Default Velocity Raceboat

Just posting a question to everybody out there that may know the answer. I am tired of watching offshore racing and constantly seeing, whether it be winning or the whole fleet being Fountains. I am a Velocity fanatic, that unfortunately does not have the means to race Super V lite or Super V. Why doesn't anyone want to race a Velocity out there, at least in the bigger classes, is Steve working on any kind of canopied boat to compete in these classes? I know Scott reads this and I would very much like to hear your imput on this. If I come into some money, I know you would be the first to call to start putting something together. Anyone else out there that feels this way?

Good luck on the rest of the season in F1!!!

Hey I agree with you I watch for the velocities all the time once in awile you will catch one. I have asked before about why dont they show up on tv but only in win column. Kind of policitcal I think plus those other boats have alot of advertising behind them which I am sure is why they get more coverage.

..a true Super "V" !!!

I'd think a canopy could be done on a 39 or 41??

Someone told me he's working on a new 35..??

I believe he used to build a 35 under the Thoroughbred name, we need to get a real canopied Super V out there to show Mr Fountain that he isn't the only one that builds a fast V hull.

How is the 32 coming? Are you gonna be in the water in the spring? I just got my one motor back together and just in time to winterize it for the winter, it really sucks living up here!

It may have been the boat but it was not me. I just bought it in June. I was told this one of two still left with this power. The other guy lives about an hour from me in PA and 400+hp Evolution motors. My boat is all white with dark blue and aqua stripes and Blue Evinrude Limited editions. If this is the boat you saw I would like to know what you know about it. I can email pics if you want to see!

Thanks, TOny!
