Todd Werner
 

I just heard that Todd is done racing,is there any truth to this,I hope not,he is good for the sport and good for the future of the sport.He started in the lower classes and worked his way up,I hope that he continues to run,I heard that Roger Bourget bougt his boat and that he was done.Does anyone know if this is true.

Re: Todd Werner
 

I was told Todd was going back to his roots and getting a SS boat. As of Thursday Bourget WAS NOT buying Todds MTI.

Re: Todd Werner
 

Thanks for the info Ryan

Re: Todd Werner
 

Todd probably won't sell the boat, he'll just add it to his collection of three race boats and 50 hot rods.

Re: Todd Werner
 

He also gave up racing once before. :(

Re: Todd Werner
 

Todd is a good guy. He was the original owner of the 3 seater 30' Phantom, and certainly worked his way up through the classes. He will be successful at whatever he does.

Re: Todd Werner
 

He also had (perhaps still has) the 29 open cockpit twin outboard Phantom with ballast tanks, just prior to the Speedster you are referring to.

Re: Todd Werner
 

He does have a VERY impressive collection !!! I would never go home.....all he needs is a bar in the show room. Dave

Re: Todd Werner
 

Is that the old Team Chicago boat? I thought Mel owned that one and it was to be raced as the Gambler. I think Ken Doyle owned it before that.

Re: Todd Werner
 

Todds 29' Phantom was called Phantaseas it was a twin outboard boat. It's been cut up into a center console. He currently has 28' Skater, 29' Phantom, 37' Talon, 36' Spectre or two, 2 40' Skaters, 39' MTI, and a 50+ Searay.

Re: Todd Werner
 

Holy CRAP!!! Now that is a boat stable... Party at Todd's place... Everybody gets a boat... :evilb:

Re: Todd Werner
 

No, Todd did not own that one. I had always wanted to buy the Team Chicago boat and even made a deal in KW last year to buy it. Ken accepted my offer over the phone, so instead rushing the cash to him I didn't think there was any big hurry, so a couple of weeks later, Will calls me and tells me that Ken sold the boat (for $5K more than I had offered)! I really was disappointed, but I can't blame him for taking more money for it.

Re: Todd Werner
 

I guess the question would be, What is Todd racing next year??????????????

Re: Todd Werner
 

Todd is a fun guy and a wealth of information when it comes to racing boats. he spent my first day of Cat ownership teaching me the basics. I do believe I scared him a little that day....no worries he has returned the favor on several occasions. he's got ten years racing under his belt..its in his blood ..he'll be back. Probably just want to take a year off to gather his thoughts and plan a new attack!!
