oh yes that pics looks kinda old as I see the people on the front and the jack plates under water. One of the new rules was that the boats must be able to float sitting still. Some of these boats where so back heavy that they would sometimes sink if there was some ripples in the water. Thats why we had moving starts. My buddy Kevin would be in the water hanging by the nose like he was just hanging out with me when in actually he was pulling down the nose so the back end would stay upright before the start.
