Uncovered this the other day. Forgot it was still around. Might have to put some foot straps on it an take her for a spin. I remember it was heaps faster than my storm 8 It will go well with my pld Z boom hanging around as well

Might go even faster if you shift footstraps and mast base back a few feet.
And do I detect a plastic fin lurking underneath there????

I've got a windrush mast foot some where. I will see if i can get a rig on it. If i can i will look at fitting some foot straps and we can all take it for a spin. i remember it was really smooth in chop. Once up to speed it should stty there being so heavy.

The jimmy lewis plastic cutaway fin might have to go

I had one of those, bought it new !

The funniest thing was they put out a big spray either side of your when planing. I can remember my friend saying he could tell when I was near just because of the spray (as it would hit him as I zoomed past). I bought it just as I was learning to water start and by the time I got it (after ordering it) a few weeks had gone buy and I had already progressed and it was too big. I was in Carnarvon at the time so there was pretty much always wind. But I cant remember what colour it was - not white I know that.
