i met galen, a nice man, obsessed with his racer, changing hull design to go faster,, they would not let him run in the work, only modified, boat idled at 10 knots
Hey guys for anyone that is interested in getting the Heavy Hauler which goes amazing with American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator. I am selling one still in the bubble wrap purchased directly from the Manfacturer. Bought for 270.00 dollars including shipping. I am selling it for 200.00 dollars with free shipping anywhere in the USA. Paypal is accepted. Let me know, it's pretty awesome.
Racing begins Saturday, June 15, in Boothbay Harbor and moves up to Penobscot Bay on Sunday, June 16, but two of the most iconic figures in Maine lobster boat racing - Galen Alley and his race boat Foolish Pleasure - will be missing. fisherynation.com/archives/81180
I believe he said the boat was a Magnum Missile with 200hp mercury. He also said he was a little stiff for a few weeks after the crash. Tore the transom clear of the boat among other damages. She is repaired and ready to run again, however they have purchased a 17' Starcaft Eliminator that they race now. AKa Duo Mystry, yes correct spelling.
Upon talking to Kraig, he felt Alton could have won, but was forced to slow down due to his smaller boat and weather conditions. Kraig was racing a Donzi which nearly stalled on take off, while Alton was using a T-170 Starcraft Eliminator and 200hp Mercury, the boat later produced as a Duo Mystry, a tunnel hull boat produced in the 70's and very rare today to find. The longer Donzi boat being much more capable of handling the choppy water. by Jim
LOL always a cry baby in the crowd..... and no one cares if he hauls a pot or not i could care less i go to see that boat go not to watch it haul traps. That is what draws in the crowds not the slow poke boats that do 30 mph LOL. i would like to see some just FUCKING race him...people keep saying oh next year i will race him oh next year and it never happens...but either way as long as he is racing i will continue to go. 77.4MPH is pretty sweet in that kind of a boat.
No shit it would be crushed vs a speed boat you fool cause its a lobster boat with a big motor thats all oh by the way your pointless if you dont like dont watch or comment
