I'm called a bull ****ter but I'm serious. This ain't no
diamond marine fire breathing 280.
Setup setup setup and my hull weight is #486.
That's gotta help a bit.

I leave my house at 6. Ramp by 8:30 and at the race
course by 10. I run big lake Harris to the Harris canal to
Eustis then thru the Dora canal to the course.

Well 6:30 was respectable for a Saturday morning, or so I thought. But 4:50? Over achiever. Lol
