Your secret's safe with me.

Believe it or not, that table was once offered by Olhausen Billiards.

They are currently offering tables featuring Harley Davidson, Budweiser, Jack Daniels, and John Deere.

Indmar used to do a LT1 motor for boats - but without an optispark...that thing would have lasted about 10 min in the water, lol.

"Classless" is too nice of a word to describe that dude.
The boat is absolute class, though.

What's funny is probably how many of us know guys like that. I used to play softball with a guy whose vocabulary included the word "MF" every 2-3 words. It was exhausting being around the guy.

I came across a website the talks about "how not to be a tool bag" and it's pretty funny. I should submit that video!

That boats been turning up annually on the C6 forum for several years - - like to pool table, just people and companies trading on the name . . . I suspect GM either licenses- - or litigates them!

The Corvette boat, or one just like it was commissioned by GM. I remember the boat being towed around the country to be used at dealer promotions. It actually made a stop right here in Hop-town.

The video would have been just as effective in presenting the boat without the classless foul- mouthed D-bag narration . . .
