    Skater - Peter Hledln

    Yes I got it back but the bastards chainsawed it so badly it couldn't be repaired. I'm looking to put my 2006 Dodge dually to work hauling stuff and putting out flyers for a liquidation co. so I can make some money to buy another boat.

    Skater - Peter Hledln

    Very interesting article and tremendous insight into how Hledin builds boats as light as he does. I would have never thought of making the fuel tank an integral part of the hull. Couple of things; The sidebar says the 399 V bottom is a Super V Light. Wrong...it's too big for that class...

    5 people die in Texoma poker run

    Thank you BluFin that was the link I did not put in my post above. As you can see from those pics, there were some changes made to the drive system and the tie bar. The failure could have been caused by the tie bar. If its mounting brackets failed, the drives could have freewheeled against...

    Marc and Scotty pulled a serious holeshot on the field off the start. Those turbines make tremendous torque.

    Platinum Princess Video

    I get chill bumps every time I watch this video. Great music too!! I understand that AMF is building a new 50' Mystic cat(Callan) with 1800hp turbines. With at least a 46' running surface, that boat should span the waves better than the 40' Platinum. I am so excited about being in AMF's...

    5 people die in Texoma poker run

    Here is a link to the Eliminator 36Daytona of Flash Gordon. Look carefully at the last two pics of the transom rigging. Many of us believe that a catastrophic mechanical failure in this area was the cause of this terrible accident. I went to Gordon and Ann's funeral as they lived only 50 miles...

    Happy Birthday,Jon Fuller

    Good as ever Garf. Just had a barfday meself on the 7th. Trouble with American Offshore racing is we have too many WCs; one in Key West and one in Destin Florida. Too bad we don't have just one racing organization such as UIM.

    Send him some. I'm sure you guys know that Mr. Warby is now with AMF? He was photographed last year I believe, talking with Prince Philip about resurrecting Bluebird and other matters such as his run at his own Water Speed Record. I will also be in the AMF pits at the OSS World Championships...

    New Merc 700SCi and New Merc Drive

    Mercury is proud of their products, just look at the prices! The 850/6 combo is right at $100,000US if I remember correctly. That would put the new 700/Ace drive right around $85,000. I can get a 705ci/1000hp motor for $35,000(www.marineassault.net) and a bulletproof ASD8 surface drive for...

    BIG powerboat comming to the UK

    Yes that's the consensus of opinion on OSO too about the CG. Yes the Dallas police found the boat. I have it now at my bro in law's house. It will cost at least $20,000US to repair. The running surface is good but the bastards cut all three fuel tanks out and stole the engine hatch, so we might...

    If it aint a Cat!.......

    My 24' Carlson raceboat has a hull very similar to the Bladerunner's; www.icemarine.com I'm testing it now at over 95mph. No V bottom with similar size, weight and power can come anywhere near those speeds. The only V bottom that can stay with me is the 24' Batboat. A friend of mine in...
