I was late to the show; didn't realize it would be over at noon. Oops. Saw First Team coming into the dock. No sign of Bill. Hope you guys had a good day!

Hey Bill, wished you had told me, I was there on La Bella Vita. Anyhow, a link to video I took in the race we were in. Had the hauling motor engaged the whole race by accident, forgot to take it out after pulling anchor. Wouldn't matter though, Uncle is too fast for anyone in Diesel class that day!

If I knew the boat I would have spent a lot more time checking it out. Wow, that thing is incredible. Looks like it got a little squirly in the Jonesport race this year!

Did Uncle's U.F.O. get a chance to race with Thunderbolt and or Little Girls? From what I hear all three boats are running in the same speed range....(crap, I mean at searsport, I know these boats didn't race each other at stonington).

 

[F/V First Team]

The gas boats all tucked tail and went on their trailers

Gotcha Travis, let me ask you this,, in your opinion as a wily old vet of L.B. racing, who do you think would have came out on top between the ufo, little girls and thunderbolt?

 

[F/V First Team]

Before turbos were spooled up, gas has the advantage
After turbos spooled up it would be very close
