Good news and bad news

Things have been pretty rough here.
I lost my youngest brother just before the Valdosta SAWs. Shawn was just thirtyseven and left behind a wife and two children, a three year old daughter, and thirteen year old son. He was my best bud next to Casey.
By buddy David Watson passed away the Monday after the SAWs. David loved his fleet of Chris Crafts, Lobster boat, and sail boats. David left behind a wife and two grown children.
Davids funeral was last Saturday. On Sunday we recieved the call that my mother inlaw Ms. Sally had passed away. Sally left behind seven children and fifteen grand children. She was a great lady who treated me like one of her own.
Man, somebody throw us a rope!!!!!!........

On the brighter side, "good news", I finally had some time to get back to work on the hydros. The insides are painted, servos, hardware, ect are installed and they're almost ready.
Hopefully, I'll be able to post pics of the finished boats by next weekend!!

Thanks Steve Rogers (flightPower USA) and John Snider (Torkit) for the RX. packs and voltage regulators!
Thanks also to my buds John Snider and Jimmy Banks for your help soldering up the ESCs. That saved me a ton of time!!
Ned Schmidt, thanks for hooking us up with custom couplers on such a short notice. They are awesome, as usual!!!

Here are a few pics,

Doug,
it's rough when such close people are taken away too early... hang in there man,
things will get better, remember, everything cyclical and there are ups and downs in life.
Obviously you are in a down side right now... goods things WILL come!
The boats look great!!!! I wish I lived closer to see all the action and some of you "pros" doing the deed
Thanks also to the people that collaborated to the assembly.
