Keep the update coming, this is interesting. Can you say why you're doing this or is that TMI?? Don't want you guys to lose any competitive edge, so if you don't want to say, please don't.

Can you explain what you mean by the "flip factor," is that like literally flipping over or something else?

The drop down chines were way too big, a huge part if why Chris ended up in the ocean in long beach.. Making it safe. None of us want to see this again!!

Well that clears up the meaning of "flip factor" pretty clearly! Hope he was ok.

Wow, was he OK as far as injuries?

He was hurt, just deep muscle and bone bruising, been off the crutches and cane for about two weeks now.. It threw him out clean then the boat landed on his legs.

It sure seems like the salt water being thicker and more dense would also add to the flip factor, maybe ...maybe not but swimmers and water skiers sure notice a difference.. btw, can't want to see the K034 back out there racing! Big fan here
