While the engineering is somewhat impressive (think Rube Goldberg) That boat does absolutely zero for me, I've seen a ton of pictures of it on the 'net and not one of them has ever been in the water, much less making a pass. Seems like a big penis extension to me. But what do I know.

you are right=i have seen it at the lake and never seen it in the water

« **Reply #3 on:** August 10, 2008, 09:06:54 PM »

looks like the wing alone would sink it

There is a small block under there somewhere . I'd love to at least hear it run .

Just my .02
He has a very difficult hull to work with combined with (what should be) a decent amount of power. The 2 don't usually work well together. I'm guessing this is why we don't see many action shots of the boat.

So he just carts it around as a novilty

To each his own I guess .

All I know is, that everyone loves the guy. If I were up there I would've walked over to look at it.

Possibly home of the quickest hydros this side of a professional dragboat race, CFW is (IMO) the v-drive trailer queen capital of the world.

four hairdryers......... Damn!

The wing seems to be leaning towards the retarded side of things for me. Maybe we will see this in the next fast and furious movie. "Fast and furious west coast Trailer queens." Interesting dual stage turbo setup though. Looks like small turbos for out of the hole and large turbos to keep the top end going? or am I just on crack. Looks like two sizes of hair dryers to me.

just to chime in a little on this boat. Wicked, but if you can't run it regularly what is it worth. I'd rather have a POS like mine that runs everytime I turn the key than a sick looking trailer queen. Just my $.02
