They are light and fast, but the motors are 9.9 2 strokes I think.
Don't think it is the first time in 22 years, but it's been 22 years since doing the crossing to Vancouver.Yeah I think so too. Not %100 percent on this but dimly recollect hearing/reading or talking to a fellow who said something about 9.9 tweaked to 15hp? Maybe just something I dreamed up? It sure looks like a blast eh? I had a 9.9 on a 12’ aluminum I used in the South Thompson and that thing flew so I can only imagine how fast these guys are going. Just read an article saying first time they’ll be racing in 22 years. Trying to find how long the crossing takes them but no luck.
