I thought for sure the old boat I passed along to someone else was part of that first race also-

Maybe Mark will chime in - a clasic H&B paintjob .

Those 5 boats listed in the 1st pic are indeed the exact ones used in the first MOD-VP race. The H/B paint job was on a newer boat built after these 5 were running in the new series.

Happy trails John! Thanks so much for helping me make the transition from the Alaska Boat club to Charleston Model Boaters.

That was a fun but wildly hectic weekend for me. Keeping five K&B's tuned and I was also racing Mark Hoppers 360 that he sent me cause he could not be there.

Andy, the boat that you had belonged to Derryl. When it was new the paint job was really sharp. Biggest lesson here was how much difference there was between five identical engines. Blue and yellow boat was slow until I changed the powerhead. Pink boat was always fast.

The latest hull handles much better than those did. Would be fun to do another challenge series again with identical outboard monos! Lol.
