast, and we got small hydrostreams, baby tunnel, 24 superboatw/3.4 grenade, and my next project, 28 superboat w/2 or 3 grenades. just want 70 in 5' chop. ill drink to that. im feeling better after 4 or 5. my friend has this 22 velocity w/ 300 v8, and he cant handle the smilemaker1 ill send some moving pics if i knew where to put them here.

heres a pic of me flying. its not very good, but the rides were. i cant figure out which to go in today. maybe an ocean run in the tunnel, as theres nothing like riding side to the swells in the trough with her bouncing on the pontoons like training wheels. then in 10 minutes ill be in the bay flying head to them in my check, getting that adrenalin overdose:thumb:

smilemaker 2

here we are on the 15 mile journey home from tangeir island, after picking up 5 lbs fresh picked crabmeat. other day we did it in 5 minutes and 15 gallons 91 octane @ 62 K RPM. jacked um up a little and getting 6800. friends eyeballs were hanging on springs and knees were knocking and they were deaf at the dock. my motor man put springs on my throttles so i cant hold a mixed drink and the throttles at the same time. ha ha i fixed that. just jacked my thunderbird seat up a little so i can drive with my knee. only trouble is that my drink gets blowed out of my cup if i go over 3 k rpm at about 50 mph. thats ok though, cause after about 2 minutes riding side too a 2' chop, i find that shots work better trying to calm the nerves. :cheers

way back

way back before i got any speed boats we started the damned fools club. here i am in my 15 flare w/ 48 spl practicing for the boat wheelie contest. i won the wave jumping event in the inlet. put her straight up in the air, when she came down, motor went 3 feet under, and shot back out like a torpedo. old flare would run 47 mph w/ a 48 special johnson. wait till you see us when we put the 200 on the 15 tunnel. :eyecrazy:

Can we get one for the North Carolina area...I know their are a lot of guys in the state with Checks and I would love to find out where they run and go out and play!!
 
I'd like to try to keep the areas fairly large if possible.

Give me some suggestions on what area this specific forum would cover and some name suggestions.

If there's interest in it, we'll do it. :)

thats ok, we'll fly alone

:brickwall::drool:i dont need any friends with checkmates, as ive always got the captain with me. i know what it is, you all boats shake their asses cause you dont know how to set the up, and im going to keep beating big motors w/ a 200 and what makes it worse, its got a 75 cover hahahaha. i might be embarrased on the way to the creek, but your tasting spray after, buddy. ill never get to put my 3 litre on unless one of you turn fool and try to beat my 200. only had 3 of them beat so far, and i dont know how many 200s we got left. this one beats 300s, so hurry up, and figure out how to make your boat ass stop wiggling, so i can have some competition.:bounce:
 
and by the way. i have a friend who i let beat me with a v4 one time, and now he got so scared that he moved to florida. why you think i let him beat me? because he lived near the cheapest whiskey on the east coast, and hed always bring me a 6pack of half gallons when he came by. winder, here boy, where you at? are you hiding from the smilemaker?
