Default Spy photos of the new Bad Boy in town

The NJ Boyz got together this morning at Smitty's Marine, the home of Wazzup Racing. They left in a caravan for the SBI World Championship races in New Orleans next week.

These are the local racers who come out for the OPA/SBI Northeast divisional races. They're packed up and heading to New Orleans right now with a chip on thier shoulder. Looking to take over the big show in NO.

Kurt and Bandit racing as well as Augie and his big Scarab left two days ago, Randy and Typhoon are coming over directly from Miami. The rest of the Boyz can be seen at http://www.homestead.com/njoffshore/...ansorbust.html

You'll also see the first photos of the new 38' Bad Boy double step V bottom. The second one will be the new Wazzup Super V with a canopy. Can you believe a boat was built with no hype, no web site, just build it and take it to the worlds....

Enjoy the photos and the rest of www.NJOffshore.com

Good luck guys and bring home the GOLD!!!

Ron,Any reports you can share with us on the bad boy boat,like top speed and how it handled?Looks like a nice solid ride.What size tabs will they run?I noticed it wasant on in the pick,maybe rockers?Is that really a second steering wheel or a grab rail.Over all looks nice for first one out of the box.

From what I heard the boat ran 92 on it's first run up against the limiters. Some bigger wheels will be needed to find the true top speed.

That is a grab bar mounted to the auxilary wheel mount. The hydaulics are not in place yet so the bar is stationary.

As for the tabs, I don't know. I didn't see them in the truck.

Overall the boat is very impressive especially since it's the first one to be built.

Staggered motors takes away room in the cockpit. This is a pleasure/race boat.

The next one is for Smitty. Canopied Super V. I guess it would be staggered. Not too sure.

Lets see how she does in New Orleans.
