Didn't mean teague package so much as alot of builders dyno striped to the long block with no transmission. Remember a race package runs WOT 90% of the time. I have see alot of merc 850 packages in the same hulls run with many 1000 + claims in the same hulls.Just like my C&C Merc 1200 hp thick cut five blades 38 turn the same RPMs as herings 42s. It's all #s with the only one that counts is on the GPS.

Thumbs up Happy Customer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This boat got to it's new home today at !2:00 noon in Discovery Bay CA. It was meet there by the new owner, a Skater Tech and Bob Teague himself. They ran the boat today on it's first maiden voyage for several hours and all systems worked flawlessly and the new owner is ecstatic and can't wait for Desert Storm................................

looking at the pics, I don't see any hatch hardware on the top hatch, is it a slider? (like a sunroof)

Enlarge any of those pictures and you can see they are hinged in the front and how it opens. You open the hard top, walk into the cockpit, sit down and close the top and turn on the A/c or heat. No jumping through a hole in the top or a slidding roof.

Jumping through a hole must get old real fast.

I understand that the entire top lifts up, I was referring to the small sunroof sized opening on top where a regular raceboat hatch would be. Can this be opened as well?
