With a very few and low cost (relatively) modifications you can make the 1075's create more power than the 1100s or the 1350s. AND lots of people can work on them, which is a plus for a lot of Owners.
The QVC4 program has become remarkably restrictive in terms of what Mercury Racing will allow...
The intoxication of almost unlimited capital to build out a lifelong dream appears to have caused him to overlook glaring risks associated with it - you roll the dice on your entire existence being anchored in a country where the only "rights" you have are the ones they "allow you to have" day...
I think what you will see is a very significant number of boats show up anyway and it will likely be a great weekend without the formality associated with an organized event. I personally know of at least 20 "top tier" boats that are not Havasu based that will be here anyway.
I think you are taking it out of context. The point of my post is I don't think you can "throw a blanket" over all people that are "Mormon" they simply do not all behave the same... so to say - "they don't do this, they don't do that".... its like saying "well he was Irish, so he probably was...

The preferred entryway to the river (headed north from the lake into the river) used to be the "zig-zag" route traveling from east to west and then headed in hugging the reed island but then it seems to have changed over the last year or so and now almost everyone seems to approach it from the...
That is a very common issue with the 400's, and the 450's on outboard catamarans - everyone talks about "zero maintenance" with those boats, and reality is there are a PILE of broken lowers from Havasu to Sarasota - while under Warranty no one cares as much (except the ruined weekends and the...
Peter has never made any effort to build a winning FULL Canopied OB boat for the class - he dosent care (no money in building race boats) . Ryan Beckley is the only person who has campaigned a Skater for any period of time in the OB class and he has never been competative with the Doug Wrights...
Dave:
You make the re-occuring mistake of thinking that just because you are not smart enough, or experienced enough to understand what someone else is saying it is automatically WRONG - and you do it with a lot of people, not just me. That's why you have NEVER had any credibility, and never...
Hey Dave.... since you always have "all the inside knowledge" about everything why don't you let your fellow Bloggers know that is going on with this boat?. You know, the boat you said would be so awesome in your "setup expert" opinion.
How is the ride?, the performance?..... any hop issues...
Dave... its replies like this from you that year after year reinforce why this Blog has ZERO credibility...... it's because of YOU and your lack of ability to keep your yap shut...... and everybody knows it... including you.
My post is 100% accurate..... you are simply not realistic or smart...
If you have 30% slip and you can smoke by your Buddy's boat that has 0% slip so badly you blow the paint off his boat you have the "perfect slip".
Focusing on Slip is like focusing on how "bad ass your boat looks on the trailer".... the only thing anyone cares about is how fast it goes. It...
We have several friends that work in ICU sections of 3 different hospitals in the Phoenix Area and one who works at County. We speak wtih them every couple of days. From the very beginning (a month ago lets call it) they have NEVER seen the "rush of patients and body count" that we all would...
These platforms were largely unsuccessful. On a trade by trade basis (which we track) they broke even or lost money on the majority of their trades and when cost of funds is factored in the institutional money that was behind them had a terrible return - those funds have now transitioned into...
I stand corrected... did not know this, but I suspect that Mike was paying for it all, he was racing long before this in Supercat with Greg Harris (and very competative), I can't imagine Tim every moving the needle (money wise) on Mike being able to race, or not. We pitted next to him in Key...
I do not believe he ever went "supercat racing". Not defending the Guy, my dealings with him were fortunately limited. For all of you that were Dooped I hope he gets what he deserves.
There are a very, very few AUTHENTIC people regularly hanging around Havasu that ever went Supercat Racing in...
Par for the course here on this Blog.... it is the supreme rulers "position" that somehow the people at Horizon are now charged with "making this right".... they sold a USED boat, I am assuming that it was being operated by the new Owner who is responsible for INSURING IT, and assumes the...
