    Gold Rush, Where is it??????
    #1
    What ever Happened to the Gold Rush Quad Motor Cat? Ever since the Trailer Incident I haven't seen it anywhere. It certainly wasn't a Total Loss from dragging the Skegs on the street, Was It?

    That's really funny.
    Kind of hard to have it repoed when you paid cash.
    It was featured in Powerboat for the 100 MPh roundup which took place after the road rash.

    There's a few reasons you haven't seen it.
    Frank is is building a new house in Sarasota which is taking up a lot of their time.
    They also have a 50V diesel for general pleasure boating. He only uses the boat for FL poker runs so he'll be back with it in Sarasota, KW etc.

    End of rumors?

    I suspect you are confusing Gold Rush with another boat that has "Gold" in the name. The other boat was seized by the US Marshals. Much different than a repo!

    Yep. Gold Rush and Gold Digger are not to be confused.

    The latter was ceased by the US Marshals in the fastboats deal. Read more here:

    You'll get a kick out of this... So I'm out on my boat one afteroon with my wife and daughter when I get a phone call from my sister. I say hello but there's a dude on the other end... I think to myself, my sisters voice has gotten really deep but ti's really windy so I'm having trouble hearing...... So he keeps talking asking me where I am and if I'm going to come down yadda yadda yadda.. I say to him (with the wind and my engines running), who the hell is this??? Then he starts laughing....

    Turns out it was Bart calling me from my sisters cell phone. He ran into her at the AC Poker Run...

    Haven't seen Gold Rush since he sprayed me at the FT. Myers PR. Miles and miles of open water and he comes 20' from me and I get his rooster tail. I saw the trailer posts. He should keep driving his diesel.

    At the speed he was traveling he probably thought you were a channel marker.

    I've been accused of doing that myself... turns out the real story was the boat who complained hit a wave and hooked to the left as I was passing by and he got into my roost. I appologized anyway, even though I didn't do anything....

    anyway, I'm sure he didn't do it on purpose and it's not his first rodeo... he also owned Warrior prior to GR..

    I heard it was de-rigged and cut up! I also heard the owner bought an OL.....

    All kidding aside, I saw the powerboat mag today that had gold rush in it. Looked really nice. Congrats to Nor-Tech and the owner for an awesome boat!
