Here is some pics of the first of three D MOD "SoBoats" feels good to be building boats again since 1985

If you are racing in APBA you will need to round off the tips of your sponsons. In case no one has told you, It is required for all mod boats built after October 2007.

[john527]

Yes we know.. 1 inch radius, it will be round when it is decked.

Stock outboard is 1/2 inch, Mod and Pro are 1 inch

OH MY!! Does everthing on our site have to turn into a pissing match!!! They will figure it out or will be making some modifications..All that had to be said was they had better double check the rules...End of story!!!!

The boat looks nice especially since it is a D Mod

[Merc1]

No pissing, just stating facts...... They know the correct answer. Read page 3

Looks cool....what design is it? You guys going to put any twist into hull before you put decks on? Sure would look sweet with a Tohatsu on the back.
