The model:  Tim had Mitch build him a new Hawaii Kai III for 2011.  The boat is light and fast.  It looks good on the water too.  Tim is working out the kinks and dialing in the ride.  This boat and driver definitely have good potential, so look for good things to happen.

The real boat: A legendary boat owned by Edgar Kaisar.  This boat was driven to a 1958 Gold Cup win by Jack Regas and broke the straightaway speed record in 1957.
