The rest have to wait until tomorrow, they're in my computer at work and in my buddy's camera.
Unfortunately, there was a terrible accident and my prayers go out to the families of the people who were involved. It was a sad day.

That CIG with twin 1075's would be fun to drive, not that the others woudn't !! :hammerhea

KROOZIN

We hit a small bird on Friday when we were out playing. Bounced off the canopy and through the headrests of the back seats. Good thing nobody was sitting in the middle rear, could have been ugly. I think we were doing a little over 100mph.
I think I might be getting fullface helmets. I sat in the rear seat on Saturday afternoon, and the wind is pretty violent back there at speed. Not to mention the safety factor.

Nice pics Kroozin,remines me of the poker run in Fort meyers. I think that Cig w/the 1075s is the one that was at the Miami boat show last year, No?

Your boat looks great Kroozin, looks like ya had a good time. Bummer on the accident, heard a bit about it but have not got all the details. To bad, I feel for the families involved. :(

Fonzo, it was actually the Outerlimits i believe wasn't it. If not, I did see the Outerlimits pic in the ones Kroozin' posted that was there at th boat show. The 39 me thinks. Never mind, just saw that you said Miami not LA, my bad. Feel too bad to wipe out my post though so am gonna post it anyways.

Hey Kroozin, do you know if that is Larry from Texas' old 46 Skater #333 repainted for the Herbst? Just Curious?

KROOZIN

Yes it is the old 333 boat, and what a shame!! I loved that paint job!!

That was a damn beautiful boat! I guess they must of scored a great deal to go and repaint a flawless boat instead of building from scratch? :cry: !

Yeah, it would be cool if someone could make the same scoop but with clear plexiglass :D :D

Was the trailer was given to you without the correct amount of Armour All on the tires?
Waterspots on the hull, maybe?
Perhaps the ice in the icechest didn't last as long as you had hoped?
Please...do tell.

Yes...it's those "small*" problems that can be most annoying.
Anyway...at least you got to "smoke" the competition!
:notam:
*"small" may include wrecking another new motor

KROOZIN

07-13-2005, 06:06 PM

It "may" include wrecking a new motor (one can't be too certain), but it all depends on the definition of "wrecking" :D
