So Bahamas runs are always fun figured I would post a video from 9 years ago with my friend Lenny running his boat to Nassau and back.

 
Couple things, 1) love me some Lenny. 2) How much fuel does that beast eat? That has to be like, what, a 42 footer?
 
Lenny Kravitz certainly pumps out some great tunes. That boat is sweet and will make a Florida to Bahamas run seem like a quick trip. I wonder how many times the CG has stopped him in that thing given the type of boat.
 
Awesome Magnum - Katrin Theodoli can still build a mean boat......RIP Don Aronow - I hear the interior of that boat is wild too

Watched the movie "Speed Kills" a few weeks with John Travolta playing Don Aronow. Didn't realize what it was about when renting it, but afterwards did some research on Don Aronow because I was intrigued. He is responsible for Formula, Donzi, and Cigarette too right?
 
Yep - quite a guy and Northeast 188th st was quite a place.....
 
What a legend. True inspiration.
