Just when we finally get a boat to meet Ross out at 'The Spot' and do 12oz curls all day...He goes and gets this boat that likely won't be at 'The Spot' EVER! LMAO! I guess I'll be leaving to head to the sandbar early so your not there and gone before we get down there!

Got it all cleaned up yet? Where do you park your cars when its in the driveway? LOL

Jesus... now I got one more to worry about.:D


Guess maybe not unless you man up and make Cumberland next year.. or I head up that way to play.:poke:


Good thing Yellowfiero has a broken down boat.. or I'd get an ulcer:p

Oh, and whats this talk of Dogschool actually breaking in a motor??? I thought his throttle only worked wfo or idle.. figured it worked more like a switch or sumpthin:rof:
 
Nice boat. I cant wait till I get a bigger one:thumb:

maybe its broken, maybe its fixed and sitting in my neighbors marina waiting to be picked back up. Maybe I am waiting on some more parts from MK to get me into the upper 80's to low 90's:poke: You know if I move down to FL, I will have all year to get the boat setup right and test:)

:lol: Is it breaking it in or just breaking it :lol:
 
Good luck with the new ride. I bet it is more comfortable than the
Starflite.

I really like my Flite. On the other side of the ladder, the wife only says
"SLOW DOWN". She screams eveytime I get the motor over 4000. :brickwall:

Needless to say, She screams alot. :banana::banana:

All in all, You have a real nice ride. Enjoy! :cheers:
 
Stopped by Ross' house on my way thru town last night. Needless to say its not the place I would have liked to see his new toy for the first time, but it was good to see him for the few minutes I had. (Thanks for the beer bud!)

The pictures in this thread do that boat NO justice. Its a very VERY nice boat, and it was very well taken care of! I can't wait to hear it while I'm ridding in it someday, its very impressive looking for sure! :poke: :thumb:
 
thanks erick;) trust me you will get a hell ride out on torch one day next summer when its rough:cheers: you will be AMAZED as to how this hull handles with the right power :drool: and if you get up here in the next 2 weeks it might be a 6pack ride on the bay:bigthumb: but hury- the weather is looking like its going to sleep pretty quik:yell:
