I know this is very off topic, but I was wondering if any of you guys ran the rear race cowl/cover on your y2k's in a back to back test? If so, how much of a benefit did you see? Gary, I'm not a superboat owner, but I read this entire thread from the start! Been very informative and interesting. I can honestly say that there is probably not a single other manufacturer around that would give you the kind of customer service experience you had during the build of your boat!
effort put into the build, it was a once in a lifetime event. Rick made
everything come together just perfect. I often wonder if JC knowes how lucky he is to have Rick building the Superboat Brand Boats
Thanks
Gary

I just call it as I see it... I am still curious if anyone has run the rear fairing though. Reason I ask, is I'd kinda like to try one on my boat. While I don't have a superboat, I do have a narrow beam single engine v hull, and I'm getting ready to run a shootout in Havasu next month... Every little bit helps!
Thanks guys!
Thanks guys!

As much as I would love to buy a new boat right now, there's no way I could justify giving up on the amount of time and money I've invested in my scarab. I'm planning on putting a pretty solid number down at the shootout next month, and it would take me a very long time to get a new boat dialed in well to make that attempt...

As for speed I think the only way it would make a difference is if you have a lot of wind drag on your back seat . They look supper cool but the added weight would outweigh the areodynamics . If you have an upholstery guy that could make you a canvas tonneau cover it would probably be your best chance for making speed due to no added weight ..Or you could run with a full cockpit cover on and have a guy on the shore with a two way radio directing you which way to go ..lol !
