The old, OLD days...
The one of the very first featured boats on Scream And Fly, back in 1998. That's Mike Balz's HydroStream HST.

One of the prettiest Streams ever!
I always had it at the top of my “Lake Boats” list.
His friend Steve from Minnesota had one just as pretty and fast.

I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

B
Era 1991
1985 laser LTV ModVp and Dragger. I learned so much from this pleasure converted raceboat. Some of the best racing times in my career. During this period in my life I ran it so on the extreme edge since I didn’t care about life, and yes it was because of a woman. Until one day I came to my senses and said wtf and moved on. To tell the truth I should thank her for gaining skills I still use today. lolLast edited by trbocharge; 10-20-2025 at 08:46 PM.
