It allows a path to bring air down to the props. When getting on plane you need the aeration to break the props free .

I was just answering his question........But I guess if they QUIT, then yeah, who cares at this point....... :rolleyes:

Re: Motley Crew's Damage Photos
 

I guess those big inboards don't have the power they claim too huh? You and I don't have ANY problem breaking our props free with those little egg beaters we got eh Sharkey? :evilb: :drink: :D :p

Re: Motley Crew's Damage Photos
 

It very interesting how the damage to both drives is so symetrical. I hope all involved can work things out amicably and the boat is back racing soon.

I see that the "man" himself, Mr. Hledin was in attendance. :cool:

Sharket & DPT,Please elaborate on what you mean about if they quit it does not matter.Are the boys going to QUIT racing or what and if so what brought that on I hope it was not the 150 extra pounds.If so that is just another blow the sport can not afford. :(

400 lb's :eek:

I can't believe they handicap the fast boats. :rolleyes: That's the most chicken chit thing I've heard. If you can't keep up get a faster boat. :rolleyes:

Re: Motley Crew's Damage Photos
 

so on boats with radical pitch props you need to blow them out to get on plane?

Re: Motley Crew's Damage Photos

Sort of like trying to push start a vehicle in 3rd gear..... :drink:
