    Yes we do have beautiful waters. However since we are just a little island in the Mediterranean, we rarely have flat water.

    A quick question guys. Take the Suwannee river, St johns river, River Ranch/Kissimme river etc for example. Are they "runnable" all year round for high performance boating? Or does the rain and other factors make them unsafe to run on? Please excuse my ignorance but the only water we have to run on here is salty so I have no idea how the lakes and rivers work.

    Thanks.

    You are 100% correct yesterday was a 10 on the water. The south shore of long island was the same.

    Boy if those Chaudron are any good in rough water would be a killer Class 7 boat without necessity of huge HP... Stock 250 and you have a killer combo.
    Beautiful.

    The 25 Chaudron would definitely be a nice rough water boat. I am surprised they don't run long tabs in the Rough water.

    The Velocity is 21 ft 4" legal for F-2 Ski racing. With tabs and ballast it should run well in our Rough water Races. We have 3 Catalina events yearly with several practice runs. Our River and Lake races are much Faster but Havasu can get very Rough.

    I have run The Bernico for Catalina the last 4 seasons. We did 1 hour 2 minutes last year. Still looks brand new not one stress crack.

    2 degrees this weekend and now it's snowing. Always good to see "new" SOB's out there being built like the Chaudron. Summer where are you.

    Did your newly designed Australian Velocity SOB get built and rigged? It's cold here and we need to see some new boats!
