Yeah, no matter how hard we tried, we just couldn't match the boat, driving, or navigating of that team!

[Captain Chaos]

Thats a lovely boat........excuse my igorance, but do i assume that would have been in the same class as the Phantom 28's etc?

As a point of interest, could that have been a trios boat?

[Jon Fuller]

Yes, it did run in 'T' class, against Roger Severy's 28 Phantom, us in the Extreme, other Revengers etc.
and yes, it was moulded by Trio's on the quiet, then Mike Slogit (revenger boats) found out, and Pete Berrow/Trios had to pay some royalties to him.

ps, don't know if I spelt Slogit's name right

[Captain Chaos]

What was the genereral consensus of opinion then Jon?

was one particular boat (either one model or even a specific boat) particularly better than the rest, or did it mostly depend on conditions/ whom was at the helm?? I.e each had thier day.

BTW who drove Tony's Extreme when you raced?? what i'm trying to ask is who was the foolish, overtrusting nobber that went along for the ride;p;

[Jon Fuller]

I can't answer the first question for fear of harping on about things and being (even more of) a bore. but if one of the other teams had put as much effort into improving the performance of their boat as we did, they would have been unbeatable in any conditions, where as, as it was, they were only unbeatable in the rough. (and I'm not talking about T22)

Tony and I drove together (oooh eerrrr) in that, I mean Tony steered and navigated (alegedly) and I throttled/trimmed (not as in the soft furnishings you understand)

[Captain Chaos]

...you got the responsible bit then?

I assume that you gave Tony "Barry Chiuckle" Davis one of those fake plastic steering wheel sets like Maggie has in the opening credits of the Simpsons then:drain:

I can well imagine that if you 2 had intercoms, its must have been hysterical @ times!

There was some interesting conversation (when he was concious, useless fecker)

As for being responsible, I don't think so, TD was the most responsible, as he paid for it all!

I thought that was what the forum is for...boatmad folk to speak about boaty things.

Do tell the stories.

[Jon Fuller]

No, i'd just get the piss taken out of me (even more)

[darexms]

I've only ever looked at one revenger 25 (mudeford vice) and was very impressed with it, he was running a pair of 225 mercs last time I saw him.

[Jon]

Those Revengers are very good boats and having passengered in T22 i can vouch for its performance.

No he's not, there are quite a few members of the racing community who regularly visit Boatmad, but for reasons of their own, choose not to register/contribute.

Don't think John's the PC type, Shelly looks, but probably wouldn't admit it (she'd have to join then)

But they all seem to know what's going on on BM!

[Jon Fuller]

Everyone has an equal opportunity to state their case, whatever that may be, all they have to do is register. :D
