Submissions for May here. Let's get the entry numbers back up :thumbup:

[HB Vic]

I'm going to switch this up a little this month.

If we have 6 contestants or less, we will give away the regular AO 24 pack fabric cooler.

BUT, if we have 7 or more contestants, we will give away the AO 24 pack carbon fabric cooler like shown below. That's a $80 retail cooler for free if we have 7 or more entries this month.

So lets see your boats people!!

Isn't that what it is? Oh shit what's my boat doing in this thread? Lol :D :D

[HB Vic]

Just a reminder people, you must have 25 posts minimum to vote. You don't have to have 25 posts to enter however. And the 25 posts must have some content to them. Simply racking up 25 posts by saying nothing won't get it done. Thanks for entering.

OK I'm in if this is Schiada month...............This is a 93 Schiada 21' River Tunnel with a 2011 300XS hanging on a Stainless Marine mount. We can see ~82 on the GPS Speedo and without a doubt the most miles per hour: HP ratio of any of the boats here this month.

300HP = 80 MPH......the other boats would have to go like 200 to be close :D................................oh yeah and all this on ~12GA an hour of pump gas :thumb:

1600 views and only 25 votes?

I realize many of the views are probably the same people looking over a few times. But at a minimum we should be able to get 10% of the views converted to votes.

This contest is dependent on two things; entrants and voters. Last month we only had 3 entries. We have 8 this month. We've upped the prize to a pretty nice carbon fiber embroidered AO Cooler.

Lets show these proud owners a little love people. Vote!!

Thank you!!

[HB Vic]

Ok good news. The 25 post rule has been removed. The rule was put in place to prevent people from creating multiple accounts and essentially cheating on the vote. We have implemented a new registration process whereby it would be very difficult for anyone to create multiple accounts. Therefore the 25 post min vote rule is no longer necessary.

Please encourage your friends and family to login and vote for you.
