I know the boat rolled at least once at the Worlds in Destin Florida....I don't think it hurt it too bad as they raced it the next day

I remember this event,,,,,,, If you reflect on the past couple of years, there has been a substantial number of these SV/SVL boats rolled and/or upside down.

How about any weight gain and what is the chance of any form of delamination taking place done the road. Was it disclosed that the boat was a bobber before you bought it, just asking. I am not saying this as a dog but just asking ?

I had heard at one point the guys were testing NXT's and the original keg design made the boat prone to slide out, but this might not be that boat.

As has been stated -most SVL's have rolled over at some point as you are - pushing and pushing and pushing.
