Notes about the model: new hull for 2007  proved to be difficult to sort out. In pre season testing was nearly scrapped two weeks prior to the start of the season.

Notes about the real boat:  built by Les Staudacher with an attempt at the propeller driven water speed record in mind. The attempt was made, but the Pak came up short. The boat went on to compete in heat racing with driver Tommy Fults, but its design caused limitations in cornering ability and performance. It was soon abandoned and replaced by a more conventional Pay ’n Pak hull.

Notes about 2007: A brand new boat for the 2007 season, the Outrigger won nine races and was the winner of the Red Dot Championship Series boat standings.
