A few pics of my new Stryker Y6 Mono ... reviewed in the next Issue of MGB.com.

Nice mono you have their ... :o

Good lookin bateau ! !
Where are my MGB.com stickers ?? Ed

Thanks guys... I am hoping this will be my racing mono for this year...we'll know soon...it will be hard to be better than my Insane (I like it a LOT). I want a hatchless mono for racing though...if this one doesn't cut it, an old style Insane will... I am confident that this mono will be a good strong runner though.

Ed, the stickers are on order...just don't have the time to do them anymore...hope to have them soon. They will be thermal printed on clear and contour cut. A few different colors available. Will advise when they are available.

Yea, Monos are the BOMB to run ... Just so much fun !!

I have had to shelf mine for the most part because of race day/work conflicts.

Sure looks like a winner tho, long and low :o

Reports have been that the boat just runs great in the rougher stuff, yet still breaks free and runs well in smooth too.

Let us know how it does

Hi Marc,
Whats ther prop that you got Bob to do for your Y6 ???? Also how does it run compared to say your INSANE ???
Also what hardware did you end up using ??? Any Chance of some pics of the hardware set up ??

Regards Tony

I will post more pics of the hardware and a LOT of pics in the review in MGB.com. I used an extended rudder from Insane Boats and a drive from Topsecret Boats. The tabs are Speedmaster and the turn fin is from Herzog Racing. Quite a mix!!! I used parts I had on hand since I didn't get a real setup sheet with the mono, so I did what I thought would work. The prop is a modified 472 from Bob Austin at Propworks. The motor well, it's a CC Racing! ;D And it rocks! Currently using a 2" band Midwest pipe with Cooper stinger muffler.

The verdict you ask??? This is an awesome boat! I ran the bazookas out of it all morning and part of the afternoon at the lake. Was going to test different props and tab/drive adjustments, but to be VERY HONEST it is ready to race as it came out of the build! Didn't touch anything, just kept giving it all I could and it came back to shore every time. I might bring the starboard (right) side tab down just a hair as the boat leaned to the right a little, but really not a problem, I just want to see what that will do. I had a small issue with the stuffing tube which seems to be due to too long a gap at the engine, or the cable collar, not sure... the collar creeped down to the stuffing tube and we all know how well these are balanced. Needless to say it flared the tube enough for me to want to replace it. I will pull the box and inspect. Probably replace it an make it longer. I usually secure the collar right up against the collet to reduce flop, but it was down at the tube rubbing against it. Maybe I hadn't tightened it properly who knows. I will fix this and get back out soon as I can, but I am telling you folks, this one is a winner!
