This actually answers one question I had after looking at the photo in my local paper. See
http://gennick.com/race_to_mackinac.html. I have a couple more questions that I'll throw out, if you don't mind:

How do you suppose Larry moves this boat around from one race to the next? Would it fit on a truck?
The boat next to Larry's (see URL above) appears to have two wheels. Why? Am I misinterpreting what I'm seeing?

Best regards,
