Entry list for SBI says 41' for Sailor Jerry and 37' long for Twisted Metal. Since the teams fill out those entries, those are the lengths I went with.

Frank, I thought you and Chris were racing the Bandit, I saw it on the entry list and at the race site but never made it in the water?

Thank you SBI for the live Stream. I know you had issues yesterday but I still believe its better than nothing. Is there any way that possibly when you do the live Stream that someone could keep track of the positions of the teams and announce that more often maybe after each lap?
I agree it's better than nothing

I even heard him say at the end that Teague was close to lapping CC. I was like huh no way, so that makes it even worse on their part

Not to worry, Eric. You had incorrect information supplied to you. It's on me 100 percent for not catching those errors. I know the correct boat lengths.

Nice job.

After reading this article, I am really confused. Last time I looked, both of Bob Bull's boats ran in Superboat Unlimited. According to the results, #3 finished 1st, running all the required laps, and #03 finished 6th. Maybe I missed something?

Both CMS teams were included in Eric's summary of the Unlimited class. Not sure what's confusing you ... is it the results on the SBI site? And are you wondering about race results or season points (National Championship) results?. Both are currently on the SBI site (http://superboat.com/) and downloadable as PDFs.

I guess my confusion is in the reversal of the boat #'s in the article. Also the way it was worded , about the Superboat Unlimited class and then in the afternoon race, it sounded like it was two separate races. No need to get excited, maybe some times I should just mind my own business. I have nothing but respect for the men and women who cover and report the sport for us. Have a nice day.

You should not "mind your own business"—no way—I was just trying to understand your confusion. (It takes a bit to get me excited, much less annoyed, so don't sweat it). I can see how you actually could read it as two different races. And I'll check the boat numbers. The goal is always the same—getting the story right. Nice day had.

Had some issues last minute, and wasn't sure if he was going to be able to make the race because of an engine problem we had earlier in the week testing. So late thurs when we still didn't know I pulled the plug and cancelled my rooms. Hopefully maybe we'll be able to get something together for Key West.
