Last race of the season already??

I will probably be leaving the rigger home this day, and bringing my P-Mono out for some testing.

Any ideas why my LSH was dogging in the turns? I was happy w/the straights. I'd like to figure that out before Michigan, so you can help me after the race if you don't want me whooping up on you...

What prop are you running and where is your CG?

Turn Fin, That boat cornered just fine till you put that fin that your wife liks so much on it. At least thats my guess, if I remember correctly thats the only change you've made
I'll bring my P mono also should be fun

Pat-Do you have the ability to weld a heinkel back together for my knife drawer?

I ran an X642 the last day of racing. I'll have to play around with the turn fins again...Maybe back to the ABC 45/55 also. However, I don't think my boat kept the speed up in the turns with the old fin either. More testing.

Sure thing.........but I wouldn't try any Yan Can Cook action with it!.....:D Is it a 5 Star or a 4 Star cheapo?

Try moving your CG forward to free up the back...

The way Kara is complaining, I bet it's a 6 star. I keep telling her it was a duplicate never used...doesn't help.

COG is 1 " aft of the sponsons now. I'll mess with that also.
