    Off on a boat ride to an island that a guy is building a mansion on. It's a Zodiac with dual forward looking infrared radar and APPARENTLY 3 -300 hp Mercury outboards on the back. The cabin is floated on 4 air shocks (for low level flying) and we are 4 point harnessed in!!!
    F#$%ing EH!
    Yes Art, I'll get pictures....

    So it was so F#$%ing rough that we couldn't even make 20 knots.....
    26' Zodiac and it had twin V8 Yamaha outboards on it 350hp ea....
    What a monster engine....it's the same engine as in a Volvo XC90 SUV....
    hung off the back of a boat.
    If we hadn't of had those balloons on the side of that thing today we would have rolled it over twice for sure. We had a rear quartering sea that as most of you know flips boats.....trough to crest over 10' waves....
    Yep, that pulled the pucker string tight....yahoo.....

    Fronk....no bewbies....
