Brian demonstrating how you tow a heavy cat back to shore. This is his new HPR150.

Brian's fleet of HPR cats or actually just a small portion of his fleet that would fit in the back of a panel van.

Ralf Moser and his 100+MPH electric mono. This boat made one pass at 109.88mph. Not to shabby.

The motor controller required to power Ralf's 100mph is so big it needs its own picture

Running close all week, getting the job done last possible second, reminds me of another run in LA a few years back.

Maybe this should be called "THE RUN" too!

Allan,

All I will say it was somewhere between 44 and 47mm, a 2 blade design recast in Stainless by Brent Daily of Prop Works West. We have been working on the shape, thickness and diameter for 1 year to get it right.

Just for run... NOT a "fuelie"... but 70-ish isn't a bad start for a 25", 2-cell Radtek Mystic Cat with a single 28mm motor... First weekend on the water.
