Yesterday was a hectic day...
i would like to say Congratulation to paul for his 3rd place in EA mono
i had a crap day in the EB Rigger finishing 2nd in the first heat and then not finishing a race in the next 4 heats due to water coming into the boat and safety loops coming out.
But my brother with his EB Rigger took out 1st place
and my dad took out 3rd place with his EB rigger.

Thanks Chris. It was good that 1st 2nd & 3rd in the EA Mono all came from our club.
It was a shame you had such rotten luck with your rigger but congrats to Troy for his win.

D. Newland.
There were two of those twin nitro tunnels owned by two brothers, & they put on some hectic, paint swapping racing yesterday. No love lost between them out on the water.

Unfortunately I forgot the camera yesterday. But I can report that I managed to take out 1st place in the Restricted Mono. And Mark took out the EB Sports Hydro championship.
I'm not competing in any class today so I'll have plenty of time to take some pics.

I must clarify that the Restricted Mono was a demonstration class at these titles.
Cheers.
Paul.

A few pics from today & a couple of videos too. An EB Tunnel heat, & an EA Hydro heat. As you can hear in the EA Hydro , no one on the stand could see the dead boat in the glare of the sun. But Shane's yellow Rigger Took out the heat & the Championship.

Can you give me an idea what makes up the EB class? What's the typical hull size, motor and battery configuration?

Nice racing both videos.
