I don’t suppose you will award bonus points for the best paint job, will you Dan? 37 is in a faded/sanded-down PICO paint scheme. But the red stripes have been covered in white vinyl. The white vinyl doesn’t match the white paint, so it’s kind of a two-tone white striped deck. There are several spots on the deck and canard that are hand-painted in roll-primer (grey). And the cowling and uprights are painted neon yellow and blue in the Peters & May livery. The hull is something of a pig, but all the hardware (engines, electrical, fuel, etc.) are U-37 equipment. The real issue has been modifying the 37 equipment to fit in the Leland hull. But as we were standing around this morning putting stuff in the truck, several people commented that about a month’s worth of work was done in 4 days. Posted on: Jul 22 2010 07:35 PM UTC |

Brad, Thanks for the update! She sounds like a beauty! Good luck to you sir and I will see you in TC. Look for the pink circus hat! I’ll be pullin for the 37 but I don’t think that will be my selection this weekend…maybe I should bring something green and black to wear…hehehehehe or maybe black and maroon?

You guys are missing something, the 5 is struggleling but I look for him to step up his game this race. My favorite dark horse is still the 100, I look for them to race it out with the rest. I would love to see them get a jump on the 1, I think the 96 would just run them down. DV just refuses to loose. Posted on: Jul 23 2010 07:07 AM UTC |

Snook, how about the 17 with Nate? That could be a good play this weekend too. The 5 doesn’t look fully recovered from the Doha flip yet. Posted on: Jul 23 2010 01:01 PM UTC |
