The lake was mandated for RC Boat use.(We are supposed to be there, as always) as the old addage goes, if it aint broke don't fix it...

    I hear ya, but, we would like to make improvements, chain the retreive boats, etc.. that cant be done w/o approval/blessing from the county. Since it appears we have been granted use thanks to Mr. Ackerman Sr. We shld pursue our rights through the appropriate channels. Jim has started the ball rolling in that regard. Lets get it right now and we wont have to be concerned in the future.
    Boats don't win races, drivers do.

            If you're coming from the Brandon area it's about 50-55 miles. I can be there anytime. Weather-wise, the earlier the better. So if it's a go, then I need to start charging some batts.

              I'm throwing in the towel myself.
              I thought by taking it easy and staying indoors today I might start feeling better. That has not been the case I actually feel worse. Looks like I'm getting the crud that's been going around.

                      Feeling a little better this morning but not going to make it to Ackerman. (no batts charged) The rain just woke me up anyways.

                            Thanks Chris and Scott. Had a great time. Weather was great till around 10 when the wind came up to herecane force
                            Need to get that tunnel motor adjusted then pull the trigger and watch it fly. Got to save up for a persuit for sure. Time to charge batteries

                              I think have some of those. Are they ~ 1" square w/ slots?
