One of the baddest of all the T-boats! Kevin's OMC powered Critchfield! This thing is full of his creative machine work and other details that he can fill us all in on. And runs mid 70's

Sheesh Mitchie you are slacking. I was wondering when BotM for July was going up :)

Very cool race boat. You can tell all the attention to detail from the photos and have always admired it. Another great selection!

Thank you!
I was surprised when Mitchie told me he wanted some pictures of my Critch for BOTM. I didn't expect to see a T boat here.
The boat is an original Critchfield which Brian Sherriff used to race out here in Formula V before it went to the States for a couple owners. I brought it back from Ohio last year, rigged it and built a 15" 56ci OMC for it. I made the adapter plate and tuner, wingplates, trim gauge, solid mounts, trim bracket/trasom plates, adjustable set back and likely a couple other things I'm forgetting. Next will be a custom dash. I'll get a couple pictures of some of the parts up here tomorrow. The boat also contains about 44 pool noodles for floatation.
