- Hi, I'm Larry Rae and I live at Woodville in the Hunter Valley
[15mins from Raymond Terrace & 2 hrs north of Sydney]. I am a
member of Raymond Terace Aquatic Club and Port Stephens Regatta Club
[both powerboat racing clubs].
- I bought Sacrifice in 1992, second hand with no motor, it was
2 years old & previously raced with a 6 lt Chev pushing it along.
- It is an 18’ 6” “Bruce Everingham Shallow V” made in Moree
with an Argo V Drive.
- I had a Big Block 454 Chev from a previous boat [see
before] so I set the boat up to take this engine. It
started off pretty mild with a Crane cam & a Holley 780, TRW 12:1
pistons & everything else just about stock, running on Avgas.
- An early, single carby
Sacrifice
[Myall Lakes]
- I mainly concentrated on club racing at
Raymond Terrace in the early days and the occasional Spectacular at
Mungo Brush, Toukley and Toronto.
My first trophies~1993- In 1993 I put a pair of Holley 660
centre squirters on a polished tunnel ram and installed a "bigger"Crane
cam which gave me a fair bit more power. [I still use this cam today]
See MOTOR for the latest engine.
- I ran this combination up until 1998,
with different modifications here and there over the years.
- In 1995 I was timed
through the "Kilos" at 93 mph [149 kph] with 42% step-up in the gearbox
using a Stelling 14"pitch prop.
- In 1997 I changed to
a Menkins 16" pitch prop and 23% gearing to get more revs and I
was doing about 102 mph at 6500rpm. It is the combination of
acceleration and top end speed that wins races.
