also the top and bottom togather before they were put togather weighed 68lbs
 
That outer chine modification is not what I expected it to look like...
I bet that thing will not be 'rotationally challanged'. :)

68lbs is impressive!


it might actually work ok, it's similar to the eme 800's. Eric said they do that to the 800 because the hull need it to backflip easier, he doesnt do it on the 1000cc version because the motor makes up for it. Newer versions of his hull will have a piece that bolts in that void so the owner can ride whichever he prefers.

That's interesting. I wonder what it does for handling? I would assume it loosens things up a bit. I wonder if I'll have to do some cutting on my hull after Daytona...

the boat should be down their at daytona to test.I dont think malones boat are as extream as mine but hes pushin alot more power than my 5mm will.
 
i can imagine it would be much more dramatic handling change on a narrower hull than a wider one. heres some pics of the number 1 07 comp boat.
