It was still a great time. I have a few friends that are jealous that they bailed and didn't come.
First year out to this and had a great time. I am fairly sure that "slowest boat" was between a pontoon boat and me.
Would one happen to be your wife?
These are both pretty straight shots. Only need to slow down for filthy mud hens.
Be careful at the north end.
Thank you for this.
The first pleasure version of the Jaguar race hull, 1000 ish hp motors, #6 drives. Pretty much an old offshore race boat with not a lot of frills. There is a lot of cool history with Jaguar racing, and our goal is to keep it as old school and original as possible.
Oh, that one. It sounded great.
I have always been told to stay away from the north route due to pilings and sunk tractors. I always come out of Old River, and make a straight line towards Rusty Porthole. I use the 3 palm trees as a reference.
Yep...id avoid the red area. Ive never ventured over there. But I have basically made a b-line for the 3 palm trees from the main entrances coming from Old River or Holland Tract without issue.

Damn there is evidence I was there( the yellow/white grocery on the ramp)
Yes, My brother bought it from a friend of Doug’s. We have gone with Doug to LOTO the last four years. You and I have actually met a couple times at CFW. I usually drag Kenny Francis out with me. If you look close at the pics from Hooky Day you can see him in the back seat.
Cool. Yeah I talked to Kenny at CFW a couple years ago. My parents were in the same drag boat club with him, and we went camping quite a few times. When I was a little kid, his Dad (Howard I believe), kept an eye on me at the races. Good times.
