Re: sick boats
how about a 13.5 ft hustler with a 50 hp on it.
had that before the checkmate, it was a racing hull was told by the dealer.
the dealer was an exracer and understand he was pretty good, name john celletti.
very light and hammering it out of the hole the whole boat prop and all would rip out of the water.
she would skip a couple of times then would be pretty much flat out.
i ran a cupped 3 blade and top was about 55 mph but that hole shot was something.
i'm going all the way back to 1965 on this one and took this group of girls skiing practically every day.
the girls all were believe me outstandingly beautiful
married one, one was killed at 19, one got leukemia and died, one became a playboy bunny and all were very intelligent ladys.
my wife wasn't to smart, she married me. lol
the girl with leukemia look magazine did a multi page article on her because of her incredible beauty and intelligence, what a waste of gods art.
