I think the red one is 46 ft and the white is 50 ft, are they the same boat modified?

I looked at the white one last year up in Signal Hill. It's for sale again and up in Marina Del Rey. Don't know if they're the same, but there's a number of guys who will on this site. There's a discussion about the white one on the other site from last year as well.

Yep, same boat. I painted it red with the gentry name on it, it was Budweiser before that.

I believe the white 38 in the last picture was flipped at one of the first OPT races in San Diego.....
