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

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.

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.

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

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