Something like that. The boat is in Florida getting a complete restoration. So far a lot of uneccessary weight was removed from the original rigging.

I remember reading about that. Looked like a cool boat. There was a picture of it somewhere aired out in the ocean.

If it's the pic I'm thinking of, it was a photoshop! ;)

I am serious,,,i spoke to the guy and the reason why it said "not the actual picture" or somthing like that ...is because its not looking this good anymore.

But i do believe its a real airshot, if u look at it closer u see the shadow and all.

I just don't buy it. The boat and the people in the boat don't even look real and look at the outline around the whole boat.. The tabs all the way up in that kind of water...there's no prop on the #6', yadda yadda yadda... I guess if the guy told me himself I would believe it but then again he's french...there ain't no room for truth on the internet so I'll stick by my original observation. ;)

Photoshop.

You can see the white under the hull edge from about half way forward to about the bow curve where it was missed a little when made.....

Plus the water spray at the back, bottom of the pic stops at a 45 degree angle.

I reloaded it in my serif and looked up close. With a little more work, you'd almost never know. Except the three girls in the back seat are sitting with their hands on their laps......

My guess is that was in 1 to 2's and then pasted in the big one.

My opinion....

The white line is the bottom of the boat ( hull ).

Well,,,it does not matter but if u look close, u can see the waterspray hitting the big wake he just came off, so why can't it be real,,,,it looks like only 3 feet above the water @ the stern,,,i was higher then that before in a smaller boat at 35+ MPH !?

mmmmhhhh.

Still ,,,,,,anyhow....cool pic and nice boat it was and will be again.

Is not a Photoshop. I was in the boat at the time, front right.

Picture was taken by Fly Pictures.

The bottom of the boat was white.

If not fake, it definitely looks "touched up" or the image quality is that poor. ;)

Should have more pics of the "Hammerhead" in the comming weeks, so stay tuned!

[QUOTE]

Don't think we purchased the negative so I think origin of the picture on here is my brother who scanned the print and posted it on OO.com, when we were looking to sell it. May have been touched up subsequently.

Just to clear up a few other points: definately still had both propellors when we got back to port. Dad was driving and suspect he had tabs up to keep nose up in following sea and keep all dry.


Looking forward to seeing the new pictures of it when it is complete. Has any of the weight been stripped out of it in the re-fit? What power will it have?

Yes, a lot of wiring and duplicatation rigging was eliminated, along with a large amount of 1/2" plywood. :driving:

As soon as I have some updated pics I'll put them up! Thanks for checking in!:cheers2:
