When we were designing and running for records in RC boats we did some testing with a gyro, (from an RC helicopter), controlling a wing on a canard style 3 point hydro. With that technology, on your 4 point, would it eliminate the blow over issue? Worked, but was then illegal.

[QUOTE=EYEBURN;2654623]The first boat i owned was a switzer, kinda cool to see this one.
My first boat was a Switzer also. A shooting star with an inline 6 black max. It was a beast!

Thanks for the compiment, but I wouldn't be me if I didn't point out that there never was a Mercury inline 6..."Black Max".
The Black Max was the first Mercury V-6.
Don't feel bad. A "famed" boating writer..... who shall remain nameless...... (Initials "BB").... has droned on and on about his early boating "experiences" with his "in line 6 Black Max "tower of power".
It didn't exist for him either.
