That is Jackasaurus with the Big Prawn at Ballina in the background and the other shot is at the local boat ramp after this mornings run... Just went for a burn...
This picture really demonstrates why some boats need low water intakes.
I looked at your website, excelent job on the rebuild of that boat. Thats the kind of shit I love looking at. Anyone with money can dump big coin on a ready to race go-fast. But it takes a true boat fanatic to do what you guys did to that old boat.
As a guy that makes that same run to Bimini pretty often I can attest that making it there and back in under 2 hours is awsome. In those perfect conditions it usually takes me an hour and 20 mins one way, of course I'm not pushing my boat like you guys were,.....but still. Nice job!
This vacant engine compartment is a friggin work of art!!!
Thanks It Was A Lot of fun We will Do it Again,Jeff

Posted some back in the Spring. Here is one taken in one of the final tournaments of the year! Already ready for the new year! I am actually standing behind the leaning post on this one. Got a hook in the hand earlier that day and didn't feel like driving!
This is a picture of a picture, sorry about the clarity.
