You got that right! I need all the training wheels that I can get, just in case.

How about this for extra stability for a BJ or SV...remember Hawaii Five-O? They had the dugout canoes with the outriggers lashed on...maybe one sticking out about 2 feet on each side!! http://www.ballinaoutriggers.com.au/images/header06.jpg

A co-worker here has a Villain EX with 13T motors and upgraded CF51 props and when he gets it up to speed it chine walks until it does an endo (He also runs 7 cell packs in it). He sinks it a lot. I told him that he's asking a lot from a (very) deep vee hull! He can show you a good example of chine-walking!
