    I have been lucky enough to: Win in a 29 Mirage, 30 Velocity, 30 Phantom, 10 meter, 38 Fever, Half breed Fountain, SkaterV,

    Raced 26 BRT/Wellcraft, 26 Corsa, 31 and 34 Sutphens, 30 Skater,

    Crashed in a race: 21 Shadow, 38 Lightning, Just playing 22 Velocity, 23 Eliminator,

    Buddys thrown for a swim: Jay, Eric, Brian, all most forgot Stevie, Richard and me in one shot. Oh Me and Martin, Big Bob real close.

    No claims, only 3 ambulance rides: Martin, me twice, separately.

    I should stop now it is getting too long... I think that is it..

    Maybe this wasn't a good idea? Here we go.

    A crash is defined as broken boat and/or got hurt.

    My crashes and swims were not just races. I only went swimming once in a race boat. And threw Brian out in Key West.

    Raced:
    24 Skater
    30 Chris Cat
    21 Superboat

    Crashed:
    21 Superboat - Actually not sure if I crashed or the guy in front of me in the 22 Velocity. He got tossed and I ran him over.

    24 Skater - Spun in New Orleans. Stuffed really bad in Grand Haven. That was the career ender.

    Fortunately I never got tossed out or tossed anybody riding with me. Maybe I never pushed hard enough.

    It still doesn't qualify, but in a 15 year carreer racing desert, I think I have taken enough soil samples to qualify for a job with the US Geological Society...

    Robert, I loved those 21's and 22 Velocities. They were river monsters. You run them when the winds blowing in the bay. Skipping and dancing in the swells. Fun Fun.

    Every now and then you would push it to hard. Well. Every time. Many times came back feeling real lucky. Sometimes with a lesson in respect.

    How about jumping out of the boat on purpose? Looked cool on Baywatch. The learing curve kinda hurts though.

    you were just trying to jettison all the ballast.... and you left out that we still won and kept the interior in the boat. I credit the 20' kill switch tether/ski rope, it allowed me the freedom to wander around the cockpit as need be during the race.

    Only took 14 months for my toe nail to grow out correctly.

    Your toe nail was a small price to pay for victory
