Mike,

You may want to try an ABC 1715 or 1815 on it.
The roosertail needs more work, you are losing
quite a bit of efficiency with that propeller.
If you have a Novarossi and S-pipe in your collection,
I would try that combination. Our latest 21-Hydros came
in at 3.5 pounds and the Novarossi motors are still the ones
to beat in my opinion. I have a new OS motor in one of my 21-Hydros and it just does not have enough rpm’s in it yet.
The DD-21 or a 35+ are hard to beat. The boat looks good
on the water, and your build has me excited to build the rest of my Jaguar from Jim Wilson.

Just Looking At That Video,

Mark

Mark, is your Jag a Bob Ferguson build?....what vintage?....forgot to ask you.

Yeah, think I need that boat, BTW.....more than happy to trade you this Wing Ding kit for it.

Thanks-

Tim,

It is a Bob Ferguson build. I know Jim had been working on it
before he passed away. It is a custom build that Bob did for
Jim. It is not for sale as it is one of a few nice boats that I
received after Jim passed away. I thank Jerry Dunlap for
sending it to me. It is a beautiful boat just like his 21-Mono
that Chris Davis sent to me as well.

Thanks,

Mark

We'll have to see how it runs against my SGX/Grimm built LS 21 next summer. (You know the one)

Be nice to figure out a way to get more people around here interested in B and D Hydro.

Thanks.

Tim,

You know what they say “ you build it, they will come”
I guess we just have to promote the 21 & 45-hydro classes.
I think it is going to be a year of Sport 20’s and Sport 40’s.

I remember when Bob built that boat and had numerous conversations about it with Jim. Sure miss hearing Jim's voice when he would call for one of our many chats. Every conversation started the same- phone would ring, I'd answer it and hear "have I reached the man cave?" on the other end.

That's the way it has been, for like 2-3 seasons.
