1984 Bud Dimesions

Not talking toy boats here. How long was the real boat that Dean Chenoweth drove? Was U 12 or U 1 cab over design.

Hey Jim! I checked 3 different sources & got 3 different dimensions. I am planning to attend "Hot Rods & Hydros" this coming Saturday at the HARM. I will measure the hull. Any other dimensions you are interested in?

Nope that's all. I'm figuring about 28 or 29 feet long.

Hey Jim - My long time friend and life-time member of the HARM, Kirk Johnson, and I measured the 8012 Miss Budweiser today. The hull bottom and the non-trips on the after-plane are 1" longer than the deck so the "overall" length of the hull is 29' 8". We would probably have to sit down with Ron Jones to find out for sure if any of the dimensions were changed over the years. Hope this is what you were looking for!
