Hi
I'm french and i'm new member on this forum, so i present me.
I love ski racing and i've been racing in 1999 to 2001 on a pyrhana with 115 and then a ring 18 with 2.4 bridgeport from nico(belgium) with a cleaver prop, a little bomb, but a little over powered.
There were a few ski races at this time in France, ring 21 bernico 21 and mostes were the most present baots on the championship, but now there are only 4 or 5 offshore races like ocr in your country.
So no more ski racing in France at this time.
So in 2007, i decided to make a pleasure boat, i bought a 1996 Bernico 19s hull in Belgium and then restore it, litlle work: paint job, and rigging,
I bought a 150 evinrude XL, transform it into 20 inch and put it on
I sold the boat in 2008, the new owner is very pleased with it
I had no time to go on water because of to much work...Not enaugh time...
Now i plan to have a boat to race in offshore racing in France, and peharps in ski racing if races come back...
Not sure to be ready for 2010, I must find an engine the hull will be easier to find.
Regards
