Starting to look like a pattern here Steve... You somehow always get creative with putting a boat out at the last minute and it wins the race!!! I was asked to come to Cobra to mold the canopies into those boats that were being shipped over there. I made the smart move of staying away. The quality was not up to par enough that I would want my name on it. I take it they didn't do very well over there??? Thanks for the comps on my site. It all started out by just trying to sell my boat molds and then it evolved from there. I got more into finding other people's sites and am trying to help out our other fellow boaters by setting up the LINKS.

Sharkey here is the #8 Boat It is a little more creative those are Cockpit adjustable Canards
This One was a Low Volume Build! Like when a truck speeds past you on a Highway the Air blast that rocks you is created mostly by the Volume of the Vehicle I was trying to make an advantage with that Also the speed shape and etc are a Component in this forgive the paint as I had to make a Race.

Ah yes...there is the old Cheetah looking good as ever. What was the length and weight of #8??? I don't think anyone in their right mind would want to be in front of that boat. Those sponsons couldn't be any sharper!!! STEVE , Hopefully you have know plans on May 18th & 19th . SKATERFEST Will be held at Doug's place in Brick, NJ. They are looking for a few expert boat builders to come and give some input. Doug I'm sure would be glad to see ya! Think you could make it???

Man that sounds like a deal Thanks for the Invite Sharkey!!8 weighed @ 1250 Kilograms complete with some Fuel, I added 300 or so Down low and Outboard as much as possible to make the UIM Weight break and put the CG down By the Chine .Just starting to really dial it in, When A Friend was killed right in front of me at a Race while driving a POS Buzzi RIB Man! Took it all out of me . Shipped 8 back home! I threw a cover over it and left it in a shed in the Desert for 3 years. Now the Patrol boat Line gets started and another story.

Sorry to hear of your loss STEVE I'm sure your friend would want you to continue with what you do best. That is improve the safety of hi-performance powerboats just simply by building a better boat as an option for the racer. You build, they will come... Hope you can make the event...
