This was a great trip and some really good people run the event.
I hope they don't miss the decorations that my daughter "borrowed"... http://www2.***boat.com/image_center/data/520/831102_0217_Medium_.JPG

Thanks for sharing the Pics SD, looks like a cool and different place to boat. That boat storage deal is a little "different".

About 32-34k all setup. Only problem is that you cant make left hand turns on a single engine boat at high speeds. Just ask Rocketman about that one. :D :jawdrop: :hammer2:

RH rotation cleaver running on the surface, go to turn and it works as a paddle wheel. :eek: Talk about doing a tight turn at high speeds. :2purples:
That boat is basically a straight line boat with only correcting turning done on plane. Hard or tight turns need to be done off plane.

His setup is sick! I have never seen a Whipple like that. I thought I read somewhere they had developed one for the drag racing scene but it was banned? Is that one of them?

Yes, that is one of the big Screw Whipples (ala PSI style) that NHRA banned...pretty sick setup...
