I thought I had blocked this out...but it's true, I was a whacker.

[GRADS]

My very first boat, not my parents, mine...and yes I was a whacker owner. I was 10. That feeling of freedom was pretty sweet though. Can't believe my family let me take that thing out in the Ocean/Bay of Cape Cod by myself. Found these pics today and I had no idea they existed.

What is that back there a 450R?

Those didn't exist back then, kind of like earlier today.

They seemed to exist before they were supposed to exist, I was just checking how long Merc has been keeping us in the dark.

Is that a jet bote ?

 

[4Waters]

Yeah, we knew you were a wacker.

 

[LargeOrangeFont]

Is that a jet bote ?

Probably an outboard jet....

No it's a step above.

Ok, let me fully understand this: before your balls dropped you had a wacker. Then in your peak 20's you owned a jetboat. You meet your wife because of your jetboat. Then you got married, your balls went into your wife's purse and then you bought an I/O.

Close enough, but there were also a couple sailboats mixed in there.

I hope that wasn't your sister. Bitchen pice.

Ok, so in your case it looks like Jetboat = Testosterone, just checking.

Gay curious days.

Grads being from Cape Cod explains ALOT.
He must of had a crush on his political science teacher.
Lol

Love it! I started out in a tinny with a 15 Johnny. My friend and I would both sit in the back to get the bow light and spend all day beating on that thing.

No shit!

Gawd I loved that show...

I thought that kid was the coolest kid in the world with his own boat to play on anytime he wanted. Dream come true.

And now to find out Greg lived it?

Very envious here, that's too cool!
