That must have been one wild ride!!! What went wrong? Too much trim? Too much throttle? Or probably a combination of things?

See what you get for trying to stay in front of Wazzup in the turns.

Just glad it didn't end up looking like this.

Boat needs more weight in the ass, It feels very slippery in the turns.
The turbines are light and we need to play with the CG a bit.
It felt good in the turns at 70 and we decided to run a turn in the low 80's and it was too much. We plan on testing it alot before Atlantic City

Nice way to break it in Scotty. But in the future always blame it on the driver thats what I do.

See you guys in Sarasota.

looked like a wild ride, as well as a flame out in the motors, salt water and turbines dont mix well, glad to see all are ok.
