First race , first turn , first time in the boat together .
We tried to turn but the boat said no! I have the steering apart -
We may have the wrong helm in it as it takes a few turns of the wheel to turn .
Panther took the lead in the first lap but we stayed on him and tried to pass several times - He had some kick ass acceleration out of the turns .
No excuses ! Just getting the boat dialed in .
