Q-ball,
I too would highly recommend Andy Bloom as a throttleman. He grew up around offshore racing and has experience in just about everything that floats. HeII, his mom probably has more racing experience than half the guys out there racing this year. Andy's raced everything from an older Super V with seriously sick horsepower, to a beautiful 28 Cigarette with twins, to my Factory 1 Active Thunder. He will definitely test your testicular fortitude, but will always keep you in trim and flying low. That, and he just might have a few tricks up his sleeve when it comes to racing setup and rigging.
