I can't help it,, I always look,, if there is a hot boat being tow by a respectable vehicle I think that is cool.. My rig is a all Red Titan and I tow Red Rinker and try to make sure it's clean and shinning whenever I start a trip,, Weather I am launching boat at beginning of season,,or taking it away on vacation..
I was at the gas station filling the boat before I dropped it off for storage.. A all white quad cab Ram pulls up towing a 1992 28 foot Skater all white with LT Blue and gold accent stripping powered by 3 freshly redone Merc 2.5 MPI drag engines, 2 long shafts on outsides and a short in the center.. Engine were mounted on jack plates and each engine had a 150 HP nitris kit... They were fueling up and getting ready for a blast across the lake.. What a breath taking package.. The boat will run 137 MPH on pump gas and the current props,, to run nitris full shot top end would require larger props and boat should top out somewhere in the 152-158 neighborhood... Interior of boat had seating for 3 on rear bench,, grab handles for each of those seats and the fronts were very high backed pilot seats,, throttles mounted in center on a console and both driver and passenger stations had grab bars and foot anchor bars and both station were equipped with trim controls..
I get the feeling they don't take many people out for rides,, and that boat for sure has only one driver...
