as it stands right now your theroy is pretty much correct, Enrique Figueroa in 1st on a Tiger followed by 2 H-16s ahead of another Tiger,I20, MX, So nonspin boats should be able to race against the spin boats using proper hanicaps. Bruce was referring to Enrique when he made the statement about who would win. Enrique is pretty much a professional racer and is just about impossible for the other boats around here to beat anyway,no matter what boat he sails. Last year some boats came down from the states,including Rick Bliss and the Glazers and Enrique,on a tornado, ran away with the Rolex. In fairness to Bruce even with hanidcaps its an uphill battle to beat a spin boat with a non-spin boat.
