Insane Boats P-Spec Sport Hydro 1st run with Vid !!!

LMAO! I'm sure I will. Jeff's willingness to add some custom work to the boat per my request is what got me on board. Gotta love when someone will cater to your goals!

What are you having done?

[johnf]

Haha, nothing wild. Jeff is adding a layer of carbon fiber to the entire bottom of the hull and sponsons before the top and bottom of the hull are joined. I'd much rather the master handle it than me mess it up! Lol

Great idea man!
how much more does that add to the cost?

[johnf]

I'm really not sure if it's a service he normally offers, I just requested it. I'd have to say email him for costs. It will vary depending on how you want it done. I wanted mine glossy (bling!), so that added a couple bucks. I will say this, calculate the cost of materials, and then buy Jeff a beer for the efforts. Would come out about the Same as what he is charging me.

I have a request for you guys, I would like to see how this boat hangs on the pins do you guys think you can get a video of that?

I have seen several of his gas hydros run in person and they are impressive so hope fully this is to!

There should be a vid up shortly of Mark's boat with a 1527 1D racing today in the D19 points race in OPEN [!] class with Tyler (RaceMechanix) driving. Had to take lane 6 to stay clear of the gasser racewater but was running second when the LVC kicked in. Impressive !!

[Brushless55]

Sweet!

[MarkF]

Here you go. Tyler was running the boat in lane 20 just to stay out of the way of the gas boats. The boat can hang in lane 1 no problem.

I just gave Jeff the draft of these detailed installation instructions yesterday ; should be in each boat shipment. [Private instruction available on request ]

[johnf]

Mark F, I'm really curious about your motor setup. Particularly, the location, and clearance around it. Is there anyway you could get more pics of the motor and motor mount? I'm trying to get an idea of the angle it is at, and distance of mount from transom. Also, about how much clearance does it have around the hatch? I know my 1521 is a slight bit shorter, so hopefully that will help with the motor mount I wanna run.

[RaceMechaniX]

That was a blast guys!

Mark, Thanks for letting me take the wheel. Considering the chop and conditions the new hull ran exetremely well. Very easy to turn and consistent every lap.
