something a little different

A couple of pics of last night at sun down. It is about 22 miles back to the launch on this shallow water river. Needless to say some of us were doing it by brail.

That would be a FUN RIDE!!! Got anymore pic's?

 

[allblowdup]

This what happens when you read the river by brail. LOL. Actually the guy hit a stump under the water at 75 mph and it shot him up the gravel bar that way. He travelled about 100 yds on the gravel before he stopped. Pretty funny to watch. I take a few more this weekend.

Is that an aluminum wakeboard boat?!?

I miss watching these guys on the Trinity River.

Something that is on my bucket list is to take a ride in one of these boats. :thumbsup

 

[allblowdup]

The orange one in the pic is kinda. It runs a 383 with a hamilton and leaves a huge wake so I guess yes.

Ya the boats are great until you run out of water then they get real loud. Just like a gravel crusher. LOL

Here is an old one of us racing at about 105 mph. And if we dent it we put it in my press.

I love these boats would love to own one down here is So.Cal because it would be diffrent, but the cost is WAY up there $$$!!!! :thumbsup :grumble:

Its funny, the boat with the wings on it is mine and it spent most of it's life in Lake Havasu with a blown 540 in it. Now it has a stroked LS3 and goes about 5 mph slower 100 mph.

Here is one of our race boat from our race last year and one of me hauling my quad up the river in the fall.

Bad-ass

 

[allblowdup]

About two miles before that picture I drove over a 3 ft rock sticking out of the water about a foot. Couldn't see it because the quad was in the way. Scared the crap out of me but nothing happened. The yellow boat does approx 110 mph. Haven't hit any rocks with it just one grvel bar at 100 mph and the river bank at 60 in a tight turn. Whoops!

Love the quad hauler..
