Default What happened to the quad diesel OuterLimits?

Remember the big OL with diesels that started the around LI race and blew the gear boxes? It got repaired (maybe) and went to i think Europe and I thought it would have raced in the Venture Cup perhaps? Just wondering what became of it?

That's Dean Gibbs' boat. In the UK I believe.
He won the CTC race last year with his Fountain.
Mike Bontoft prepared it for the LI race.

The buisness end of that quad diesel boat is pretty intense looking. 4 surface drives is no joke
