        It did 3 or 4 360's and then hit hard and the top flew off and it sank.

              WTF? I leave you guys alone for two days and this is what happens?

              Sorry about your boat egneg. You know I'm the king of epoxy J/K

              Let us know what we can do and I have a guy that can probably get the GPS. Do you know the location it went down? Did you triangulate? Consider going to the loch, look at the loch where it when down from 3 different angles, that will help find it later.

                I know where the boat went down but I am not sure that the GPS went down in the same spot.

                    How'd the GPS fall out of the hull if the hatch was retrieved on the boat? Was it rubber banded to the seat?

                        It wasn't exactly on the boat ... more like hanging from the antenna wire.

                          No hidden agenda. I'm just asking a question. I couldn't see how it could happen in my minds eye. Now I do!

                            How does Saturday afternnon November 1st look for everyone? I'm thinking a major run, the better part of the day (more than 15 minutes Dirty) Bring our chargers(no pun intended), chairs, and run our boats trying different configurations and props (egneg), and run some more. Rather than run 1 time, take it home, tweak a bit, the run again the next weekend. We can grill on Meniscus' grill, since he always has it with him. LMK

                              Wait a second, I feel volunteered! I'd be down, but remember, I have to move my big boat from the dock it's at, down at Lake Gaston.

                              Maybe I can figure out another way...

                              Good idea though , it sounds great to me.
