A staple on the New Jersey go-fast powerboat scene, Anthony Sauta’s 39-footer arrived at Potter Performance Engines with more than 300 hours on its Mercury Racing mills. Photo courtesy/copyright Tim Sharkey/Sharkey Images.
Several years ago, I rode with longtime friends Anthony Sauta and Bob Christie in Sauta’s 2007 Outerlimits SL 39 V-bottom during the Miami Boat Show Poker Run to Islamorada in the Florida Keys. Sauta drove, Christie throttled and mutual buddy Joe Nasso and I held on tight. It was a memorable ride—one that left me impressed with the teamwork and communication skills of Sauta and Christie—with some of my favorite people in the high-performance powerboat community.
