Charlie, would this be one of yours?
Not the best full length pics.
Nice hardware.
3man sitdown.
The BRT is narrower than a 24 Banana/Cig, like a Pantera or Superboat with a real long nose. I've seen a couple here in CT and they run nice.

BRT's were built 2 miles from us.We rigged and re-rigged about 8 of them. Big blocks sat a little heavy in the water.Best package was th e 320EFI/350,Mercrs first analog efi motor.Stock 5.7L ran 58 mph, 320efi ran 67-68, 454 330hp ran around 70-72.I remember one had a #3ssm w/ 700hp motor.Insane ride!!! If I remember right it was called "Snake Bite".

Offshore Racing, Classic Magnums
IF it runs 80 all day, it belongs in class 4 not 6. Will this boat make Patchouge or Point Pleasant this year?? If it runs like a 28, it should do great in the Point race.
