Ray
Your ML Boatworks P Sport Hydro looks good;
Your two lap time was 29 sec. = 87 sec. for 6 lap
What motor and prop were you running??

Larry,

1527/1D turning a m445. It is an amp hog though. I have some new cells on order. Lots of tweaks to do yet as well.

First lap was our new mill lap.. yellow pulsing, spinning out boat was a driver learning the ropes with a boat with a lot of power and not a lot of experience.

What Scott said. Although I think he was having an issue with his ESC too.

6/14/15 Lake christening at Tom Bennett Park

I shot a few photos and vids today. 1st photo is the park entrance followed by a couple of shots across the lake from the little dock that we can use for a drivers stand.
And here's the days 1st video.
Christening day run at the club's new lake in Tom Bennett Park. Rich was in such a hurry to be the 1st one in the water that he forgot to steer going out of the launching area

A word of warning. Don't let the gator take any of your body parts. There's a stiff fine for feeding them.

Next up A short run for Dave's SAW rigger since a cooling line came off.

Last couple of photos are of Brian's LSH boat. I'll mention that right after it's "leap of faith" it wound up upside down.

This video started off as some solo footage of Ray's new P boat then Brian & Richard joined in.
I don't know if it's just an optical illusion or if the cars on the interstate were just running slow. I find a 70 mph P mono a little hard to believe. Especially running reduced throttle on the back straight due to the chop and headwind.

A little longer run on Dave's rigger. Moving pretty good for half throttle.

Finishing out the day Brian's new LSO boat to be. An Aeromarine Sprintcat 29. I think we all agreed it needs the CG shifted forward a bit.
