I hear you can get the same effect by drinking a Red Bull cut with seawater.

Bill, I saw the "Sportboat" at the bottom of the pic that was posted. I have 2 Grumman Sportboats, one vintage - one almost new, 2006. Could you post or send the Sportboat section ? I've been looking for early info and materials.
BTW - There was a Grumman with the foils at Atlantic Outboard in Cordova MD a couple ears ago. She told me it was going to MT. Dora later that year for the show. I didn't see it up here the last time i stopped by. Twas Way Cool though !

Many Many thanks. I've been looking for a while for early materials re: the Sportboat and TA DA, here it is. I have an older one and a newer one and they look like twins except for a few hardware differences and some vinyl trim on sheet ends - a VW Beetle of aluminum boats, if it works well , don't change it. From the motor in the pic I'm guessing it's from around 1955.
