Kevin, rather than shopping for a new boat you need to shop for a decent camera!

KC-I didn't take the pics....my buddy just sent them to me. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rolleyes.gif Besides, who is shopping for a new boat? http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/ohboy.gif

[Essex502]

Could be the excited, unsteady hand of the user! http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[kc0000]

so Kevin.....
Just incase you are shopping for a new boat.... assuming the new boat might have payments..... I got 6% on the Nordic through Bank of The West.... not too bad considering my loan on the eliminator was based as a used RV.....

Also, if you buy a big boat then you can use it to justify a bigger truck! or another sub with the 8.0L!

I have a nice boat and a great truck....hell, I wouldn't want anything bigger!!! My gas mileage already sucks!!! http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif

Thanks for the tip, KC....but if I was to buy something newer (not new) I would probably take a home equity loan...I can get one of those for about +/-4%. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif God knows I should have tons of equity in my house the way the home prices keep going up. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif

No kidding!?!? I have Bank of The West and my interest rate is not that low. Of course, this was financed going on 3 years ago. Looks like I need to refinance the loan or better yet just buy new. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

That's a sweet looking boat! Lots of coin!! http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif I bet he's going to be a REAL good friend once that thing hits the water http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[kevnmcd]

Here is a pic of the twins.....

RL-Yes!!!! Â*He spent quite a few coins for this thing, but he can afford it. Â*He has a 2000 twin turbo Porsche, brand new house in Havasu, a 2001 Chevy Z71 extra cab, and a small (3400 sf) house in OC. Â*You know how he can afford all this? Â*He is SINGLE!!!!! Â*http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif Â* You might want to rethink the marriage thing. Â* http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif

Well, his motto for giving rides is "Ass, Grass or Gas...No one rides for free!!!" So which one will you be giving him? http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif I don't think he will be there in May....he is kind of a Havasu only kind of boater....I will ask though.

[RiverLife]

Havasu only huh? Kind of narrow minded don't ya think http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif Oh well, his boat could kick my boat's ass.

[Rude]

it's too bad he doesn't like to boat other places. he's missing out on some good water. as far as my three choices.............gas it is!!!

[Cracy Racing]

tell him to stay away from mead. We dont want to be embarrassed

[STV_Keith]

120+? Wow. I know Garth (he's rarely on here, but I think his boardname is Warlock), has a 30' Warloc cat with twin Pfaff 700hp 565's and it runs in the high 90's. Same HP, 2' less and 20mph more?

[kevnmcd]

He hasn't had it out yet, but he says that is what they are telling him. It will be interesting to see what GPS speedo tells him.....

[Rude]

if it goes faster than mine, it won't much matter to me beyond that. all's i'll be seein' is transom anyway http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Rude-Something tells me that 1400 hp might go a little faster than your 470 hp. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

[kevnmcd]

Here are a few more as they make progress....

[kevnmcd]

nice pair of IMCO's....

[kevnmcd]

last one.....

[Rude]

no way kev, my boat is FFFFAAAASSSSTTTTT!!! http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif just as the mrs, it's top speed last weekend when we were out was roughly 45mph http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/insane.gif

[kevnmcd]

Rude-WOW...the boss really let you open it up! http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

[Rude]

YOU KNOW IT!! it's all about livin' life on the edge http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[kevnmcd]

Well, he took it out for a shake down run on Lake Elsinore. He hit 120 mph w/34's on it and was bouncing off the rev limiters. He is going to try 36's and maybe even a couple of 38's! http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/crazy.gif Who knows what speeds he will get with those, but I will let you know.

Here are a couple pics....

[kevnmcd]

Here is another.....

[Rude]

that boat is bad to the bone!! really bitchin' colors too http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif that thing is a 28?? it looks huge on the trailer. is that an adult walking next to it or one of his kids? are you sure you couldn't convince him to make a guest appearnance on the 3rd?

[Rude]

i noticed too that he has wind deflectors. if you happen to think of it next time you talk to him ask how he likes them and if they're effective.

[RiverLife]

I would imagine that at 130mph those wind deflectors don't do shit........ but like I said "imagine", cause I have never and will never be going that fast!!! Good looking boat though.

[duckbutter]

you can't afford to have both kids and a boat like that http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[RiverLife]

It's hard to even get a boat, huh DB!!? http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

[kevnmcd]

DB-Ouch! That is going to leave a mark. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif

[duckbutter]

I don't know why I even grace you guys with my presence http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

[kevnmcd]

cuz maybe your hoping someone will feel sorry for you and give you a deal on one of their old boats or even a trade for some car that no one would want? http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif Sorry, DB but you left yourself open for that one. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif
