I am pretty sure that was hull number one for the 40 a 1990. It was for sale recently on oso. Last race i saw it in was in michigan at the quake on the lake around 1992-3 with Bob kasier driving it with Jeff Sofer.

Nope, we got the first three 40' hulls. #1 went to Dubai

Sorry if this is a stupid question, how many pleasure boats vs. race boats go to Dubai? Do people run around in large Skaters for fun over there like we do?

Do you happen to know how much power Bruce Falls engines were making back in the day?

Also do you know how many cubic inch they had per engine?

Believe these are the same engines mentioned in one of Sharke's photo threads,.......all the plumbing in the lifter valley,..turbos etc.

Thanks for any insight

Jon

I think they were 354s twin turbo motors . I have a old OPT VHS TAPE of some of the races back then. I could be off, theres just some things I recall back then with boat racing:coolcowboy:g . LIKE in 1990 D50 won it all at the plymouth mass race it was a white 32 scorpion hull, on the way back to the wet pits we offered them a beer, they laughed and we tossed them a coke or water. that was a great race big swells on the inside of the coarse from the sand bar. we were in 2 footers . its a cool FFvideo. ARTps that fall I bought my 1st hp boat.

Tank....

This was Mini-B in 2003 back when he was just a single starry eyed Cigarette 27 owner!!!!

Now he is Big-B and I am sure shy of T2x has grown up to be a very resourceful "Skaterniac". :drink:
