Don't quote me but I think he was about 50 when he passed.
When I was younger (teenager) and before I was able to buy my own boat, I was with some friends at his beach club surfing (Chapel Beach Club). There was a swell from a hurricane offshore... It was quite large...no other boats were out there.
I'm sitting out in the line-up and I hear a boat coming.... Down the beach I see this Aqua color boat hauling azz about 75 mph (we're talking early 1990's). He gets to the beach club, I can see he's wearing a helmet, makes a hard left turn and heads directly for the horrizon...
I'm distracted from surfing and all I can do is watch in awe as he's flying thru the air and dissapears inbetween the swells....

I thought to myself, that guy is f'ing "Crazy"! Then my next thought was; "Damn, I wish I was with him! :bump::cheers2:
