We were fishing off the houseboat parking lot at Wahweap and I heard a sweet noise like big motors. I turned, and this was flying by. "Mamba" on the side, only visible at speed. Closed cockpit, snake scales paint job. At a stop, the name is completely underwater. Very fast, very cool. As you can see, they were a ways away from us, as well as the other boats. This is the best shot I got.

It made three passes that I saw.

What a beautiful boat -- we saw it running on Sunday afternoon in front of Wahweep. I actually went to the last dock early Monday morning and saw it tied up. Its Mike's new Mamba 2 :D 51' Outerlimits GTX :D
Words can't describe it - just crazy.

The boat is siick. It was painted by TAOD and they did an awesome job. A good friend of mines sister is married to the owner so when we were in Powell a few weeks ago a bunch of my buddys got to ride on it. They said at 105 its amazing how smooth that thing rides, like going 30 in my boat.

Pictures just don't do it justice. I've seen big, nice boats at the shows, but there is nothing like fishing while one goes by fast nearby - that's what it is meant for, and you can tell when he's on plane.:)

Here is some more pics of Mamba in Sept of 05'. He was getting fuel next to me in Page. Unbelievable boat. Hell of a nice guy also.

Seems folks are talking of two different boats...Mamba has been around a while....MambaII sounds pretty new.

I thought at first it was just a differently painted trailer. But it is a different boat, trailer, and truck. He seems to get a different boat every other year. I think the first Mamba was his third boat to be written up in Lake Powell Magazine. Must of liked it (Mamba) so much to get an updated version. Now that's a real "Baller"!

Yep, this is Mike's 2nd Outerlimits - Mamba 2 which is a 51 GTX, the one pictured in 05 was the original Mamba 47 GTX. I was about to head up the hill this past Friday going into Page and saw Mike headin home to Sedona with Mamba 2 -- what a rig - just beautiful :D

Two different boats - same owner. I think the first Mamba will be hard to beat asthetic-wise. Hopefully the second Mamba will be at next year's Desert Storm poker run.
Here is Mamba (1) getting called out at the 2006 Desert Storm poker run.:D
