I liked the Vector but as a race boat it sure didnt look like it ran that well. One chine walkin SOB. Hope this one makes a few races here in the US, would love to see it run. That thing is bad azz!

THAT's why I saw Mike D'Annaballe in one of the shots. It sounds as if it has some sort of y-pipe or 180 degree exhaust system.
Yes - The bottom and foredeck definitely scream "Ocke". The transom is almost non-existent. That is one cut-down SOB. The Vector seemed to be too tall to compete with the low-profile raceboats.

SilverHook GP48 was built in Florida by John Cosker. The engines are Sterling Class 1 engines using SCS gears and BPM drives with a rudder.

The engines ran great and the boat is very fast.
SilverHook was flying beautifully in Malta but during Saturday's race a trim tab motor broke off and during Sunday's race the oil pressure sender came out of the gearbox (along with all of the oil).
The next race is Den Helder, Netherlands the weekend of August 5-7.
