I'm not even gonna try it!
I think Mr Fin is right though, because I first became aware of chaudron (years ago) via googling (mebbe yahoo or webcrawler back then) for phantom.

Also, if your fake Tag has 'heur' written on it, I suggest you take it back to the market you bought it from and ask them to sell you another ' e '

Cos its not the real deal,its a fake, some people still reckon they are better than the genuine article though.
I don't give a shit how you spell it, I would never buy one anyway, complete waste of money.

definitely all the ones that broke, it looked fairly rough to me.
however the 21 phantom seemed to handle it with ease. Its driven by an bloke called "beardy" I'm told, now he either has his brain removed whilst getting into the boat, or (in my opinion) is the best Phantom/ ring single engine pilot I have ever seen.

Ian 'Old Beardy' Stirling certainly drives his P21 with comitment & skill, which seems, far to regularly on this site, to get confused with just having big balls!...If only it were that simple!!
I think it's fair to say, there's a good few OCR, and ex OCR drivers that could get out there in 3C and cause a stink in a wee Phantom.
Be good to see Nick Barsch make an appearence out'a retirement to run in an offshore event or two.

Would be great but imagine the length of stick on nose he would need to achieve minimum length
Met up with nick yesterday, he's busy at the moment looking after various OCR boats and some honda's keep him busy one has rolled over twice. but you can never say never now can you

I suppose that all depends which model you start with.

Not familiar with UK offshore racing! I did not mention anyones balls by the way! my opinion seems to be in line with yours. What is 3c? Years ago I remember seeing lots of 21 phantoms & rings racing with XR2 &/or 200's. What happened, it seems a real good format for cheap, fast racing, offshore? 1st time at Littlehampton seeing Batboat racing, again (in my opinion). they look great on the straights but don't seem to corner very well. Whats the top speed for them (outboard & inboard)?

No, sorry, the comment wasn't aimed at you.
B23 runs about 80 with XR2
Phantom 21 runs about 68 wuth same motor (but no lifter)
Not sure how quick the B23 would be if set up without lifter for all-round racing.
