100% chit talking and excuses, The water is not as com as it
looks instead of chop you get big long rollers. The rollers are worse than chop,
I hit a double roller in the toon and flooded the boat. Everything was
floating in the boat.

Water in the back of the toon after the roller hit

Was in no way skeared of the 251, I was having fun running dogschool in his. I know I have the acceleration and maybe a little more top but he would get me in any type of rough. I did really want to go out and have some fun sunday am and run with Ross for a little bit. I even started down toward where he was! But to be honest we were tired and I know they were also so when I saw nick and the superboat, we turned around and had a high speed run back to the trailer! I think that was the most fun run I had the entire weekend! We were running at least 65+ ....Uh, I meant 40;) for quite a stretch and through some nice sized rough:surf:. I also got Megan enjoying going airborne on that run, every time we did, she started laughing like a young school girl!! There is nothing more fun than running a boat to the full potential that it can!

I found one more pic

Thanks to everyone who posted pics and the video, looks like a great time with great people. It was cool to have the pontoon boat (shade , beer , burgers) as base camp in the middle of your raft up.
 
Looks like everyone had a good time. Wish I could have made it! Alot more outboars this time. I only have 1 question, were there more gallons of gas consumed or beer?:lol:
 
Did a lot more running this year than last year. With all the break downs of 2010, we were limited in boats and moral:brickwall:. This year we had a group that did some running and the group that did the drinking. My guess is there was more alcohol consumed, but way more fuel consumed...............except for that damn superboat that started making fuel as we were rafted up:eyecrazy:
 
Koooool! I do not know what the future holds right now with my dad, I can tell a difference in him from day to day, but if all goes well, I will be there next year! Just to much going on right now both with family, finance's and working just about every weekend. It makes it hard to plan anything.
