I just think Jim (in the 512 boat) didn't want anyone telling him how to drive(kidding, Jim and I are friends)! I do have one photo somewhere of his boat "laying over" from a swell.

The boys are good friends and likely did it for fun as much as anything else, but I don't have personal knowledge of the handling of that Hallett. In the past I think the race has included a "ski race boat" class that required two people in the boat, never read the final rules this year.
