If your talking about the 46 Skater with 1' wider tunnel. I looked that boat over & talked to alot of people & I would not brag to much on the mod. craftmenship or wheither it helped or hurt or was just a push. BTW if it is the 46 it still has a tunnel extension on it but it's rotted from the inside & ready to fall off.

It may have had as many as 4 tunnel tabs. I think it is impossible to say if there was any improvement or not when it was all over.

The old thread about the current record said the results were going to be announced in Miami at the show.
