Ted just got the fun box finished this week and she hit the water for the first time today. It took 15 guys and an 18 wheeler to get it from the warehouse to the boat ramp...but I'm thinking it will be worth it :-)

It was dark when we finally got it home so no one hit it...but I'll post pics tomorrow once we start riding her...

I really like the way this picture turned out. Looks like a good video intro or something.

the table top is 4 feet across and it sits about 3 and a half feet out of the water. I'm thinking its 46ft long but I don't remember exactly.Here is a front view... I don't have a shot of the approach side yet...but the incline is pretty mild. I'll get some more tom. when we ride.

You could have at least thrown some graphics on it or something... are you guys just being lazy or what?

j/k looks awesome! Hope to see some bad azz pics of you guys on it!

The graphics are to come...Alex has sponsorship $$$ from Air Nautique and LF so we'll "tat" it up when they send us some stuff.

Luker,
where did you guys put the table top? i'm from the area and it seems like every time we put something in a fisherman or marine patrol destroy it. with the size of that thing i'm assuming you're gonna make it permanent?

We are near Real Island...we'll keep it next to the dock where its not that noticeable and then pull it out to the anchors when we hit it and put it back afterwards. I'm guessing we'll get a little feedback from Marine Patrol since its bright white and almost 50ft long but we're hoping its not going to be too big of a problem. Alex has had his A-Frame up for ever and no-one has ever said anything to them...but we'll see.
