This boat has exceeded expectations. I remember the goal as 90 mph (best case) an on the first sea trial, full of fuel, three 200+ guys in the boat and no engine hatch it beat that #by a lot and with the engines on the bump box.
To say Bobby is happy is an understatement as this boat surprised us all. I don't know where this bottom came from or who designed what but it runs really well with modest power.

Nice to see the other... old guys ....work involved here....Howard. I remember like it was yesterday, lining up against these two guys, Bobby on one side and Howard on the other at a start of an Open class race.
Great to see all that experience paying off right out of the box.

Bob, Ole and myself made all the necessary adjustment's before Warpath departed for the U.K., just to make sure all systems were operating correctly. We stopped for a photo, showing off some tools of the trade.
