The 36 F2 boat is impressive in person. The new 28 will be really awesome.

I can tell you that my 'old' 28 aint too bad either....here is a vid of the Nunez boys ripping it up:ernaehrung004:

The Black F2 boat ran w/ twin 525 mercs race ready
( 9000 pounds ) 93.8 mph with Steve Shubble driving and my son Jo on throttles.
I will get Jo to post a picture of the Speedo later.

I thought it had 500 in it , but still very VERY impressive.

Are you going to KW ?

90+ mph and racing, why not use a canopy?

Because it was NOT allowed in F2 class!
I had the first canopied race boat back in 1986 (28' pantera)
I raced it in the old B class back in the mid 80's
Now you know the rest of the story.............

We know the side by side, pleasure, 525 36 will do 90+.......the engine room of the orange and silver one was set up for a full staggard. What will a staggard 525 36 do? How about a staggard 700 nxt?

What about for V

yesrej 10-23-2008 08:10 PM

would love to see a 700 36. that would be a sweet boat...

DareDevil 10-23-2008 08:18 PM

JO ,or PP ,,,,,, how hard ,,or how much work would it be to convert the black F-2 in to a staggerd ?

I think staggerd 525(600 HP) and ITS would be cool.?!

What u think ?
And then race it in P-3 against FRANK .LOL:evilb:

Yes, for Super V you have to have a canopy.

Next year (2009) OSS will adopt the P1 (European racing) where you have the SuperV (Evolution) and the Super Sport which is very similar to the old F2 APBA rules, open cockpit, side by side engines etc.

I think that is great!
Next year the same boat could race Europe and the US, therefore having a real "World Champ" that is really great!!!

Now IF we could find a sponsor for the black 35' race boat, we will be there, the black boat is extremely competitive, and not necessarely because Jo is my son, He is a great aggressive racer and only races to WIN.
You can ask anybody that has raced against him and they will tell you.
