Stryker VII "Dead-On" at Radar Gun

Shows 35QD / Stryker running dead-on at the radar gun. There's some skill involved to get the boat lined up straight at the gun. To compensate for prop walk, without rudder correction; you have to start your speed pass at a left angle. As the boat accelerates and tracks right, you want to end up as straight as possible at the radar gun to avoid angle error. Any (angle error) will display less speed on the gun. Any rudder used to track the boat directly at the radar, will also slow you down significantly.
