Hey, wicked nubee from Northeast U.S. here.

I'm looking for pictures and info to mod an SLT once I buy one in the coming months.

Who and/or what make the fastest prop for these boats, or are modded props the way to go?

Lot's of good info here!

Thanks, Bill.

Bill - you failed to say what SLT class you are seaking questions for. :confused:

Here are some pictures for ya. We have a strong group here in the state of Michigan that run at many club races including the famed Top O' Michigan marathon race.

Hey, Thanks.
I'm seeking info on any and all classes to find out what boat would be good to blast on Boston Harbor: maybe a hybrid of a couple of them. Just for fun for now, no sanctioned events. If I meet up with Fast Fred on his way out to Stellwagon, all I can do is just follow the water in the air and hopefully catch up to him after he is already there!

You are really have to start with the people that build these style of craft there is the Thunder cat racing site out of aus,there are a bunch of web sites on the other side of the pond.We here in the US get the scraps when it comes to inflatable boat racing there are only a few buliders here and have no racing sucess as of yet.And why would anyone want to pay 2to3 thousand more for a boat that is made here and wont be as fast as one from S.A. If you look hard enough the you wil find out what boat is the best Hek! I have had five of these things and every one has been totally differnt just gonna have to find what works

Bill - Here is a lead on what you need. This equipment at Cupps racing in Michigan is fast and competitive. They have very good clean,well maintained equipment and you would not be disapointed in at least talking with him. His "for sale" link is below. His name is John.
