[V-DRIVE VIDEO]

Mike, this years Burley race was the first time that boat had ever been in the water. The cap was filled with an edge in it, the flow coat in the floor had orange pigment, it tops my list for all time most beautifully rigged boats. Charlie had his hands full with all that power combined with then being his first time running K. I'll slip some video of it in with your next tape. :cool:

Charlie also helped rig the late Dick Bement's boat (CREME BEMENT SS-55). It is a close twin to the k boat only is SS trim. That hull was the last hull that Lance layed up before is death. Dick passed away from cancer before the boat was completed and Charlie and his crew chief Randy did a beautiful job on it as well.
