Things I learned at AOTH XI

[roadtripse]

- I looovvve sandbaggers…
- But even sandbaggers have to eventually open their hatches and back it up on the water.
- Diana truly thinks a 540 is “stock” and with the AOTH crowd, it is.
- Phil’s boat can stop a loud raft-off party with a full tilt boogie in progress, DEAD in its tracks.
- EVERYBODY digs the Falls, especially after a long, five year hiatus.
- Are 18 Classics really met to run 85? Why yes they are…
- Please don’t give our auctioneer the big gulp tequila. Fan? What fan?.
- A happy hour martini takes the edge off, but quit feeding Booe that SQUIRREL sausage!
- Aaron and that pretty little lady make me feel real old, but they run a mean 16.
- I hate event t-shirts, but at least we don’t have 155 of them leftover in Jerry’s basement.
- Chicks dig Pink AOTH fleece.
- Speaking of Pink, dam that LIPSTICK-colored Lifeline was bright. You could see it from space.
- More sun block please, but man that water is cold.
- Who the heck needs a prop shaft any way?
- Did you see Lippy's new interior?
- The JRM gas dock crew is going to be there, even for those who CAN’T back a boat like me.
- Deneen can make any dock look good. New category for awards next year, People’s Choice, Ms. Chanel.
- Byron can put a boat together in the parking lot.
- The tow boat is compliant with the American’s with Disabilities Act, but even healthy people want to stay.
- What the heck is all of that stuff under the hatch of Kenny’s beast. Please bring it back.
- 26 steps don’t suck.
- What a great time!
