Hotboat, your write up brought it all back. Great thread to read start to finish.

I am within earshot of the course and your coverage and pictures added to this local's experience. I am glad that you got to enjoy, not only the great boats, but the great hospitality here on the lake. All are welcome here.

Mark your calenders everyone. Week and weekend before Labor Day 2014.

Loved the right up HB, I think the boat "Liquid Asset" impressed me as much as any, somehow i feel the reverberation when i see a pic of it. Bet there are ripples in the water coming off that boat!

What he said. Great job!!

I've run the Shootout four times. If anyone is considering doing it... just do it. Great event to be a part of.

Thanks for your perspective. That's the best coverage I've seen this year, period.

Yes, very nice meeting you and welcome to hotboat.com. Sunday was awesome, a little humid , but awesome. Next year we will be a little better prepared and I for sure will NOT wear a thick black shirt

Now that I have a little time and the pressure is off to get stuff up on the site post haste, I'll go through my couple thousand pics and start pulling out some of the better pics. Like this one. The business end of "My Way", which happened to be parked right in front of our room. Literally. As we opened our door this phenomenal piece of machinery was staring us in the face. Pretty damn cool.

Mercury was also represented at LOTO. First time I heard about the 520. Merc is supposed to send me the press release. And of course the 1650. Hella motor right there.

E-Ticket (Lake Havasu, Az) brought one of their beautiful deck boats. Had the opportunity to meet the E-Ticket folks, but unfortunately didn't get to spend any time with them. Absolutely beautiful deck boat right there.
