Speeding

Click photo for larger.
On our vacation to Sanibel Island last week we booked an ecotour. We like these little jaunts, where you are typically ferried via a passenger craft to a little more remote part of the place you are vacationing, and usually learn a lot about the wildlife that inhabits it. We even saw some dolphins swimming around this day.

There was a lot of marine traffic and this guy took the cake. He was bringing it. I saw him on the bow a long ways away and barely had time to get the camera ready for this shot he was going so fast.

What's the point of having a fast boat if you don't go fast?

This area we were in didn't seem suited to the speed this guy was going. I am guessing he was blazing at around 70 or 80. I would think that you would want to actually get out into the ocean a bit before opening it up.

Welcome to Florida :)

Heh.

BTW, I think we can figure out who the owner of that boat voted for.

I thought that was pretty funny myself.
