Anyone know what happened to Paul Pachmayer?

[Paul Pachmayer]

Hey Guys,

LMFAO!!! Terry, wasn't it a swig of rum then a swig of Coke then jump up and down to mix it up?? The "Blue Blaster" oddly enough is still in one piece. So are several of my "Dew" boats.

Email is paul at paracordpaul dot com, just don't want to spell it out on a forum and get spammed.;-)

The bonfire...cripes what a night. I still think the H&M Spider should be a legal sport hydro. How much racing is still going on?

Paul.

With all you "old timers" yapping about the good ole days... I want to see some more photos.

Way back then, we had to take the film to the drugstore to have it developed. Hard to post them, but I'll try.

Paul,it's about the same. Pockets. There are a ton more boats out there though. Then a handful of us bitching because nobody wants to race.

The tech has settled some. No new battery chemistry threatening to kill all of man kind. A LOT of motor and speedo options now. You can go pretty fast without having to donate an organ. The big draw is limited spec these days. Big boats run together from 6s depending on who brought what.

My posts are still entertaining but I've finally managed to get to a position where nobody cares what I say......like before. HAHA

Still having fun. Glad to hear you are doing well.

Look what I found....

It was in a folder marked MC5. Pachman and Jevmax.

I'll see if I can find any more tidbits.

[T.S.Davis]

The chairman, Jaques, and the Yeti Randy Naylor and a flock of big boats all from Michigan Cup 5. I guess that's 2004?

[T.S.Davis]

One more from the 2006 nats in Jersey. This one is Twaits Junior and Senior, Eddy Hansen and Chris Kostanza. Mmmmman that was a fun trip.

Whiping through the toilet bowel.....er Camper Dearborn.

I recall Brooks/Pach late nite in WI, after all the good little boaters went to their respective over night arrangements, those guys set off a 5000 mah lipo by overcharging it. I think it took 15,000 before ignition.

There's gonna be a race in OH again this year according to Howard. Check out the IMPBA race schedule. Would be a good time for a "get-to-gether"!!! I'll bring the firewood!!!

Maybe we should threaten to rough up the Canadians and just make them meet us all in Ohio. It's a thought.

They talk tough but they just don't have any nads!!!!!

Went through my notebook looking for pics.....must all be on the old computer....good thing I have most of the parts.

[T.S.Davis]

I don't know how far into planning the Canadians are. I was thinking maybe you guys could convince them to bail and just pack there crap and come south. Now all we need to do is pry that rock up where Reesor is hiding and race some boats.

Fred told me he found the disk from RCBM from 2004 when Matt Boyd was out to hang with us. Very few people shots but a TON of rediculously huge hi-res boat shots. Some of those pics are 12 meg each.

Although I really hate Bruce Springstunk "Glory Days..."

2006.. Was that the year the tornados came through?
Anyway.. Paul was and is a stand up dude. I know he had some issues with my job change but that never deflated my like for the dude.. Lots of laughs from that cat. And taking the burn on the tip of his nose from that SS700 for me still makes me laugh each time I think of it.

Come back and play toy boats with us some say man!

Lets tip one back for Paul!

I think the monsoon was 2005. 3000 sq.ft of tent dangling from the teathers like a spider in a web. As it was coming in Randy was out in the aluminum boat hunting for a sunk boat. We had to yell to him to come in. That storm came in so fast he never even noticed the sky. It went green/yellow/purple in a few minutes. The pond level came up over a foot in about 20 minutes. Fun times.

What about you Grim? You know where Ohio is right? hahaha We really do all need to get together. Some sort of FE extravaganza reunion debauchery tour........thing. Fred wants to resurrect the Michigan Cup. We're still tossing around possibilities.
