The model: After getting the boat from Mark Bryan repaired some structural and paint damage to the cowl, installed new running gear, added more ride pad, and installed a new div 3 skid fin. So far so good. Now he's concentrating on  getting used to driving a very fast boat in a very fast division of boats! He's well on his way.

The real boat:  This boat, under new sponsorship from the overseas shipping company, was campaigned by the Schumacher Racing Team in 2010 and involved in a Gold Cup accident in Detroit.  It slammed into a wall at high speed and was destroyed after the skid fin let loose coming out of the tight corner there.  Driver J.W. Meyer suffered only a broken foot in the accident and was considered very lucky.
