I will definitely be there if Andy is coming . I guess we figured we'd wait until the 100 degree weather passed before we did it again. I hope everyone can make it.

I got four engines on the bench torn all the way down. Needed parts have been ordered and or cleaned. Getting ready to apply a dry film lubricant for reduced friction, longer life and added R's.

Sounds like you will be loaded for bear. I fixed the sheeting on my SI20 that met up with a stump so I should be testing it with a few minor tweaks soon.

I also put bumpers on my red boat for the race, but I won't get to use them until i'm lapping you

The pond has been seeing some good rain this past week and looks to be top condition for the meet. I went down there today and it was like glasssss

I can't wait to see some boats back out there!

Can't wait to see your hulls in action. Sounds like some epoxy spreading is in your near future. That paint looks cool!

The boats are almost ready. I have a few more enignes to tear down and replace bearings and treat them with a dry lubricant. Two of the five I'm bringing and fine tuned and ready to go....

Since it does'nt look like I will be able to go to La. this year, I plan on making it to Dunnellon at least on one of those days. Looking forward to it. Hope I can get a group together to go over there. Are you planning on being there Crispyspa? I've met Chris, Rich, and several others at the Dunnellon meet the last time and had a great time. Dennis

Sounds great! I wouldlike to attend this event on the dates listed. The only drawback is if I can finish building the new boat in time. Please give me more details if any. Thanks, Chad

Anyrhing really I am coming over from Cocoa and want to make sure that I get to the right place. I looked at the last address and it looks like a pond with houses around it is it ok to run there or are the old ladys going to chase us off with their rolling pins lol.

It is a public lake for the neighborhood it is in that I have received permission to use. You can use google or google earth to get directions from your location.

I hope to attend also. Will be checking the family schedule & work schedule in the next day or two. Google Earth'd the new location, looks very good! But might be a LONG hike if a boat has a radio issue and decides to see what's on the far bank! Hoping someone will have a Jon boat or equivalent.

Jeez, I need to get a better boat running soon!
