My 46 weighs LESS than my 40.
Thats true! Purpose built machines!

Maybe too lite!! but was a world offshore and national champ many times.If it wasn't for the inland racing that goes on now this hull would still be taking checkerd flags!! 4,160 lb out the mold!!
Now that was Offshore Racing!!!

That's more like it! Love the rough stuff!!! Got the 46 to 150 mph today!!! That's it, back to loading up 3000 more pounds of fuel and people and going on poker runs.
