Yes,You could see it was riding high and spilling air from the sides under the running surface. When the port side rose up the thrust from the stb prop took over and walked the stern to the side. It looked like the props must have been swinging in. Cool video, My guess is it didn't scare him it just pissed him off.

Not quite, but did a whole bunch of damage. I don't think it even sunk. There are pics somewhere with it on the trailer after the crash.

Speaking of bow overs, Who remembers seeing Cat Can Do blow over at Reggies Kilo in '99. They got lucky and didn't get hurt or hurt the boat to bad. The readied the boat shrunk wrapped the sponson tip and raced and won the race later the same weekend. You never can tell what might happen.

If you get down here give me a shout (225-939-2010). I'll be pulling my engines Saturday morning/afternoon but after that, time to get my drink on!!!! Sunday should be the day for some antics, too!
