        Here's a vid of the boat racing last week in our 4 cell sports hydro class. ( i modified the front wings for it to be legal :) )
        I nailed the start and held 1st place for 3 laps with a Whiplash 20 on my tail the hole time. Coming around the top turn to start lap 4 i lost my line and came across to wide allowing the whip to take me on the inside. I tried chasing him down but the lobster didn't like his wake and i eventually flipped at the end of the back straight.
        Very happy with the way it performs, just need to keep the lead lol

          That thing is quick Heath.
          On calmer days you will be hard to catch. You had a couple of good races with Trev & that old whip.

              I remember this boat coming up for sale on eBay a couple of years ago. I guess Heath has sold it. Looked to be a nice boat.
