Going to pull motor Sat. & start taking cockpit, floor, gas tank out.

The actual hole is about 6" X 6" which explains why we didn't
take on enough water to go down. The rest of the damage
is alot of delamination and torn glass. It is certainly fixable. Will be taking it to fiberglass guy in a few weeks.

Look forward to going at it again with you guys next season.

i was thinkin there should be a twin engine class 5....maybe up to 35ft, there is alot of twn engine boats out there with stock power that would be competitive. Not trying to single out the twin engine boats currently running class 5, because i do like the higher boat count.....but....i feel they do have an advantage at most race sites.....any thoughts from other class 5 guys??

adrenaline rush
The twin motors grandfathered in are Small Block Only boats and Twin Outboards. The rest is right, 30' and under. Over 30', welcome to Class 4!!!!

If by fastest team you mean they break out, then they have it.
