    Guess what boat is mine!

    I spent fathers day with my son yesterday on the St. Lawrence River. Sat Alexandria Bay hosted a Poker Run and a few boats were still at the dock yesterday. Guess what boat is mine! I couldn't resist.

    My son's comment as we walked by the Fountain:
    "No way mom's ever going to let you get a boat like this dad even if you could afford one so just keep walkin'"

    NICE. Sadly we used to see them buzzing around the lake I frequent. BUT the FUN Police restricted the lake to 45mph. So most of the Rich guys took their expensive toys and left!

      What lake Steven? Not Winnipesaukee? I had heard they put speed limits on that lake. We use to go there when I lived in Shrewsbury. Love that lake.
      The Aqua-Mania boat was up for the poker run(daughters dance recitel so we missed it). We spoke to the crew on Sunday and they said they were doing 191 mph at one point and you could put a cup of coffee on the dash. Would have loved to see the Mystic.

        YUP. What a joke. They are taking the fun out of everything.

        I used to rent a house in Alton on the lake and watch all the ultra rich guys fly by together. It was quite a site and music to the ears!

            Oh ya, that's why they alway ask me first when they want something because they know what mom will say.
            The upside is the more I tell her I want one someday the more she tells me to stick the the RC versions! Does that mean I get to build a twin turbine MHZ mystic some day?

                            This is my uncles 40ft hustler w/twin 600hp cummings turbo diesels and arneson drives. Its good for about 80mph. Not blazing fast but it goes pretty good for a 12,000lb boat. And it sounds cool!
