    Did they make it on the Johnny Carson show?
    I remember seeing a rejection letter saying it wasn't newsworthy enough or something to that effect.

    That is the reason they went with it. We out ran a tornado once in it across the lake,4 foot waves.Pounded through as if they were nothing.Big ugly tri-hull. One of the sponsers was Cobalt,also Cypress Gardens and Golden Loaf Flour Company. I will try to get some pics from my uncle.

    Its a cutie! Still looking for a 15 sider..damn old back can't take the Flatty, hitting a wake..need a V. And miss that trimmed out, riding the prop, the tail"..ya know what I mean..sawing the wheel, keep it from chine walking..."on the pad"..
    OH yeah, forgot..speed the Flatty mine? Just broke it in. Running a 2 blade SS cup, 12x24. Pitot loses water, so not known WOT MPH. Don't matter. Its a little "drag master!". Do a punch from sitting, let the Merc sing, spins to about 3500, prop grabs, down to 2000 plus, then simple hang the hell on, and drive, as it spins to about 5700 R's..real blast.. tell myself.."I getting to old for this ****..but I will go to my casket..that damn "grin"!

    And the Jetskis..?..FEAR ME!.."come on..what ya got?"
