Hummmm.
What is SBI?
Hey Stormrider! It would be a lot cheaper than you would think. Email me at [email protected] and we can discuss. Unless he is broke, he can run this season. And I dont need the cash so would consider trades of all kinds as long as its worth more than im asking. Lol Ray

Wow!
I didnt know they ran down here. It will take some time to get the boat ready and Marathon is too soon but Ft Laud might be possible. I got the motor sounding great! The SSM is good to go. Next is the steering. I need to fix what I got cause im not dropping no 4 grand on a new system. Time will tell. I have it working but it feels like its got a ton of air in it. Its like 12 turns lock to lock. Should be half that. Certainly not driveable but I havent really messed with it yet.
Are most boats setup for one man to throttle and the other to steer? Mine has two sit down bolsters but is setup for the driver to also throttle. Any one run that way? Ray

If you are serious about running SBI, let me know what you need, I have a bunch of guys on both coasts of FL that can help out. Most boats are set up for one to throttle, and the other to steer, but we have won national and world championships with the 24 Pantera set up as a pleasure boat, so it is up to you, but I drove that 24, and it is tough to drive, throttle, and tab the boat all at once.

Well....
It all sounds interesting! I need to first get a handle of what the boat needs to do all this. Definitely not interested in running the whole schedule. The cost would be prohibitive (Not only the cost of racing but the cost of the divorce I would end up going through). But it seems like there are a couple of dates that are close enough to make it fun. I should have a better idea of the steering situation by the end of the week and will keep you posted. Thanks! Ray
