30Velocity.com is a “just for fun” site for people who enjoy high performance boating.
I really love this boat as you can tell by me even having a site dedicated to it. A lot of boaters have and pass out “Boat Cards” to each other at events and gatherings to keep in contact with friends both new and old. This site is our boat card…
Mark and
Becky Underwood are Ohioans (for now) and take our boating seriously. Seriously
fun that is. About half the time you’ll find us at Buckeye Lake kicking back at
the Sand Bar by day and touring the 13 bars’ on the waters live bands for the night’s
entertainment. Usually overnighting at one, often Captain Woody’s or Papa Boos.
The other half of our boating time usually involves a couple Poker Runs and a
couple long distance road trips a year. If we have to go somewhere for any
reason we usually take the boat along to explore new water. Lake Norman has
been an annual trip since we bought the boat and we spend a week there every
summer. Great people down there on a great lake…
We pretty
much dedicated 20 years of our lives to drag racing motorcycles. We worked our Asses
off and finished up with a couple AMA National Championships in 02-03 riding a
Factory Sponsored Yamaha. After starting from scratch on a little stock street
bike in the 80’s, I felt we’d accomplished our goals and walked away from the
sport. It was a great ride but I was tired. We bought a boat to relax and enjoy
life for a change.
Now on our third boat, I still have the racer in my blood.
I’m always tweaking the boat for more speed and power. We watched an offshore
race on Lake Erie, which fueled my desire to race this boat. It was in the back
of my mind when it was purchased 3 years ago. The wife says bad idea… “You don’t
have another 20 year$ to throw away.” She’s always right…
Please contact
us if you’re boating in our area. Always happy to offer advice if we have it on
a place we’ve been, or give you a tour if we’re there… (and happen to know the
area) We’ve learned a lot that way from other boaters come friends over the
years.
As set-up now she runs mid 70s and expect 80mph this spring 09
Twin 454s w/Merlin Heads - EMI Thunder Exhaust - Eldelbrock
Carbs and Air Gap Intakes
Bought from Shogren in Chicago December 05 where it was 9
degrees
Too freaking cold so we loaded and headed for Lake Norman
early march where it was 70-80 degrees.
No leaves yet but 30 degrees warmer than back home in Ohio
Big enough to travel/cruise/sleep on comfortably, yet small
enough to trailer easily, It’s a great all around boat.
Winterizing involves pulling motors, drives and freshening
everything up because I canJ
Heads, intakes and exhaust are getting a porting job at
www.TwistedImageCycles.com this winter by me.
