    A way cool shot from yesteryear.

    My brother from a different mother (MSG11) came down from Ohio to hang w/us when we lived in Fla.

    Took him to the sand bar in Islamorada, Caribbean Club in Key Largo, River Ranch (I gave him the Cracker Ass welcome) and here to the ditch the cuts Fla in half between Port Saint Lucie and Fort Meyers.

    Like always I was experimenting w/stuff on my OMC looper, and like often it failed.
    So I put my wife Cheryl (her 50th b day) in Mikes boat and asked him to take her for a ride for her birthday.

    He took her to the PSL lock (15 mls ea way) and back.
    That boat would run 120+ w/two aboard.
    A Mirage w/a 300x that Mike bought new.

    As you can see, Mike, like me, takes his and his passengers safety seriously and his why I trusted my wife in his boat.

    I shot this photo from my boat, 15 mls after Mike put his foot on the floor.
    A **** shot I know but 20’ from a boat running 120!

    I know the 300X’s have a checkered past but beyond my old 20H race motors. they are my favorite of all time.
    I remember Mike telling me one time his his computer showed 1100 gls of gas through it w/o the heads being off!
    And oil injection!!

    Hope y’all enjoy.

    I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.


    I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.
