The weather was so crappy I went through more gallons of beer than gas.

Was it still worth going? Hell yea!

Alby,It was awesome crossing the finish line at the same time in first place.Looks like all the hard work on the Virage paid off,and got you well into the tripple digits.Met alot of cool people at the campground and also out on the water.Maybe we can recruit some boats down to the Hudson river ,too share with them what we enjoy all summer long.Oh Yea Thank Dawn for all the great pics including the '' Look mom no hands'' picture.

It definitely wasn't to smart to be out there running like that without them and we will be wearing them from now on. Thanks for everyone's help and concern, we really appreciate it.

Ben

Just glad your both ok and we could be there for you,get those vests its not that bad,hope you heal quickly. Chris

thank's jon. yes the virage has come a long ways and glad all my hard work paid off

sure glad i got it to handle great at the same time i put more power to it. I look forward to running with you and any others that would be willing to come run.I like that we have a great time running togather, just hope next time we do a damn run someone is there to get a picture of the virage and rocket side by side well in the number's

I like that a lot of people are there to help each other and make sure everyone stays running... like giving up carb parts and props so other's can run...NOT people putting other boats down because they are a lil slower.WE all started some place and everyone's boat looked great.

Jon and Alby, keep me in the loop if you guys go out. I'll be the token slow guy if you don't mind.

I'm hoping to make it up to the fall repeat if possible. I've been having some problems with a tenant but she'll be long gone by then and maybe I'll have enough expendable cash by then.

well said alby we are all in it for the enjoyment we get out of using our boats not for who's is the fastest or the nicest looking. I'm glad i got to come up and just run my boat. I'm also glad i had those parts in order to let some one else finish out the weekend with a running boat. Well next year i am definitely going to do more boating and the dam run. Let me know when that hudson river thing is.

**transomstand** · 06-15-2011, 12:01 PM

As you get older, you find something out.

Your only fastest, until somebody goes by you.

Been fastest, been slowest. Didn't matter, the length of my inseam, and other body parts, never changed

(and the cat still hated me)

**81hydrostream** · 06-15-2011, 12:31 PM

Sounds like I missed a great time. Work keeps getting in the way.
