Yes that is Parker Rabe with the inline 2 seat Seabold, giving a few uninitiated folks a ride. The Copper colored cat is a Simmons Custom Boats. The 22' twin rigged Talon has 200XS's. The black hull is a Big-O bass boat converted into a 84 mph flats boat. The Viper Hydrostream is like brand new, the seats are even original. This is the 1979 that never had the holes drilled in the transom until recent.
There was a 30+ footer full canopy offshore cat at the Santa Fe split when we got there. Lots of eye candy. Dozens of boats couldn't find a place to pull-up on the point. That means there were well over 100 boats. I had a rope on this one but let it get away.. Towing Shot.jpg This is when 250 hp comes in real handy.

I think the big o and the lake and bay are very similar. What was that on your line? Intimidator? Wasn't that Mragu's stream?

In tow is a 20' Superboat with a locked up 225 Merc. 23MPH at 4000 RPM anything more and the superboat would wash over the curl and surf on my wake making the occupants real nervous, myself included. Longer rope or bridal action would have been easier. Where is McGyver I mean Ferman when you need him?

Yami 300 on V21 with trim tabs, that would do it. Could adjust that just right and avoid porpoising too. Of course, how often is the ocean flat enough to run over 50 mph in a 20' boat ? Would have to run mostly calmer bays that have some size.........or the Del River.
Imagine cruising speed of 50 in one of these ? That's my boat's top, top speed with the bimini down and light. Trimmed for that speed, not a lot of boat in the water...or motor. Add another 10 or 15 mph ? Might be just a tad squirrely !
