Re: Gecko boat?
The F1-70 boat was owned and throttled by Dave and Driven By Steven in SBI about three years ago. They are out of NY/NJ area. Steven is a friend of mine and I saw them race alot. The boat was very strong at the time with a 500HP and I believe they won a Championship...

Re: Gecko boat?
Some history of the Gecko boat.
The boat was built over the winter of 2000-2001. The boat is a 2001. It raced the 2001 season until a spin out in St. Pete. caused major medical problems for throttle guy Dominic, He almost lost his arm. The boat has my old 500efi in it, we swapped it out before the second race in Key West 2001. We had one of the lowest HP motor's(Dynoed @473 at innovation) Gecko motor had 495HP, so we switched.
The boat is actually all Green gelcoat under the Gecco paint job. The boat was competitive and runs very good. I believe this boat was for sale for $43,000 when Diamond Dave bought it. (What a steal!)
