Its not uncommon to add 12 to 14 ounces to the left front. I agree with the left turn. If your running a hook turn fin that's kind of the price you pay for being faster in the corners. If its a blade more tuck or different fin. Greg
I agree with mike my Wiesfields is a Valasco hull. The molds now owned by Brian Buass. It has no air trap behind the sponsons. This allows air to spill out and makes the boat handle well in rough water. The real thing tends to run there strut angle at 7 to 10 degrees where we run our boats with...
It is one of my (throne readings) I like being able able to look at some of the articles more than once. Let alone sitting on the (J) with a laptop between my legs. greg
Hey Mike I'm not holding the camera Brian Buass is. I couldn't make it down there. The boat looks great! It needs more prop and it will be a team effort its nice when you have a nationls winning boat and a couple others to compare it to. Greg
Mark I agree he was running a x440 and i was running a cupped X442. He definetly turning more rpm than me. I think we need something in between. Unfortunatly I sold my boat but another is in the works. Greg
Jeff broke my record! Can't think of a nicer young man to do it! He really put it together for a couple laps and that boat was singing! Boat and motor were the same as mine just a different prop. Congrats. Greg
I've been running there 60% fuel for 3 years now with no problems at all. Most of the district 8 people run this fuel and have been very happy with it. UNW bought it for there fuel buy this year I ordered 54 cases, It works and the price is right! Greg
Ive got to get in here, The first boat was a dumas thriftway 049 on tether then a Skadadal with a veco 19 single channel world engines radio. My father and I then joined the Seattle model yacht club and we met a man named Ed Fisher. The fun began.

At the 2 lap record trials a couple of weeks ago I was fortunate enough to set a new record of 28.69 seconds shaving a little more than 2 seconds off the old record. The boat was a Russ Nachtwieh hull with a 9 port Nova/rossi and a pitched up X442. Mike Also set his thunderboat record with one...
