Hi Chuck,
This might or might not qualify for your Barefoot Hot Rigs section. I just posted it for fun!
Although not an AWSA approved barefoot-boat... we do foot behind it!
(for example http://akvavsk.nu/akva/film/RealDoubleUp.wmv)
The boat: Fjordling 17 HT, Evinrude 175 DI - probably faster than most
towboats (63 mph!)
The truck: Case 7250 - probably slower than most tow vehicles!
My boat might look a little weird to all you serious barefooters, but it
has it all: center mounted pylon, AirGuide speedo, mirror, four-blade prop, SpeedRails for tracking, a nice wake - and it is an overnighter
for two!
The truck belongs to a cousin that helped us out one day as we didn't dare to launch at the beach with our usual tow vehicle, a 2WD Volvo.
Toes up!
Magnus Lundeberg, Sweden.
Do you have a rig you'd
like to show off?
