Those were beautiful boats no doubt, but since someone posted their top speed, I just wondered why they chose to start in the back? Roger in the white 35 Fountain with Blue lettering and 525s was running 105 and the first TWO boats to the lunch stop were Fountains. Great poker run, met some nice people and had a LOT of fun. Too bad my pair of 5's were not good enough to win. LOL

Beak Boater, It was MY pleasure meeting you, talking about your boat and running together. It is a small world when boating and everybody has things in common. Hope you are doing well and hope to see you soon on the water. Roger
