Greetings from Sweden, BAT23

[BAT23]

Father and son, pretty happy after arriving first at the last stop. Even
though we where so wet, the boat was damaged, my ass was damaged




This is from a video taped by some one in the Cigarette 38:

I was taking it really slow, since it was the first time i meet any kind of sea since last fall. And then that big wave came arround

I do need to repair the right wing, since its busted. If you grab it and lift some the crack from thell opens in the rear.. Shit happens :S

Thats all for now. I hope to be running soon again since i need more time behind the wheel.

Btw, anyone know where i can find a V-24? I want to get the big sister with cockpit, would feel alot safer i guess.

Cya.

There where no pictures taken at the roughest part, impossible to get any footage. The Scarab 400 flew like mad, and so did the Cigarette 38.

This is one of the calmer water we sa this Saturday:

My first race since the accident and the build up on the West coast went fine.

Ended up with two Gold medals, pretty nice, i think im starting to get back on the right track.

Latley i've been running her to fcking heavy in the front, just because i've been scared or causios? (spelling?), i did that in the Smögen race aswell, but i think we had a nice ride on Friday, Saturday was ok but not as good.

Today me and my bro took her for a spin, had some old sea and i had good speed, nice balance and not much water in the ballast tank at all, so i think im doing pretty decent.

Pictures from Smögen, i dont know havent found any ill post as soon as i find some.

From today, Micke gives tumbs up



This was the first test with the 4-blade ballistic, got minus slip with that. Not that much speed, need my new engine nooow

Well, i keep posting here if you like me to.

Just write a line or two.

This is from our 2 day race in Smögen.

[BAT23]

Well, after last race in Uppsala it was cleare, National Champions in 2000cc inboard.

Uppsala was really flat, but still a fun race, we did 76mph in average and im pretty saticfied with that, we keept the cats behind and also the rest of the monohulls.

A few pics from Uppsala:







My vision this winter was to fit a Hydrocat canopy on my bat, but since im kinda slow and the season took mostly of my money i have to wait, cause i dont want to start anything that cant be finnished in time, i need to defend my title next summer

Either, this one with canopy, or a V-24... V-24 would rock, i just love them.

Finaly got me a v24, so this baby is for sale. Note that engine compartment is big enough for a V8 if anybody wants to do 100+mph

[driver510]

Is that v69 seahorse racing

[BAT23]

Yes i went to se Marc, Ana and the boat 2 weeks ago.

Its alredy home in Sweden, but i havent seen it het since im on vaccation in ft lauderdale.

Its a Good boat right?

[BAT23]

Our vaccation here in fort lauderdale is great!

Mest up with Robert, owner and builder from Corsa powerboats. This is the man that beat reaggie in rafflet class so many Times so he quit.

Alot of lovley storries i storries i tell you. He also took us to cheif engines and cobra engines, really cool shops.

We also ran in to Fritz and his 46 foot skater, ex bacardi silvret so we got an Quick tour of his boat.

And last, Scott at AMF offshore (miss geico) unlimited cat let us comecand visit their shop and look at all the boats and stuff. À really nice guy who spent arround 2 hrs with uss before we vegan our drive back home to lauderdale.

I have alot of Åhléns
