no comment on the weight of the seats do you guys think that a lot of weight or is it negligible?

IMO if a person fly into another country, rents a car then drives 9 hours. Definitely says he wants to be a customer. I highly doubt dirk would invest that kinda of money to travel to kick tires.

Sounds like more politics than washington?
Although the "wow your boat must do over 100 as you passed me"
When you know yours does 90 is common worldwide

I bought a hydrostream from joe (p22) when I was like 16. I had my dad drive me there over an hour away and the boat was exactly as P22 described when we got there. (This was when herb had a v8 on the 21 intimidator). I thought the 1989 v8 was great at 98mph but P22 said.... Well I'll let joe fill u in

I know it is all in good fun, everyone has been so cool about this, and hopfully the Tuff will live up to my expectations, but whatever the results are I will give true and accurate numbers, I have concerns about the G1, as far as numbers but Ive come to the realization that realiability will out weigh the big numbers, when I dont have to dig in my pocket to shell out the big dollars for maintainance

and the fireworks between Ghost and P22 really lit up this tread

yeks! boy if Gerry was still around I could only imagine what would happen

I hope those 2 kiss and make up, who knows maybe they will get a room..............it just proves how passionate we are about what we do

**progression22** · 08-06-2015, 08:48 AM

Ill kiss and make up if he has the balls to races terrence' s 27 with white motors and we will see how good of rigger/driver he is once and for all instead of cheerleading from the sidelines.

I guess I only recently had the pleasure of 'first' running along p22 in a skater on a recent CT river run. I like to video and capture the fun if I can and my copilot did a fine job that day. I had no Idea of p22's past 'expertise' as a SOB 'top gun' so it was nice to have him remark that I seemed to make him take another look into his interest again in the 21'-22' SOB's as viable performance boats.

I'm a North shore boater since youth, some think I'm alittle crazy, even heard there is 'blow over pool on my head" (since I rarely slow down)... but that is just what I was brought up running in...the rough !

Who can't deny the fun and comradeship of the this enthusiastic group in general.

keeps me young !
