Yep, I did ride in the "24" on the last day. Â Coupla laps and put it on the trailer.

A real eye-opener for me...between 60-80, no big deal, easy to read the water. Â Once they 'punch it" up to the 90's, it's a blur, you really need to know what your doing... :beat

No press for the hired help, but pinkie did make an appearance on launch day...

So I get back to the shop this afternoon and this thing is in the driveway... :eek

"Scottie, I need more power...." :laugh

We've got two of the 40' Cats, two 36' Coupes, 2 33' Daytonas waiting for carrier shipment, a 27' Fundeck headed to Canada tomorrow, a 33' Daytona headed to Tahoe on Saturday, about ten boats in Service.... :rolleyes

Where am I supposed to park.... :pissed

Paul got that thing running "on the edge" later in the day on Havasu...he's pretty good in the seat, and even admitted that it might be at the top of the curve in terms of hull performance... :guns
