The model:  Pete made this boat from a hull bought from West Coast Custom Boats. He finished it with a cowling kit from HydroScale Creations and his own artistic talent. The boat looks great and performs fantastically. It won the 2019 CT season championship in its first season. He looks to defend the championship in 2020.

The real boat:  The boat started out as the first turbine powered Atlas Van Lines in 1984. It was designed by Jim Lucero and masterfully driven by Chip Hanauer. It is said to have been Chip's favorite boat to drive.
