Serious Offshore Makes A Splash At PRA Season Opener - PHOTOS

[jayboat]

I had the good fortune to join Alec and some of my Serious Offshore brethren and their wives aboard Alec's 43 Nor-Tech for the PRA Cape Coral Run this past weekend.
It's always a fun, unpredictable time with Alec and this day was no exception.
Got to meet both Alec and Craig's better halves for the first time and all I can say is those boys are NOT worthy.

Great to see all the usual suspects again, and as usual, I met a few familiar peeps at last and can now put faces with the names:
Jim (bellmitsubishi), Mike (MaxonMike) and Randy (CNC).

It was another beautiful, southwest Florida day and there was plenty of kickazz hardware to drool over.

This first one was definitely not a good sight, and unfortunately it turned out for the worst.

I liked JBS's last paint job better...

[cosmic12]

Thanks Jay, But....Please don't stop now:)

[Magic Medicine]

It's a work in progress. They didn't have to time to get the full wrap done.

[appsyscons]

Jay,

You did a great job, again, with the pics. I just looked over the set and all I can say is WOW!

I had completely forgotten about this event. We are at the beach on Boca Grande (dead flat calm), when we began to hear the roar of the engines behind us, in Gasparilla Sound. About 45 minutes later I remembered about the run, way to late to relocate and take pictures.

See you in a week.

[Wrinkleface]

those shotz w/ the exhaust R cool!!!:cheers2:

Thanks, Frank. We had a great time.

The day, however, was not entirely without incident for me...:(

Sorry- wasn't being negative, just in general I liked the other paint was all. I'm a fan of blue!

Nah... it's nearly in two pieces. It was a pretty good lick, I'm surprised the mount didn't let go.

And the rest of the crew was leaning over the side to level the boat.

No need now though.

That might be the only photo of the SOS boat in existence that doesn't have Craig Peeing off the back !:sifone:

[cigdaze]

That's because he's about to pee off the front.

[Geronimo36]

Jay,

Any more pics of the boat below? My friend owned the boat last year and never got any pictures taken of it.. I spoke to him the other night, he's willing to pay if need be.
