Thumbs up

Likely entrants:
1) 22 Apache, Toasty
2) 22 Velocity, Waterboy/Fast Shafts
3) 22 Apache, Gregg A.
4) 21 Checkmate, Lake Hopatcong
5) 21 Superboat, Vnemous

Possible Entrants:
6) 21 Superboat, JD-Special Edition??
7) 21 Challenger, Fuller Marine??
8) 21 Superboat, Coen Jr.??
9) 22 Avanti, Phragle-end of season????

I think if we get 3-4 boats for the first race it will be a good start. Class 6 started off with 2-3 and quickly grew.

On the Scream and Fly website, a new member, "JD Merc", said he may have to "dust off his old lifeline". JD raced in this class 20 years ago. I think this is the JD who eventually raced with his father in the Open class boat "Special Edition"!! JD would certainly bring some credibility to this class. Hope he races!!
Anyone else??

dont think there is anything officially posted yet..

as I understand it:

1) 21-23'

2) must be 2 people in boat

3) single outboard

4) I have heard either 250 or 300 hp max.........???

5) 60 mph max speed using OPA GPS unit.

Think that about covers it.

Would an old 20' Sutphen Super Pacer qualify? I think they are actually a bit smaller than 20', but they are a competitor to the Challenger/SB/Apache 21/22. I would love to get in on this, though probably not this season. I hope it works out!
