    That was my dream boat as a kid. Especially with a loud 2.5!

    Your boat looks great. Wish it was mine.

    Looks like a early Red/White 24 SB OB in the background on the other side of the dock.

    What kind of speeds are you getting with that 2.5?

    That pic shows how timeless certain colors are - like blue. The boat looks as stylish now as it did when it popped out of the mold!

    That Superboat looks incredible. I love the color scheme. Growing up in Massapequa, there was a 24 across the canal from me in that color scheme.

    Well, I scrounged up the poor quality videos and uploaded them to YouTube. Watching them actually brought a tear to my eye. Proof positive that you can never start them to young. Gotta love the sound of my old 2.5 (even at idle) too!

    BTW, The little kid in these videos - my son Brandon - is now 27 years old!
