Today we decided to hit the local canal for a little test and tune. The canal is called C14 for the local guys. Yamaha FZS/RXT/Kawi Standup 750 on this ride. The weather has been blowing lately in South Florida with 20-25MPH gusts so we decided to stay in the canals for this week. Enjoy the video!

A lonely friend....

With all of the stress of school I decided to go for a walk alongside the pier at Haulover Inlet in Miami. The sun was on its way to setting and darkness slowly creeped up bringing alongside the creatures of the night. There is a small cove where large visiting vessels park overnight visiting Miami from other locations. I spotted this little guy just playing around.

Today I had the chance to test ride Louis's FZR. After doing some work on the jet ski it has slowly transformed to a very stock Yamaha FZR to a fun little toy. Acceleration times have decreased considerably. Anyways, here is a ride on a Yamaha FZR.

2/25/2012 AMAZING TRIP!

Had an amazing time with my friends today. We found water that closely resembled that of the Bahamas and my pool! It was so clear we could see for miles. We also did some snorkeling and saw some 5ft tarpon. Enjoy the video!

Miami Boat Show 2012

Today we decided to visit the Miami International Boat Show! It was sponsored by Progressive Insurance this year and let me tell you it was quite a show. I have been going to the boat show for many years and it seemed to me like it was dwindling down but not for 2012! Money must be good because there was a line for tickets throughout the day not only to enter the show but to find parking. I was lucky enough to find $15 parking very close to the show! Seadoo also sent me a free ticket, lucky me. Maybe they are trying to get me to switch from Yamaha LOL. Anyway's, we are thinking about purchasing a bigger boat in the future so the boat show sure showed us some great choices. I really liked the Intrepid lineup and of course Midnight Express. When I hit the lotto I will definitely purchase one! Enjoy the pics.

The wheels you see on the boat allow it to be driven out of the water and onto dry land. The system is called Sea-Legs and honestly it is pretty cool!
