I'm looking very serious at the smaller CC boats. Spectre,Concept and Carrera.
Someone should definitely get a shootout together. It would be nice to see a fair shootout with same power,same weight,same fuel load etc.
I also wish there were a sportsman's class at some of the offshore races for these type boats.
I'll shut up now.

Well, I would like to seriously put this together and have a fair report done on these performance cc's. I will need the help in some other people to fairly pull this off. My thought process is working and I will start the evaluation form. We need to set a date and I will look into a hotel with dock space on the water as all boats need to be run on the same day and with in the same time space.
Carrera, yes all boats should be run full of fuel. I would like to not make this just a speed run as there is so much more to the performance of a CC.

Mike sounds good to me, hopefully we can test them on a choppy day. Like you said "it's not just about speed". Cause any boat can mark high speeds with calm water and a good wind at it's back.

. We just finished having are boats ran and tested by Hot Boat Mag. in the June issue (36' open 3/300 Merc.). There you can see what they think of the boats along with numbers. Mike and Mark if you didnt see it, send me an email with your address and i'll see if i can get you a copy.
