SVL exploding!!!!!
 

After the 3rd race of the year for OSS this class is kicking ass!!! 3 races and 3 different winners. With the addition of High Noon in the line up the competition is great. I am so happy for Eric and Bruce in WHM on there 2nd place finish and George and Matt in Imco on there 3rd place finish. Wild Ride was no surprise to me on there first place finish. 7 boats and climbing up in SVL. So you want to be an offshore racer against this group? I DARE YOU!!!!!!

What happened to Kiss of Fire?

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

How easy is it to put a canopy on a non-canopy boat? Can it be fabricated?

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!

that was cold mark typhoon was running hard and spun one must run on the edge if you want to finish high in this class. and oui canopies can be added ( it has been done ) sonny hawkins did it to a criss cat years ago if in doubt call george linder for guidelines I used to have the book on it don't know what I did with it I am sure that Tony P from bad boy powerboats could do it for you randy or willy can give you his number if you are interested

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

You guys are relentless... :rolleyes:

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Randy and Glenn,
You guys put on a good race, and continue to push yourselves and the boat past the limit, although the smallest class in OSS, you guys RACE!
It was awesome seeing a seven boat field in OSS SVL, with a few surprises, ( the yellow boat)! And the points could not be any closer!!!

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Every teams needs someone like Bertal! He is the best. No questions asked except are you OK. The the next words are lets get er done boys and don't worry what it cost thats racing and keep pushing it. I like that in a partner.

M&M hows your boat coming along? Thanks for always thinking of me. :rolleyes:

Didn't you mean to say :

With all the money he throws...........

You need a spelling lesson. :D

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

5.7 miles per lap. I don't know the planned number of total laps.

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

10 laps

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

kiss of fire has arrived

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Pete thanks for the kind words, to give you a little insight on what happened to us after the green flag dropped we were running flat out one quarter mile outside of turn one the boat did a 180 we straightened out the boat and preceded to race; three and a half laps later the drive let loose. Big gouge out of the skeg my guess is we hit something rather large!

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Interesting - 4 laps X 5.7 miles = 22.8 miles. If you had been running a 22 mile race, you and Randy would have finished second instead of 5th.

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

You guys could depress someone who won the lottery. :( Do you have anything just anything good to say?
MD

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Simple math shouldn't depress anyone-

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Wow, these threads sure do go south given time, it's no wonder a lot of teams don't sponsors, unless they don't welcome them>>>>>>>>

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Let me guess.........you had your checkbook out ready to write a $1,000,000 check for sponsorship, and now you've changed your mind.

If you think this thread has "gone south", then you need to spend more time here or just develop thicker skin. It's all in fun-

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Ok it's all in fun, just appears that many have bones to pick when a thread starts out on one subject then turns south/negative and changes to another....well you never know when potential sponsor is lookin' :eek:

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

actually phantom we had just started the 6th lap when they went full corse yellow race control backed scoreing up to 4 laps as the yellows started flying on turn boats during the 5th
Larry wild ride #5

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Thanks Larry. I was just using Hollywood's post above to calculate. Spin at 1/2 lap and break 3 1/2 laps later. That is how I came up with 4.

Congrats on the win-

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

We ended up sucking up a plastic bag, and the engine went into limp mode because the engine wasn't getting enough water, and we lost 1/2 the engine, or so I was told. But hey what do I know, I just drive the thing.

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

klaatu I was just messing with MM

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

actually I was referring to the practice of cutting the throat and pulling the tongue out thus forming the necktie I think this was used for informants

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

"Kiss of Fire " arrived the other day, not sure when de-rigging will start, so this will not be done soon. :(

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Pete B,

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

not sure if they will keep the name, once de-rigging starts, i will try and do a complete photo essay of the entire process.

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Here is one from the Trinidad site.

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Was that the first speedster ever built?

Wil

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Mr Beckley says yes!! bronx something??? forget the name

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

The first was the Bronx Phantom, which was an all red hull. I know that it ended up being sold to someone out of the country, but I think it was to a guy in Puerto Rico.

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

Bronx Phantom??? If so it was the Phantom 30' rigged at Kurt's Marine in Bricktown, NJ originally.

Re: SVL exploding!!!!!
 

thats supposedly it, if you know the numbers on it i will verify
