Wow,

What kind of boat is that?

What did they do to prep the bottom for the speed cote?

Carnuba wax has always worked for me to keep my topside paint in good shape.

hi
the boat is called a drop deck wing boat build for formula future racing
formula future is wher kids aged 12 to 16 race with 15hp motors with a top speed of about 40 mph running a cleaver prop.
they primed the bottom then added graphite powder to clear coat and sprayed it on.
we used speed coat on our 25 hp race boat and got about a 2 - 4 mph increase in speed.
