That a reel sweet rig..yes I am sorry you got to give her up too!!

Good luck on the sale and I am sure you'll be back at her some day soon !!

Who's trailer is that??

[CHRIS C.]

THE TRAILER IS AN EAGLE ONE ALUMINUM TRAILER. ITS VERY LIGHT. AND WONT RUST. CALL EAGLE ONE PERFORMANCE, THEY WILL HOOK YOU UP WITH ONE.

Chris,

That's a real nice rig, sorry you have to sell it. Do you know what the bare hull lay-up weight is?

Uncle Tony;)

[CHRIS C.]

the boat weighs 586, thats with the jackplate, seats, steering, rigging, fuel cell, trim pump, battery boxes, fuel pump. pretty much everything but the motor and batteries.

[CHRIS C.]

IVE ALSO GOT 2 SSM CLEAVER PROPS: DEWALD 4 AND 5 BLADE I USED ON A VI GEARCASE.

Chris,

Thats light I like that. Right now I'm thinking about buying a 1/4 master, I have heard that they are real quick and stable at high speed. I'm not real familiar with your hull, but it look great, in fact it's awesome looking.

I will ask the racers I know about your hull and see if any of them are familiar with it's performance and handling characteristics.

Thanks for your reply and godd luck.


Uncle Tony;)

[CHRIS C.]

THE 1/4 MASTER IS A GREAT RACE BOAT, I HAD ONE LAST YEAR. THEY JUST SUCK FOR RIVER BOATS, NO ROOM AND NO RIDE, BUT HARD TO BEAT IN THE 1/4 MILE. THE WAY MY BOAT PERFORMS IS KINDA A MIX BEWTEEN A MIRAGE RIVER RACER AND A QUARTERSHOT, I CANT TELL MUCH DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE THREE EXCEPT FOR CRUISING AROUND ON THE RIVER, THE CYCLONE HAS AN GREAT RIDE. IF YOU WANT A 1/4 MASTER I KNOW A GUY THATS GOT A REAL TRICK ONE FOR SALE, COMPLETE W/ EVERYTHING EXCEPT A GEARCASE AND POWERHEAD, A REALLYL NICE BOAT AND A VERY FAST BOAT. I KINDA LIKE BEING ABLE TO GO RACE ONE WEEKEND THEN GO RIDE SOMEONE THE NEXT. IF YOUR INTERESTED IN MINE OR THE 1/4 MASTER LET ME KNOW. THANKS CHRIS

[CHRIS C.]

THAT WAS MY 1/4 MASTER LAST YEAR, ITS IN TEXAS NOW.

Chris,

When is a good time to call you?

Uncle Tony;)

[TUG]

I see your stepping up to a lighter boat:cool:
I'm sure the big blocks will be happy to see you in October:D Have you sold your Riot yet? cyu TUG

Tug,

I think I need a lighter quicker boat, I keep hearing about these 130 mph 1/4 mile lake boats that are comming for me.

I'm not sure if I'm gonig to sell my hull or not. I need to find a hull I'm happy with before I sell my Riot, so I will have 2 boats for a while. And if all else fails.................. MO NITROUS.

Uncle Tony:D
