Anyone have a 22' BatBoat they want to trade for my 22' Velocity ? ? Sounds unbeatable.

Bilge,
I was thinking the same thing-I guess this guy could race in class 3 or 2 and kick everyone's azz?? LOL Class 7 is deep V's only, no cats or air-entrapment hulls. |

A 22 foot Bat Boat or Backdraft with a Stock 90 Merc runs about 72MPH in the ocean. No other 22 footer will see it in the rough with anything less than a 2.5 . My 23 Bat Boat ran 103 with a 2.5 260 offshore propped for flat conditions. Set up for the ocean it ran 97MPH. On any typical offshore race day with a 6 mile course I was lapping my class by the third lap while texting from the drivers seat. My class was comprised of Progressions, Activators, Phantoms (British version), Superboats, Velocity. The closest was the Phantom.

I sent Ryan some info on a batboat. Hopefully he will post it here. I can't post attachments. My original post was intended to be a heads up before someone, like I would, if entering class 7 brings a gun to a knife fight like what happened in SVL. Randy, I sent you a pm.

You're still bracketed at 60...
|
The class 7 is for older type boats. A batboat would never be allowed in....
|
I don't know Ryan, if its an outboard and the right length. Know one that I know has wanted to register one yet. And like Johnny said they are racketed to 60 and there are some real fast teams and they are not just old boats. Whens your little guy getting in a boat? lol

Connor is doing well, he's been out in the boats since he was 8 weeks old. He has been in my 24' Skater several times and ran in a 36' Skater for the New Years Day Fun Run. The Bat Boats would destroy the class in any condition. It is not a Vee hull, it is a air entrapment hull, that is what the wings do.
