Here was my first project boat when i was a teenager. It was a 15' Surfmaster with a 33 Evinrude. Built the deck from Teak. The 33 only ran about 28 MPH. Then I put on an Evinrude 175 and it buried the 60 MPH speedo. The 175 was waaay too much for this hull. I sold the hull and bought a brand new 1986 18 Charger DL and then I was hooked as a fast boater

Nice score... Sooo when is the Mitchie Big Shot Bunkie Bash ?

I think it is in June now, but at his real home and not his bunkie. In fact when I drove past last night he was out hosing down his bath house (don't be fooled when says he built a purgola, it isn't) and he turned and yelled to me "never to early to start getting ready for everyone!" :shock:

If you drink the Cole's kool-aid, you won't regret it. You too LC - the cult can always use more members. :twisted:

Nice shot of TEST BOAT 1 there Doug... Nice job on the deck though...

My story starts when my mothers water broke at her sisters camp on a island... Dad blasted her to shore with a 59 Evenrude 5hp on a cedar strip... The summer of 65 my dad bought us a camp/cottage. We had a 28 Jonhson on a 15' fiberglass red and white, she was a beauty... Living on a lake as a kid you just can't help but get into water sports and fast boats ... Love it large...

I got it Real Bad !

I always bring my own beverages to the Coles and never leave them unattended. Apparently I need to bring my own beverages to Mitchie's as well given the bath house

You never know what someone might slip into your drink! :lol:
