[V-DRIVE VIDEO]

ss wannabe:
I've been away a while. A quick history on my dad's mold (better known as the Advantage) to clear some clouded air...
My dad (Hughes), with permission from the creators of the Eagle in Santa Fe Springs, modified the deck, left the bottom unchanged, and made his mold. After building a hull (now in my possesion in Portland, as seen on Arizona Don's), dad was put in touch with Harry Christensen by McDougal. Dad and Harry agreed to a storage for a boat deal, with $1000 to be paid for each additional hull from dad's mold. I heard Glen Ward had it at his place for a period of time. Harry paid nothing, raced more than one, including LongShot and LastShot (pics were on the Advantage web site until a couple years ago), and built as many as nine total, including K-614 'Danger Zone.' The Double Eagle name has been used in reference to this pattern, but these boats diverged from the Eagle line with my dad's mold. The deck looks similar, but lacks the anglar ridge down the center, and the radius slope at the rear. At some point, Harry apparently splashed one of his race boats in order to build a mold with a strut shroud. Last I heard, any flat molds in Advantage's possesion have long since past their usefullness, having been out in the sun too many years. Also heard Mrs. Christensen purchased on of Harry's old race flats and gave it to his nephew in SoCal somewhere.
BTW - I'd love to see pics/video of any of these boats. Marc, pass on some info about this boat going to Washington on Father's Day! -BH Hey B.H. Havent talked to you in a long time! I have video of Harry running at long beach I think in 92 and Burley in 94 and I have photos of Danger Zone and Last Shot. call anytime 909 989-8682 Jerry Griffin (The Video Guy)

Jerry I'm watching that tape you sent me. I have a new respect for the guys that go in circles. I REALLY liked the short section between 2000 and 2001. I also posted those other pics.
Thanks again.
