terry is a fiddle fart!!!!

[ray schrauwen]

I'm worse.

[Terry Keeley]

That was Aeromarine. Not AM radio. Yikes.

One last question. Hopefully. What's the offshore course going to look like?

Ooops! Sorry!

We'll put an extra buoy about 70' out between 3 and the clock. You'll go 1, 2, 3, out to the offshore buoy, then back around the entrance buoy for 4 making a left turn for 4, 5, 6. Eight laps.

[T.S.Davis]

Gotcha. Just like London.

Terry & Fred
Why don't you enter the boys in the Novice class'

Kids under 17 free: "run what you brung". Huge Novice Trophy.

because if they enter the novice class they cant run anything else, thets their rules, our kids run a lot of classes, and in all fairness they are NOT novices!!!

Sorry - I did not see that.

haha Yeah, we should enter them all in open mono.

[T.S.Davis]

How'd that happen?

I was just looking at who's entered in what. I like to know who I'm racing.

I noticed a lot of FE dudes. Not counting the Paganelli girls the entries are currently 54% FE. That's kinda cool huh?

I's soo bummed I can make this event. I'm putting it on the calendar for next year for sure.

Two weeks to go, classes are filling up nicely. Last year "Team Canada" prevailed, who's it going to be this year?

[ray schrauwen]

Hey Terry. The only reason I haven't signed up so far is because, Wendy's life is very up and down. I have been expecting a $200 gst or Trillium cheque that has not come at the end of June so, I'm tight for funds. At month end I can get my IMPBA and sign up. I didn't want to leave it that long but, life's a beach even when yo aren't on one.
I'll get'r done. I have to show up, there are some goodies my MI friends are bringing for me to use in my boats.

Just starting cosmetics on the Cheetah cat repair and still need to repair the transom on my Whip 40. Trying to get that done today, etc, etc...

[Terry Keeley]

Hey Ray-Ray:

No worries my friend, life throws us all curve balls now & then, toy boats are just that, toy boats.

FWIW, I've widened & strengthened the stairs to the driver's stand to make it easier for you, now you gotta come!

[T.S.Davis]

Yeah Ray, maybe we can actually have a conversation without me flitting off like a butterfly in the wind like I do to you at our race.

Terry, looks like you're going to end up mid 30's for racers and maybe 115 boats.....ish. It's the perfect count IMO. Plenty of bodies without guys trying to run a million classes.

Our kids are talking about it like I've never seen. They're practicing with intent. Landon was despondent last evening when his setup went wonky. I forget how young they are. Fred assured him that he would have it fixed by Sunday. Then my son was insistent last night that we had to pin down the right prop for his Limited Sport because he was NOT having motor heat issues in Canada. Too funny and very cool at the same time. You'll get a kick out of these two.

We're all really looking forward to it. A trip out of town and a chance to race with our sons. Priceless.
