Younz gots to clean that beotch!

I’ve done alot of boating over the years, but have never owned a boat. I have a few friends with boats. I have a real good friend that usually gets a new boat every couple of years. Here is a couple of pics of his boats. Alot of the time, I go on the Poker Runs on both Lake Erie, or the Chesapeake Bay (where he currently keeps the boat). I have done big audio systems in all of his boats, too.

Poker Runs are the place to see some awesome boats. Last year, I saw a 43’ Black Thunder 430GTthat sold for $850,000. I got to ride in it, but it was only a 75mph boat (it weighed 16,000 lbs - it had 3 big blocks in it and a generator).

Here’s a shot of the 110mph boat (33’ Daytona Eliminator - he sold when he bought the PowerQuest) best pic I could find:

Here’s the 80mph boat (38’ PowerQuest 380 Poker Run Edition) he replaced the 110mph boat with:

Oh, and here’s a 125mph boat (twin 950 horse SC 572 cube big blocks):

This is a 105mph boat with 3 Big Blocks (1-950hp SC, and 2-650hp NA motors - $750,000)
