Fellas,

I can tell you this is one of “The Best 45-Hydros“ out there.
I have one and it is amazing with a CMB RS-45-Goldhead
in it. Sometimes it doesn’t look real fast in the straightaway,
but when you see your lap times on the stopwatch it seems
to make you a better boater. Mike and Rob have dominated
for quite awhile here in District #2 racing their own designed
21 and 45 hydros.

Thanks For Reading,

That hull is the same generation boat Rob Betke and Sam Bowden have won many big races with. Nitro Nats, Masters, Nitro Winter Champs, Evansville, Etc.

Joe didn't have a lot of time on it, so it is in really good shape. The wood pieces are the starter templates that I use to make sponsons with. If you are not going to make your own set of sponsons, have Joe give them back to me and I'll use them to make a set of sponsons up some day.

Let me know if you have any questions on the set up.

I remember the first time I saw Mike's boats run at the Burton Hydro Fest... they seemed to have this ethereal quality to their performance - like they were just floating and riding on a cushion of air... a deceptive speed as they were going around other boats.

IMO, they run at least as good, probably better, than any other hydro out there today.

That's a great boat at a great price!

 

[Ronnie King]

Thanks guys, looking forward to getting her rolling soon!

What damaged the rear radio box bulkhead like that ???

Impact damage or pipe bracket ripped out possibly??

 

[Ronnie King]

Pipe mount would be my guess.

Either way I have a piece of carbon fiber plate & some West Systems waiting !

Have a great day everyone !!

Looks like it got tagged with a right sponson from the right and behind. Ripping pipe mount off and then turn fin chunking the right rear sponson and top deck. Probably lost pipe on that deal.

Yup, I've had riggers busted up WAY worse than that before, and still managed to keep them going for a few more years...
It's in good hands now and I'm betting that once Ronnie works his magic on it, you won't even be able to tell it was ever damaged...
