There seem to be two new issues:
1. Is the name S.O.B. an issue vs P-OB class for instance?....
2. Will the S.O.B's race with, or include, inboards?
Points to ponder over hot toddy......
Merry Christmas.

S.O.B. is kinda catchy and self explanatory.
Being an issue? I don't think these guys much care what it's called, as long as they can get affordable racing on the circuit for themselves.
I think we also already have enough P in the water...

It was voted down on our rules proposal. The outboards only wanted to race against other outboards with 21 to 24 ft boats.
We will see what the final decision is after another meeting with the powers of OPA.

How can I say this a.......?

Kent,
A 21 Superboat Brand New with the new style deck is available.
Very nice styling too! Looks like a scaled down Outerlimits.
One is for sale @ New Jersey Outboards in Bayville, NJ.
It is currently rigged with new 225 HO Evinrude. Has a Hydraulic jack plate and runs around 80mph.
Beautiful boat! All white, ready for your colors.....
