Understanding Offshore Power Boat Racing
By Michelle May - Schmidt

<Snip>
Outlaw series also includes specially designed boats where the hull is the same, such as the One Design V Class, affectionately known as the "bat boat". This class is growing with many teams using this as a "second" boat for their team, because it is so affordable. It is also an inexpensive way to start out racing, so you may find a few rookies up against the veterans in this class. New this year will be the ability to lease the boat for the season, or by the race.

Hi!

Contact Ulrik Yngvarsson at b23@privat.utfors.se He is a champ and build B23. The B23 runs 94 mph with a 200HP and 105 mph with a 300 HP. They were made last year in kilo records session in Sweden. So, they're accurate two way speeds. The boat had two on board, a minimum weight (~1400lbs with XR2, and more with 2,5), all UIM racing gear.. The only info not told is that the motors were not stock. Still very impressive numbers, since the motors weren't "unlimited", but blueprinted according to UIM rules. The guy who made these records is amazing with his boats. He can make any boat run like nobody else can. He hasn't raced very much lately, but a couple of years ago he won 2 litre world championship. Here's a photo of the boat from last year.

Cheers and good luck!
