Awesome pic!! Is that a new deck cover I see with the viper logo on it? Does that come standard with new boats now?

boats 1 2 4 5 6 and 7 have the current covers that you can get with the boat.  They're "extra" but it seems everyone gets them. ;)  Matt's boat (3) has either an old rondar cover or something else.  8 has the APS cover which is actually VERY nice as well, it zips only at 1 shroud and fits a bit tighter.  Boats 9 and 10 are also rondar covers, but those boats are two+ years older so the covers are blue and might be different in other ways as well.  The new covers DO sport a nice viper 640 logo on the keels.  IMHO, we should all pony up and get our sail numbers on them as well, as that'd look amazing, but just having 10 vipers all lined up, all covered looks pretty amazing anyway. :)

My wife was down in Newport Monday, helping with a Paralympic sport camp for Wounded Warriors. She come home last night and said, "Holy cow! There's an incredible lineup of Vipers at Sail Newport, did you know that?  I meant to take a picture." Told her, yes, I know and that she didn't need to bother with a cell phone pic  ;)

That lineup does make an impression.
