Greg Watt's Future Shock Dynasty - He always tried to develop something different !!
1985 Future Shock 1 - Knealcraft Hull with an 8 litre big-block powerplant
1988 Future Shock II - Knealcraft Hull with a Mercury 200 HP SMOC outboard - cheap to run & more reliable to finish !!
Raced it 4 times - 1988 & 89 Southern 80's in Novice SMOC getting two 3rd places, mixed results so it was sold off
1990 Future Shock lll - yes, a Sports Sprint Boat with a 200 HP Mercury on it - Bloody fast in a Straightline - Photo is yours truly on the deck at Lake Boga - 90 Mph but wouldn't turn - it was like an engine on an icy pole stick, so it was also scraped & turned into my social fun boat
1991 Future Shock IV a 1750 Destroyer {Bullet knock-off} was made for season 1991 - much more successful - trophied in most races entered & towed it up to Darwin for the Australian Championships in May 1994 behind one of his Buses.

Greg retired from competitive Ski-racing not long after focusing on his Raceprint Business

1987 Sydney / Windsor Bridge to Bridge Program, Records & All Results
Winner outright was Twin-rig post-hole digger Moonlight Creeper in a time of 46.30.06 best ever for an outboard - Lester's Moonshot still retained his record of 46.04.02 - Bu**er all in it !!!!

Hope you like the reminiscing ski racers
