For purposes of readability on the Web, the following has been transcribed from the original endorsement letter. Dear Sirs, Thank you for allowing me to test your product on my 1997 Bass Cat Pantera II bass boat. When I first talked to you about the product I was skeptical, as a lot of people would be. But, as with anything, don't knock it till you have tried it. I found that the boat ran significantly better than prior to the application of the Hyspeedkote. The top end speed was increased 3-4 mph and the rpm was increased approx. 300. There was not even a significant decrease in performance when the bow was trimmed down and the boat was running flat on the surface. One of the most important things I have found was, that because of Hyspeedkote application the boat moved around much better when being powered by the trolling motor with no drag on the hull, the batteries did not discharge nearly as quickly, and the boat seemed to move about more smoothly. Bow slap was also significantly reduced, which is important when bass are spooky in clear or shallow water situations. Between the practice days and the official tournament days we sometimes travel several hundred miles on the body of water we are fishing. Using Hyspeedkote could mean a significant savings in fuel costs. I have also experimented with Hyspeedkote using various types of crank baits. After the initial application and drying, I put them in a sink to do the "wet-in" process. That way they are ready to go. I was not sure if this would work on these lures, but it does. When using crank baits, there is a lot of resistance when they are being pulled through the water. With Hyspeedkote the resistance has been reduced by 75%, and the hare is much more sensitive, which translates into being able to feel the strike better. Thanks for allowing me to test Hyspeedkote, it's really a product that lives up to it's billing. Sincerely, Bill Grotjahn Back to testimonials
