Okay finally got to process a few pics. I took almost 2,000 today, so its going to take me awhile. The quality seems a little off this time, I'm using a rental camera. Pretty nice though, hopefully I'll be buying one soon.

Tony Scarlata had a bit of a wild ride in the K Boat Final today, thankfully he is okay. He did what looked like a complete roll over, landed it, and kept the boat running. Pretty wild stuff.

How did the SE heats/finals go? I assume they put on one heck of a show...

And Andrew Barker had to give up the trophy to Heath in the GN event??? I imagine that was some serious racing with the GNs...

How did LOCK and the GUNPOWDER GN run???


TY for the pics Mr V....

Man taking this many pics is a ton of work. Thank you Todd for sharing your badass camera with me, much appreciated.

This is a huge batch, and I'm not done processing. All in all great weekend of racing!!

I still have around 700 photos to go through, but right now, I'm hungry and thirsty, so.......

Btw, if you racers want any of the high resolutions files, shoot me an email: vic@hotboat.com I believe I can send up to around 8MB, some of these files are 10+MB, so I'll have to chop them down a little. Or there are other ways to send large files if you're computer savvy, just let me know.

by all means, get some fireball and pizza :)

hey, how did the El Cid K999 boat look? Did it take a good set OR was it all over the place like I've seen it act before?

Why didn't you watch the live feed?? They have really got that El Cid figured out even for these short courses now. Steve and Guthrie looked freaking awesome out there, too!! Amazing. Still not like being there smelling that methanol, but it was nice that we could watch some of it!

Can't wait to see the rest of what you caught on that camera of yours. You're becoming quite the expert! [emoji6]

Thank you, it's a 19'6" hallett SS (sport skier) but I'm hunting for a rayson craft before the next race, the hallett isn't going to get the job done. Great river boat/endure/etc but to much vee for a GN in my opinion. Ihttps://vimeo.com/178417955

You can see in the video how hard I have to drive her compared to the guys in the raysons

You're wanting a 19 GN rayson or a 21 Rayson cruiser type like the GN24(dcucci layup) or the old GN47?

I do like your hull allot... I have always been a HUGE fan of the look of the 21 Rayson...

Once upon a time there was a burgundy Hallet parked at marine stadium, I think it was someone that Mike Maginn knows... It was stunning, super clean...

In a closed area like Marine Stadium I think the 21 rayson type (bigger hulls) have the advantage over the Rayson 19 GN hulls, they cant handle the rough stuff like the bigger/deeper hulls... My 2 cents...

^^^^ the original GN24 body snatcher...

Ole Bob HATED to hear/see me say how much I love the 21 Rayson hulls over his 19 GN Rayson... RIP Bob...

Right on... The shit that a GN boat can break is amazing... Everything has to be right ON to finish an event, no half azz stuff in the GN class...
