Default Mariah MX19 on Knoxville Channel 8 News

Hey guys, just a stupid fun-fact; I had my '92 MX19 down at Norris Lake (Tennessee) last week. We made a run to Norris Dam, and the state-operated marina, and encountered a patrol boat. As it turns out, they were hauling a reporter and camera man from Channel 8 News, out of Knoxville, doing a story on a group trying to get some government regulation on boat size/horsepower on the lake. Here's the link to the website:http://www.volunteertv.com/. On the Channel 8 homepage, in the lower right-hand side as you scroll down, is the video section. Jump ahead a few pages (currently page 9), and look for the thumbnail photo of a red/white boat with a red bimini top. The story title is "Group called Friends of Norris Lake......". Part way thru the news clip is my MX19 heading into the marina. Towards the end of the clip, my son and a buddy of his are on the red/white/black Honda waverunners. Not everyday you get to see a Mariah on the news!

    That awesome lakelizard!

    But I have to agree with ShabahZ250, your kickin up quite a tsunami behind your Mariah there and with that bright red striping, the fishermen won't have any problems tracking you with their RPGs....
