Bob, we had us a little 8.20 boat this weekend, first time out with it, we'll have it fixed this week though. Boat ran straight and clean, no issues there and that's the most important thing with a new boat, as you well know.

It's a shame about the jet, it was squirreling around right out of the gate, then it was darting at the finish line, don't know what happened after that, too much water spray from my point of view.

Hey bill, that's great! is this an all new hull? or same hull with more power? Thought the one in your sig line was the same boat the deaton's have run for years?? (don't know why my "return" key won't work in here. Can't start a new paragraph). my feeling is, someone that's going to lay up a boat that's going to have 3000+ hp in it better know wtf they're doing. to have a 2 year old hull that's had repetitive issues, then completely disintegrate around the driver, is beyond ridiculous in this day and age. things have changed in layup technology over the past 15 years. there's no excuse for this crap.

BP, sold the jet and bought a Hydro, Kurtis 501.

It's the fastest they let you go when you won't stop looking at the other lane....

Hard to see in the other lane from a capsule . . . . .guess I better stop at Pro Eliminator

[whipper]

dam is this the boat

Holly crap!! Is this caused by more power than the hull could handle and the thrust pushed the motor threw the hull? Looks nasty. Must freek the Sh*T out of the driver seeing your bow buckling in front of you!!

[mirage243]

He never knew what happened till he stopped tumbling and the fog in his brain went away.

[Fl Boy in ILL]

WOW thats very nasty, I sure hope he's OK. I left before any of this happened so I didn't see it.

thats my thoughts the motor came loose under wot and drove in the boat maybe it was just a simple miss calculation on hp /cause and effect
they will get it right
and from what i hear the driver / billy will recover
