omg ! Jill looks so sweet, and you, aaahh, you,,, look,, aaahhh

Let's see one of you, Len, from 25-30 years ago.... C'mon, you can do it, I know you can.

And Duckie, those look like mug shots for goodness sake! Please stop it, you're scarring people.

That was awesome. Now if we just had a few pics of Zilla when he had the 70's John Holmes porn mustache!

Hedge, start now and you can be ready for the Gorge Run. You know you want to!

Hey, you asked for it! I was trying to back a brother up!

In regards to post # 47 concerning the old Carlos n Charlies X-Treme my self and two other gentlemen while working at Baker Eng / Ck Motor sports / Cat Can Do Offshore Race Team did all the repairs to the boat shortly after Jacks tragic accident ( may he rest in peace ) and with all due respect things just might have turned out differently if the F-16 Canopy would not have been modifide , and not to mention the overall look of the inside of the boat combined with the smell concering a project of that magnitude .

Todd, I'll make sure the tires are correctly inflated and the chrome flash of the trailer rims are always perfect no matter what the team happens to pull our offshore race boat through. In my spare time, the props get a special formula so you can read that Bayliner Race Team banner in them. Put the throttles down and bring the trophy back to the pits after the picture taking! Go Team MPO!!!

On a side note. Can we have Ginger roll across the deck for that fantastic shine we desire? Tuff to read this thread at work. Buddies think I'm looking at porn. :-)

The Army frowns upon facial hair - something about not being able to seal up your gas mask. Whatever. I'm ready to return to Civil War fashion.

Annie disliked the beard but she HATED the porn star 'stache. She let me get fuzzy for a couple of months but laid down the law in Feb - said I wasn't getting my Valentine's present until I shaved. I couldn't argue with that...

I love the stache, but please don't strap a MIRV to big geek and try to nuke those friendly undersea alien thingies.

The Abyss, nicely done.

Did some more reading and figgerin' on the Bermuda Challenge. Fertig drove a 39 Skater custom (stepped deep V), T/5.9 Cummins 480hp, Arnesons, and 600gal of fuel. Started out at 70mph but ended up running most of it at 55. The boat would run 70 full and 84 light, and their intent was to keep her on the pins the whole way across, at least until they started slinging prop blades. Weather was pretty good, 3-4s leaving NY Harbor and 2-3s for the rest of the time.

I will say that it takes some nads to change out a heavy Arneson prop, at night, in the water, in 2-3s. Especially when it's your last spare...

38 ZRC with 600hp Cat or Cummins power and a ton of fuel (actually multiple tons of fuel) and the right drives would be a contender. I'm less enthused about the surface drives after the issues they had. They theorized that the torque was killing the props.

One general statement, who the hell rebuilds a dead man's boat, especially if the dead man died on it? I always thought the white color on the Baker boat suited it.

Now, back to the fun...

After very little deliberation, I am definitely in on securing the sponsorship rights to have Phoebe splashed down the side of the boat, and of course, as depicted in Fast Times in a red bikini. I am sure Kevin wouldn't mind, since she hasn't done anything since 1989! Easy call over Sally, although I will always consider her the official spokesperson for the MPO cause. Maybe we can make her spokesperson-emeritus, and not show her current bio to anyone, anymore....eeewww.

As for the endurance runs. We need to work ourselves up to this with persistence and thorough diligence. I say a perfect trial run would be at the First Annual Gorge Offshore Classic. A good run to Chattanooga and back could certainly prove our metal in terms of equipment preparation and solidify the team. Especially with the heady competition from Bayliner Offshore Racing and Team Allison!

Next could be the Key West to Cancun Run. Hell if Reggie can do it in eight and change with a cruiser, we should be able to accomplish it in forty-eight. Could be a b*i*t*c*h* (automated board censor can bite me BTW) getting back, after we drink all of the tequila in Cozumel. Somebody make sure to hit the GPS breadcrumb feature on the way out, please.

One point of contention already though. I like Buzzi drives over Arnies....

Great idea - baby steps! I'm already wavering on the Arnies after the Skater threw a couple sets of blades. We'll probably need to establish a skunkworks to do some T&E. I'm running an SEI Alpha drive, seems to be a nice piece. Maybe they're looking to get into the offshore game with some sponsorships. Surely we can find some magic gear lube additive to double their HP and quadruple their torque capacity.

Based on your recommendation I reviewed Phoebe Cates' resume and body of work via a google image search. She's in. I'd hit that so hard that the first guy to pull me out would be crowned the king of England. Sorry Sally.

The Gorge Offshore Classic seems like an ideal icebreaker. And if by "solidify the team" you mean drink bushwhackers and Tito's until we forget our names and **** our pants that sounds like a good plan.

[BUIZILLA]

major topic derail....

carry on

[The Hedgehog]

There was a guy on scream and fly that put a pad on a Bayliner for grins. I will find him. I think that ideas like that have great promise in The Gorge Offshore Series!

[BUIZILLA]

we could take the whaler and a box of drywall screws and fasten a 4x8 sheet of plywood underneath it, and make it a massive wop board...
