How Cool Is Cru?

The kid is only four years old, but after seeing him at the Big Cat Poker Run in Discovery Bay, Calif., last month and the Lake Powell Challenge in Page, Ariz., this month, I have a feeling little Cru Noack knows he’s a cool kid. Now whether he knows how cool he is or how good he has it is another story as his parents, Cherilyn and Josh Noack, are two key members of Teague Custom Marine, the Valencia, Calif.-based company founded by Cru’s grandfather (and Cherilyn’s dad), Bob Teague.

Not only does Cru rock his very own TCM-embroidered youth lifevest from Lifeline Race Gear at events, he can already tell you what kind of boats his family owns and what size the boats are whether it’s the brand new M31 Widebody from DCB Performance Boats the Teagues debuted at the Big Cat Poker Run or the family’s 40-foot Skater Powerboats catamaran or the new 26-foot Adrenaline Custom Powerboats cat Josh and Cherilyn picked up in late August and are planning to rig and power with twin Mercury Racing 300R engines.

I don’t think he’s driving any boats on his own yet, but surely that isn’t too far away—at least when he starts asking to take charge of the wheel and throttles.
