This is a six-year-old Del Snyder hydro that underwent new paint and a transom extension over the holidays in preparation for 102sh competition in NBRA's 2005 season. Power is a Y202.

This hull was Minnesota's Ben Blume's APBA 27G until I bought it last September to replace my original B&H that was severely damaged after blowing off a trailer. Ben had taken excellent care of this boat...it's like new inside.

Paint is four coats of PPG polyurethane enamel (Starthane) Chrome Yellow. Went on like a dream with a HVLP gun at 35 psi.

Can't wait for the water to warm up!

You bought a good solid predictable boat. I drove it the last two heats of the season, won them both! with a 25xs.......... you put a nice looking paint job it. ;)

Hi Dan, the repaint looks great. Del calls his boats "Snyder Spyders". We'll have to cook up a logo for you to put on it somewhere. Donny Allen is running one very similar to yours and doing quite well. Get your setup right and you will be right in the hunt. Til' Roostertails Fly, Mike Franck 67G
