First let me say what an honor it was for me to be selected by Jeff Michaud, owner of Insane Boats to be the rigger/tester/owner of the first P-Spec rigged boat. And man, it's beautifull - absolutely the finest piece of craftmanship I've ever seen in a FE boat - both the hull and hardware. Out on the course she just ripped, and I backed off in the turns, as was my habit with other boats. Jeff said :
" Just hold her wide open" and I did just that and she took the turns WFO like she was on rails. [I'd forgotten that when I run with Jeff's gassers they just rip up the turns wide open, and this boat was designed by Jeff to do just that !}
Setup : Ul-1 motor [ a workhorse I made from 2 kaboshed UL-1 motors]
( a fresh one should add more mph I suspect )
UL-1 speed control, servo, and Tx/Rx
.150 flex
Hyperion 2S 5000's in series[ Loaned by UBHauled-thanks Bro] (incorrectly identified in the vid as 2S2P
ABC H-5 trimmed to 44.79 mm plus some Sholund magic
GPS : 53.6 MPH

Jeff's got to crunch some numbers and then the pricing will be released. Start parting out your UL-1's now !! Or get your big motor/SC ready, either way. And do visit the Insane Boat website to see where the inspiration for this boat came from
