5 GLASS BOATS ran in the 4 mile regatta. 2 were inboards (a donzi and a carlson) not classics imo. the other 3 were outboards ..frank alguires powercat, a gw invader, and a lido. don't have to tell who placed 1st and 2nd.
and they're off.. out of the hole the gw got a sizeable jump with frank 2nd and the lido waaaayback. at the 1/8th pole frank overcame the gw and held on to come in 1st of the classics. frank ran full throttle thru the whole course jumping wakes where the whole powercat looked like it was airborne. his merc ran as good as the "Lida Rose" looked. 2-3'chop hampered the gw while frank ran full bore thru and over it. NO FEAR IN THAT MAN. PICS SOON

Gee Ron, I haven't had time yet to go through my pics. Nice job.

It was great to finally meet a lot of the people I had e-mail relationships for a long time. Some great boats and great people. And John Gibson's work looks as good in person as it does in the photos, if not better.

I thought my boat looked good until I was parked at the dock next to the Linda Rose. JAG has a beautiful boat. As Ron said, probably the best in the show. I felt like I just dragged some POS out from behind a barn and stuck it in the water.

A long drive, but well worth it.

Waterwings Offline Contributing Member Posts: 4890 Karma: 107 Thank you received: 100	Great pics guys thanks for sharing. Looks like it was a good turn out. I think it's probably a good thing I didn't make the drive up, next to all those good looking boats mine would have looked woefully inadequit!

Wish I had the video camera. Nice glassics there. It was enjoyable watching them go by along with Bob Walworks Raveaus. That new one of his was really movin.
