AZ,
good observation, I think that they don't want too much setback so they put what looks like a 2" setback plate. Perhaps someone else can comment on the thickness of the setback they're using?

XCat Racing
Maritomo (a DW32 cat) showing fastest lap during practice. These are not indicators of who will win the race, practice laps and pole positions are elements precursor to the race days.

.
Congrats to Maritomo for pole position #3
The Abu Dhabi Team (boat #4 & #5) is looking strong as well!
We're cheering for Boat #5 because it's an MTI cat
we're also cheering for Shaun Torrente who is in boat #4

Jason, awesome coverage as always!
I feel so bad for Maritomo as they have just completed rebuilding their boat from a previous (owners) crash
Just very glad to see everyone is ok and walk away from it. Will race again next year I hope.
Otherwise on to the second day of racing!

Maritomo crashed in the season opener 2018. Hopefully they are able to rebuild their cat for the July XCat race. Venue will be in Lake Maggiore, Italy
