      OK, you talked me into it. I signed up this morning. Basically bringing three boats, one of which has actually been run before (and for a class that may not even make the numbers), and the others brand new, AND, all will hopefully pack into a Golf Bag (which is why I'm skipping the Sport Hydro stuff.).

      This should be "fun"...

      CLASS
      Day 1 SPEC Hydro
      Day 1 SPEC Offshore
      Day 1 SPEC Tunnel
      Day 2 P-Hydro
      Day 2 SPEC Mono
      Day 3 P-Mono

      Friday Night Meet and greet Fish Fry (Ummm... But I don't like Fish... )

      We'll see how my spring goes. Who knows, maybe I'll get a chance to put together my Q-Hydro and then my entry list may change a bit. :)

      Just have so solidify flights and lodging now.

        Any of you guys who travel regularly and use the hard golf cases to pack things, if you have any links or recommendations on these bags, I'm all ears. :)

                Hi Darin try the Datrek hard case golf travel cases.
                They are fairly inexpensive and a used case is fine,
                I bought both mine on Ebay.

                Try this link for starters and get the biggest that you can find:


                I can certainly loan you one or both of mine if you like,
                just not sure if the shipping costs would make sense, but
                let me know if you want to go that direction.

                      You could put yourself and a few boats in there, save on airfare.

                        20" wide . . . you can fit a P class sport hydro in there, just saying!

                        they have a "$1,500 club guarantee", I wonder what kind of a boat guarantee they have!

                          I did a Bauer hockey equipment bag for my Vegas trip last fall. Made a nice cardboard box inner liner. It was about 34" x 24 x24. Fit my LSH/Psport stealth, P limited cat and 31"mono along with clothes and shoes to protect the boats. Worked out great, and cost less than $25 at Play it Again sports...

                              Ummm, how can I add a class or switch something up? I've got a new spec kitty.

                              Whatever, supposed to be the the cats azz.
