How did you manage to get all the way to St. Louis to become a victim of bait (#286) and switch (SE hull)? Sounds to me like #286 had something "different" built into it by BeBe Crum? Bought one of the first Seebold all composite SST140 hulls they made. Was a porpoising dog that never did run right. Hull halves split apart in the first race it was ever in at Portland Oregon. Bill Joule and Tim Seebold were the only ones who made them run right. The rest of us struggled. Finally dumped it for 1/3 of its cost in 2008 when it was clear that OPC racing would tank for good.Quote:
