What hull did u pop?

[AZMIDLYF]

I built it in conjunction with Schiada Boats.

Interesting...it looks like it says Lavey something on the rear. So did it become a production hull at Schiada?

[Mad Maximillion]

It says Liberty Racing. If you want more details please PM me so we don't hijack this thread. Thanks!

Was a Merc calender several yrs back that had an A Bote on one month that you could see all the way under the pad. Not much prettier than an A Bote on it's pad and that was one of the best shots of one that I've seen.
Don't remember who it was.

Here's a couple more of my favorites. Both Coon asses.

I think this one is Bobby AKA "DaBull" doing what he does as good as anyone on the planet. I believe thats his full zoom 2.5 w/a blue bottle hooked to it on T-Rex's 250 lb Laser. Only boat I ever declined a chance to drive.

I do regret saying no.

I'm very slow to drive someone else's boat (car, motorcycle etc).
Normally I get out and they say , "not like that!",
or I blow it up.

Thanks Gary...if memory serves me correctly it was in the low 80's with a 3 blade cleaver. That boat was a blast to drive....would go around the turns like I was on a rail! That was back in my teens...I called it the "Teenie Bopper EXPRESS" :D386737



Great classic photo Dan:thumbsup:....like the B+W!!! What speed would she do down the straits?

Is it easier or more difficult to drive a waterski boat like they do? :confused:

AZMIDLYF, the Yamaha has been flawless, torque everywhere, we were running a 32 TXP turbo in this shot, 101-102.
