Nice shots, Hans! Your shots of the flyby are better than mine... that whole 'let's put Jay up on the deck' thing turned out to be not such a great idea, at least not with the boats coming so close... that second wake nearly put me in! We'll get it right next time.

Anyway, I did get a few good ones- a lot of that water today was not good for keeping focus. I'll put some up tomorrow.

Here's the shot of the day.

Default Thanks for the show!

To those who were running south in the ICW this afternoon, we had a great show watching you pass by. My kids were thrilled to see and hear you all! We were on the Hooters boat, headed in from a day out fishing. To the driver of the Boss 442, pm me, I'd like to talk with you.

That was a lot of fun!! thanks for letting us take part in that. It was our frst organized event with our boat, so we didnt really know what to expect. Looks like you guys were gonna get hammered by rain when you were heading back out to the Gulf when we were pulling into Punta Gorda? I have a lot of pictures and videos I will try and upload tommorow. Cant wait to do this again!

Had a great time yesterday. Thank you Dennis for the ride of a lifetime and my first time over 100mph in a boat. That was quite a different being at the front of the pack vs bringing up the rear. Thanks again to all.

John

Sure, just pm me your email address.

We were moving pretty good when I shot that and it is a tad fuzzy. Of all the days I have shot from a boat, that was the absolute worst water for trying to hold the camera steady... it just felt HARD and I could not get around the vibration.

this shows it...
