I was waiting for this to hit the OS boards. I got the info right after it happened.
I've been on the boat, and yes it's a bit eccentric, but it's also badass. Only damage is the extreme SB motor's prop and the 2nd one in's cavitation plate. They were only running about 40mph when it happened. The motor was shut down and did not ingest water or damage anything. A friend of mine with an awesome set of tools and a spray gun will be tidying up the damage.
I wonder if Eric was planning on running some circle track dirt racing? I figured he was just setting the toe for better bite in the corners.
BTW, it's still a factory owned boat, and I don't think anyone needs to be called stupid for pushing a bit past the norm. The boat attracts a lot of attention which is what it was meant to do in the first place. And you are hard pressed prying the chicks off of it.
.. pushing the bounderies is one thing, but then execute properly.. not half the way...especially after you bring it to the show. The paint job was the best part of the boat...LOL... Secondly, more than a year has gone by and the boat still has had some rigging issue's...Stupid was the rude salesmen trying to explain how these boats are the state of art, and that no other boat company compares..I mentioned attention to rigging along with some mold issues and a few other things in the cabin boat that was apperant compared to their competition.. like Yellow Fin, Bahama and some of the others...to get blown off...Tom Mason did a better job. Anyways.. my buddy ended getting a 36 YF.
