We just made a custom 3 degree wedge that pitched the rudder back 3 degrees away from the transome on Aqua-Mania.
Also what saved Aqua-Mania when coming to fast into the turn with My Way, where the newly installed prop shaft brakes designed by Turbine Marine, that we just completed on that boat a week before. They where built for exactly this reason.
I was told by the throttle man that they where pumping the brakes HARD in that turn to slow down. My Way on the other hand just came in to hot trying to pass Aqua.
Glad everyone is fine.

Bill,Gregg, Bob, Rich....HEADS UP>>> There's an offshore race in Sarasota this weekend !! And we would enjoy the company (Big piston or Turbine) on the racecourse..plenty of limelight to go around!

small print....... you will have to turn...fast...like 50 times...actually ..you going to have to turn ridiculously fast...like 50 times...and... there is no lunch stop (wtf)....and unfortunately, no one cares who made it to the first turn, first.....oh..and you can't slow down for 80 miles..(sorry, it's just kinda how it is).. probably will be other boat traffic on the course (no jet skis though) so you will have to avoid them..if possible ....yeah and well one last thing...the water probably won't be flat as a pancake. (I know.. really? )

Seriously, were making some calls to see if we can get to lay down a little bit .... no one has called us back yet so your props will most likely get some airtime.

So pack your beast up and come show us how it's done in front of 75k fans. (or pack your family and friends up and come say hello and hang with all (your friends) the racers and crews in the pits)...either way ,we'd ALL love to see you guys at one of the best races of the year!!


XOXO
