I think the weight helps Apache in the rough stuff

Re: Broken Arrow!!
Tommy's turbos are making a conservative 1200 although he just made a set for someone to run on race fuel over 1900 hp.
naturally we want them to run so 1200 sounds great.
Ed Tommy and I were just talking last weekend about how interesting a rough water battle between kemosabe at 17500 and Spirit of apache at 22,000 would be. 17500 and 47 feet is still a very heavy long boat and the throttle response is so much more significant that you could throttle out of a lot of problems. we are actually worried that it won't weigh enough so we are going to put in extra bulkheads for strength. The first 47 will have three turbos in it and hopefully will be in the newly refurbished mold in three weeks and completeted for smoke. I for one can not wait for a sea trial or 50.

Was that a rhetorical question Parnell, or do you expect an answer
