In the early pictures I remember thinking the tunnel got really small towards the back for how large it was up front.

that being said the boat looks amazing and from what I have seen from the Statement V they are top notch build quality.

If all the air was running out of the back of the tunnel, it would be "packed" right? Looks to me like its working.

I agree i would say what is "looking" wet is just excess air being bled out the sides...... has to be another 10 mph in aerodynamics just by putting on a engine hatch?????

great Job statement

Jim Wiley was on the cat at 180 too, I think they gave a couple rides that day.
Stu rode on the blue V, he says it was a nice ride too.

Looks Great!!!! Works Great!!! Cool!!!:drink:
