That's the stuff - looks great!  I assume from the 'sliding turns' that you don't use a turn fin?  That's ok while the water is flat, but with a chop, your turns will be a bit unpredictble (not a good move to slide sideways into another boat)  ;D
Fast, flat, what more do you need?? ............................  more speed  ;D ;D    Get that engine screaming for mercy!!

Remember an engine is NOT for life, it's just to win the next race!   ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Hi Pete
Just looked back on the thread! If it's STILL sliding with those fins on - then the video isn't doing it justice!!  It must be REALLY moving.  I look forward to seeing the real thing at Windermere  :o :o :o :o O0

Um - Alan, I dont' know how to put this but -


if your boat turns 180 degrees -



won't it be facing the WRONG way?
