2024 Seafair Apollo Mechanical Cup Saturday Morning 

Sea-fair Hydro's in the 50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's were fantastic. Boats were on the log-boom, people had pit passes, and the shoreline was packed with people starting a 4am. BYOB and picnic lunches with the family. Hot summer day and cooling off in Lake Washington. Whole thing was free to everyone. Now days you're lucky to find it on television. 😒

this will get interesting...U27, a historic number that once belonged to my favorite boat ever. Again, bow high. Dave seems to have to back off to keep this hull from flipping. I wonder if they have other props that could give them more lift in the stern. Had an interesting discussion one day with Ted Jones about the bottom edge of the transom. He was talking about incremental changes to the hull plating under the transom, how an adjustment there could make up to five mph variation in top speed. I would like to see that plane on the new U27, to see how much lift and release off the cladding at the transom.

Nice Racing 😮😀😊👍🏼

35 J boat is my son❤🎉🎉🎉 proud mama!!!! 1st year❤

Watch how Andrew handles the bow, the pitch on U-91/. Perfectly level. This is what Jimmy did as well. Dylan never figured it out.

U35. A lot of water off that skid fin. Would like to see the shape of the tail of that skid fin.

Jaime is definitely bow high. As if the stern plane never leaves the water.

Oh What a Shocker The Fake Madison Boat draws all the slow boats again and it looks like a rerun of the preliminary heats in Tri-Cities.

Corey is not riding nearly as smooth. Once that nose comes up, the boat starts to porpoise.

Why the hell isn't this televised?

the log boom sure aint what it use to be !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ...................................................it use to be packed ..............

Dont care what boat or what driver it is. They will never again match the excitement of the Rolls Merlin powder boats with Chip Hanauer and the drivers of that era on Lake Washington. These Turbine engines are dull.

2nd time Peabody has washed out Tate. Done it at Madison with a No Call. Be a class act like JM Kelly and Tate on the course as well as off.

I miss the commentary during the whole broadcast, season recap, updates and interviews.

1B great start. I hate that 'get there early and camp out' BS. Glad they got pwned.
