    I remember a couple of years ago when the weather beat the sh!t out of all of the boats. Good for them, it would be fun. MG

    I really like sea pro’s 172. I think they run it with a 70hp as per the rules in this and they run much better with a 90/115.

    Still be pulling for them or key west.

    Id only consider 2 of those "skiffs". I'm surprised there are not more manufacturers doing it this year.

    Big difference between a HB and a Key West

    Yup. Ones ridiculously priced.

    Edited to add: I’m just jealous.

    Mike and Mike and the key west crew are holding they’re own. It’s been a pretty shitty boat ride for all those teams today.

    Sea pro must be having big problems. Key west was looking good but must have forgot they have to check in somewhere? Had to backtrack half the keys

    Sea Pro rolled into Marco Island needing a new radio, missing the motor cowl, and a broken driver's seat. They left, headed for KW, but I don't see them on the map anymore.

    One of those Hells Bays is on the hard deck right now. Do not know if they quit or just needed repairs. MG

    My goal is to design and build a "skiff" and compete one day

    They’re done, motor acting up.
