Interesting. I hadn't really thought of that before. Most of the posts after major events talk about "They won on a (Wildcat/Capricorn/insert model here)" but rarely do people mention that the boat may have been highly modified (and whether it is truly representative of performance you can expect off-the-shelf).

Or, maybe I just missed it.

Couldn't these guys have won on a stock Wildcat? I guess we'll never know.

[EDIT: I know, it's a formula rule, so it's OK. I'm just commenting on how the OD class gurus (and sometimes the factory guys) claim victory for the boat model (even if they claim that's not the agenda)...]
