I saw there is a soft rail on the hull of the Tiger at the Olympic trials. Any other changes?

Does that soft deck just glue on over the rough anti skid or does the hull need to be sanded smooth first?

Rich - the Wild Cat has that deck pad - that's all you need to know since you're selling the Tiger right? :)

If I sell the Tiger yes but till then I'm on the Tiger. So if there is something that can make my Tiger nicer then I will go for it.

Contact Denis Keys with SNU - he sells some foam pad material that guys have used on their hulls for a while now. Greg Thomas used some on his H16 last season I think too.

From photos I've seen, Mr. Thomas put white hydro-turf on the 16 rails
