Ask these guys

I didn't build it myself, but.........

I looked around at some store bought parts . Brass + Florida are out of the question , unless you like growing green science projects …

I do not want a smokestack protruding out the top of my cowl.

yep i love this site and i have a met a lot of nice people from here and we stay in contact via phone or facebook
i like the facebook because i have control of the delete button
there was only a handful of people that dont like me or my boat mainly
but ole red was born in 2006 and has seen some major improvements some of which were ideas taken right off this site
but the bashing gets to me bad i dont have the thick skin everyone wishes i had
so i had to limit myself to keep my sanity

still really proud of this boat even if it was to slow to fit in with the elite screamandcry group

Remember the old days? Well, the really old days? Back in 2000!

I think Scream and Fly was the 1st thing I ever saw on a computer. Bud of mine was a lurker and turned me on to it. It was like a fantasy world to us both. We both had owned Streams (V-Kings) with V-6 mercs for a long time and there were not many others around our part of fl. On s&f we could see what others were doing with their boats. I have to admit I didn't have a computer till "08".

Yes first there was the Hydrostream site 1990's , That's where I first heard about Scream and Fly , was pretty basic back then.

One of my screen names was Hammer back then, had two or three till Greg told us to only use one
