I believe you'll find some on Skater's website as well as a diary of pics as it was built on Boatfreaks.

Awesome Boat & Owner & Crew!

Does the airflow come from the sides back in towards the scoops- like wrapping over/around the cockpit?

What did raising the scoops do- more/better air flow?

At those speeds do areodynamics come in to play?

"I HEARD" thats the problem..i hear all kinds of BS all the time but i don't post it until i SEE it for myself..i have about 100 pics of the boat after the accident and walked all over it and i can say there is no "blades in the glass" the reason the boat is not out running is a legal one and nothing to do with damage.. but I'm sure you know better than me...
