Man. That old Anderson Boats start was a show. Watched about 7 waves of boats come by one day. In and amongst that seventh wave was some tubers and one old pawpaw in his ‘74 model, 50 horse not much bigger than a John Boat. I still think he had bigger balls than the ones in the first wave running 100 with just their props in the water.
Sheeeeeettttt, not to brag, but i was in a '78 16' trihull astroglass with a 85 merc on it. Might max at 34mph...had an allison pull up beside me with the driver having a motorcycle helmet on...check up n look at me like "wtf"...then was GONE. Saw him next morning and we smoked him weight wise 😀.
