I recall them talking about using the Mercury 2.5/200XS ROS, Guess the boats had a difficult time running the speeds people wanted.. should not be a problem with 400hp per side now.

Steve, Glad you guys were alright after the crash. I was really looking forward to the redesigned Cat. The cockpit and bulkheads did their job thank goodness. Jolley

The new boat is a monster. Lee hit the nail on the head. If you look at the start of the 1st race we definitely accelerated ahead of the pack. We got stuck at the Wall and slowed a bit, but were gaining when we stuffed. Just one of those things. Nothing felt odd before it happened. Nothing dramatic just a rouge wave and under we went.
Motors are at Diamond and the boat is beginning rehab. Lee and I should go to regab with it, but little chance of that.
