Thunder Man: The Don Aronow story
ScottPaxton24 January 2010
Warning: Spoilers
I first lived in Miami, from July 2009 until August of 2009 a short time, though I heard from a very trusty friend of all the stuff going on in Miami. The one thing that really interested me was a man that was moved from New Jersey after making it in the construction business there, moved to Miami, Florida. Start racing and building race boats. Cigarette boats, yes the ones that you see all the rich people cruising around in and picking up hot ladies. His story is a great one, about how he built Cigarette Boats, and four other fast boats in southern Florida. His policy was very simple if you have the cash then he'll build you a boat " no questions asked ", think where did you get the money - where do you work, no problem, if you can afford the boat than you can have one or two, and even more if you like to. The real amazing history of this all is the reason that on the side of the Cigarette Boat that has the Number 1 on the back side, at the time their was no other boat faster than the #1 Cigarette boat. There are other people in the same town who have made fast boats, though Don Aronow was the one that raced and built " Thunder Alley " The Thunder Man ", and the only Man to lead a around the world Offshore Racing Team and Boats that beat everyone out there in the world. He mix with everyone that had money and everyone knew Don Aronow the Fastest Boats on the water. He sold to Drug Lords and aided in shipping their product in a faster and non catchable means. He also sold to the wealthy and truly Mad Money people out there at the time, and they are still around. He made " Blue Thunder " for the U.S. Customs to catch the Drug Lords fast boat, and then was the end of the Fastest Man Alive on the Water, the Thunder Man - and the legacy of Thunder Alley that is left behind and still runs today. Like I said there are still people out there that make extremely fast boats, and they have been around for along time, faster with technology now of days, though the old school can beat any thing new, you just have to use your head, it is not that hard.

The man I met in Miami, has a commercial fishing boat that truly goes 55 M.P.H. at half throttle, I know I was on his boat when he showed that speed. Oh man, is that fast, just image what would happen if he put that in a Go-Fast Boat, watch out. Just like the old days of Hot Rods. I truly miss the time I spent in Miami, though I will return.

It would be a dream to even play the acting part as Don Aronow, his life just took off, money from every where in the world wanted an Don Aronow Boat. Even the young kid that started a Go-Fast company and met, became a very close friend of Don Aronow. The people I meet in Miami, could tell you the whole true story, just by listen. Just have to see what they came up with.
