Fortunately, it didn’t hit anything as it flew apart!

Mine is still going together....

I like what a friend of mine told me this weekend. “ you can’t rush an artist “
After riding in Sam’s boat this weekend and seeing how they are built at the factory I agree.

Was hoping to have it at the lake Powell shoot out in September. That’s not going to happen. And I’m not going to rush it.
There’s no shortage of boats in the barn.

My buddy Bill is making it stupid fast...
Super hot 2.5 is putting it in the low 9’s.
Super light hull... and 10,000+ RPM.
I’ll have Bill post up some pictures and most recent stats on the QM.
Bill also has a DBR 300x powered Allison
and a 125 mph STV w/ 2.5 DBR.
He sports a big twin Yamaha center console that he fishes offshore with Stoker 2001 (Kevin Kraft) The two of them slay some big fish together!

The boat is owned by Church member , Bill Erklund. He fixed what was wrong and made a killer out of it!

Qmaster with the right set up are very very quick. The color scheme of Bills is very similar to a boat over on this coast. Marty Logan had one set up on kill with a couple stages of spray.

Who’s boat is this? I saw him run at Ming. Only outboard there and he held his own.
Ya that was literlly Bills first time in boat.ran 9.50 ET down one cylinder..not bad for 151 cubic inch with zero power adder..should be solid Top/Eliminator boat in full quarter mile or 7.0s in 1000'.He plans on making Parker race in Fall and World Finals in November.Love to see the underdog/fishing motor run with the 800+hp iron skillets:p

Iron Skillet ... lmao!

Here’s my favorite skillet !!... my buddy Darren...
He drives the shit out of his boat. Great racer, great guy. Considered a full Church member... watch him at this years Parker Enduro. The GN 22 and our War Canoe were so similar in lap times it was uncanny. The Armenian Navy will earn your respect on the water.

Well if they would let us race I'd consider spending the 10k it would cost me to travel all the way there to get fucked anyway.

Hats of to the Nolans and Scarletti.
