Let's see your best rooster tail pics

Gus

Looking good Gus, real nice pics of the Trimate. I'm ready to see the reborn Trimate on the water now. How much longer do you think it's going to be before you test run that tricked out hull. I hope you worked through the paint problem ok. That had to stink after all the hard work of sanding and preping. Thanks for the wicked pics Gus, now let's see the rest of you hot rods jump in!
 
wicked, been to darn hot here to finish sanding the crap off. 95-100 during the day makes the garage a sad place to play.
 
Here's my starflite at about 70 mph with a little positive trim.

Rooster - I was 49mph on gps had a 70 lb sand bag in the nose lol thought I needed balest weight ( not ) I was a 8000 rpm in this pic ( found out , that the cause of the blow outs were the prop slipping on the hub, I'm sending it out for repair ) going to a 26 pitch cleaver tomorrow ( Shane thanks for posting my pic )
 
Kip's pics

Do ya think Kip has a rooster tail pic or two that he will share with us? How about it Kip, we all enjoyed the "big air" shot that you posted. Do you have a few rooster tail pics for us to see?

Thanks Fred!!

Nice rooster Matt. I like the sun set in the back ground. You must have been going in for the day in that shot or was that really the sun rise and you were just heading out?
 
A shot of my neighbors' '92 Starliner.

My tilt ram doesn't seem to be up to the task of holding the up the motor at WOT. It always gets pushed back onto the trim rams so i can't get the speed I'm after or a decent roost.... :(
 
Starliner

Nice pics Rob, thanks for posting them. Now we need about 100 other members to jump on board. How about all you inboard owners. We want to see some pics from the I/O crowd. I know that yall have some good action shots to show us. How about the Checkmate jets. Do we have any jet boats owners out
there? We know they can spit the big old crazy tail at the drop of a dime.
