The U-57 FEDCO presents Formulaboats.com crew spent all day Wednseday preparing the hull for testing, qualifying, and preliminary heats scheduled for Thursday.

After a long journey across the Atlantic the boat needed some serious cleaning and the usual pit area assembly which typically includes some of the following: installation of skid fin, selection of propeller, installation of motor and gearbox, assembly of wing and fairings, fueling, sealing of deck hatches (protection from salt water), test-firing, and application of new sponsor decals!

Needless to say, our animated veteran driver N. Mark Evans is "pumped" and ready to go as always! For anyone that would like to know more about Mark and his adventures visit Home (http://www.u4hydro.com) !

More updates to come later in the day!
