    Ken,

    A piece of your life just shattered. I feel so bad for you. Please hang in there. If never recovered, don't give up the hobby.

      Ken I emailed you but not sure I have a current one and also messaged you at facebook I will leave the message here also with my offer to you.

      Very sorry to hear about your loss. I am up here in Seattle and I know you were planning on coming to the nats. I was planning on running also but just cant take the time off as I have used up all my sick leave and a lot of vacation helping my son who is currently battling cancer. I have a geico cat that has everything to run it ( I might add was set up by Darin Jordan) and a Spec Hydro that I restored also with a PB 1500 and three sets of batteries, a Hyperion duo charger and radio. That you could use to run in the Nats if you are interested. I can only come up to the races on Saturday so I will just take pictures on Saturday like I did in the 2007 nats where I met you.

      Let me know if you might be interested.

          Ken, there may be a lead already! This guy is from Jackson. It's too bad that the Jackson County Jail is a nice place for a jail.

            Ron, that is the same photo Ken posted. Terry posted it on FB as an aid in finding the trailer, not boasting he had it....

              Just spoke with Todd. Apparently the trailer was found abandoned, door locks still intact. It's on it's way to the Detroit impound yard.

                  I found out from Howard Tucker, the trailer was empty....nothing left inside all is gone. Ken, I am sorry for your loss. Hopefully we as a community can help stop the sale of these stolen items.

                      Jim, Howard T. and Thomas S. both said the same thing on FB. They also went to race in MI. I know Howard is a friend of Kens. All we can do is keep our eyes open.

                          Would help if we were able to get pictures of each boat.

                            Ken, Sorry for your loss, This sucks, I HATE THIEF'S! I'f there's pictures of the boats and other items post them, I'm on the internet a lot and will gladly keep a eye open. Just a thought, I would check the pawn shop's out in that area, it's the quickest way to unload something. I had high hopes when they spotted your trailer.. sorry again

                              Watch elite rc boats on Facebook.
                              Setup search notices on eBay for used boats, motors, escs, etc.

                              Watch for short duration sales.

                              Think about last year, someone could have planned this for a year, lots of spectators.

                                I found a really great tool called 'Craigslist Tempest'. It searches ALL of craigslist, nation wide!
