Scott,
I just spoke with Jack at Hydra. He doesn't have anything for a Kilo Run.
He said if they had a class for the "Most Fuel Effecient" hull he could probably win that.
Most of his customers wanted superb cruising distances and the boats were built for that.
Extremely light weight, vacuum bagged epoxy/vinyl-ester built boats.
He has had several right ups on his boats I believe in Yachting and one other mag for the performance. They all have great reviews and test results for their effeciency.
Lately he has been doing some interesting things with the large Vee Hulls. There's one being rigged right now with Mercury's latest digital technology controls.
Another 43 is in the works, but it is confidential. Customer wants no word of it getting out...
So it looks like we should all be in for a surprise when that one's done!
I wonder who this customer is???

Re: Kilo run dates are set
I wonder if we could possibly get the owner of the 32 Hydra to go down from Jersey for this???
Here is a link for pics of the boat: 32 ft long 7 ft wide 2500#s Custom Hydra Pics
