10-4 to that, I'm staying at the dock. I was out last weekend and it was the like the shark hunt scene from the movie JAWS.

Be safe all.

I had a kick ass 4th of July here in Sarasota. The town goes crazy as the offshore powerboat races come to town. Going out the pass(inlet for you guys up north) I was follwing a 28ft sea ray who was taking a pounding in mixed 3-4 footers and doing only 16 or so knots. I told my girlfriend to hold onto me as I passed them doing about 27 knots. Man, the boat just got ON TOP OF THE STUFF and rode like a dream as she danced wave to wave. My woman commented and asked why the other boat just didn't go faster if that made the ride smoother. I just gave her a smile and said, your in a Sea Craft baby! The new bracket I put on probably had something to do with keeping my stern in the water as I cut through the slop. Returning North in the gulf there was a moderate chop of 1-2ft but I was able to maintain 32kts at 4900 rpm's and those 115hp 4 strokes just hummed for about an hour till we got home. FYI cutting my motorwell out and adding a bracket dosen't just add fising room for us, it's an ideal place for a deck chair offering a smooth ride for your bikini clad girl.

Hey brian, Hatteras Pass? Oregon Pass? Rudee Pass? Just doesnt sound right . How about Sebastion(sp) or Jupiter ??? [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] J/K lol.

Same thing happened to me on Sunday except the victem was a 23 mako. I was heading out the "pass" into about a gazzillion boat wakes, Pilot boat wakes etc and first the Mako overtakes me while I was running 20 knots, soon he was running about 15 knots as he faded way behind and I just maintained my 20 knots with barely a "jostle". Now Iwill go eat me some grits and have some good 'ol NC bar-B que for lunch. Squeeze em easy !!

I support the 3 boat theory, a big Davis, a Seacraft, and a polarcraft !!
