From what I know and this is not 100% fact, it spun while making a midrange speed wide turn, and possibly hit a wake while spinning, which caused it to grab and then roll. To my knowledge, there was no hull failure prior to spin/roll.

it was under for 3 months, it was 83 ft down and it took that long to find a diver to go below 50 ft.


hull was sold to the diver, he resold it and its in virginia now last i heard, i salvaged everything and still have engine and drive. may do another, but im kind of worn out on projects for a while.

Griff,

That sounds kind of similar to the story about the Formula that sits up on posts, like signage, in front of Hilltop Marine near Cumberland.
