Went out on this Formula with Bob Zubick from Chicago who was taking a test drive - we were out for over an hour in 4 -6' waves running mid 70's - Twin supercharged 575 power - 4 blade herrings gave it amazing acceleration!

Gary Spray - after a night out with Steve Curtis - inside on of the other MTI's he had rigged. Behind him are twin LCD screens for the built in DVD player in the side cabin leading forward to one of the biggest beds I'd seen in a boat - complete with silk sheets!
