The model:  Lance bought this beauty from Dan Clark for the 2013 and has done well with it.  He's done a great job changing the motor and learning about the set up.  You can see it getting better and better all the time.    

The real boat:  This boat is one of two former Miss Budweiser hulls that is campaigned by the Formula Boats race team.  It's a top notch competitive team with this boat being driven by Jeff Bernard and the other currently driven by J. Michael Kelly.  Both look to be young rising stars in the unlimited ranks.
