NEW Florida Fast Electric Club

[rchippie]

Im also selling my 10ft Aluminum jon boat if anyone is interested. This is the perfect size for a retrive boat.

[sailr]

If Bill or Chris or Ray or.....? had a place to keep and way to haul the retrieve boat, the club would buy it for them. We need a backup plan for when I can't make it to a race!

Guys? What say?

I would dearly love to have that retrieve boat. Storage is the big issue.

I have a place to store it, and a pickup truck to haul it, BUT... I'm not sure I can wrestle it in and out by myself.

Hippie, do you know how much it weighs?

I can wrestle it into my van by myself. but that is in the van & not on top.

[sailr]

Chris, it shouldn't be that bad to drag into and out of a pickup bed.

[rchippie]

Im giving you guys a last chance to get my jon boat before i put it on craigs list. It will be going up sometime next week. Unless you guys are interested.

If I had a place to keep it, I would. It would be nice to have available "anytime" I wanted to go and run. Sadly I live in a 2 br apt and my back beroom is already full of planes & rc boats. I really would't want to ride around all the time with it on the roof of my van and that's about the only place I have to put it.

[rchippie]

Bill it would look great on top of your van .

[osprey21]

If the consensus is "we want it" I can store it at my place.

Hold off Hippie. Let me check the club's bank balance. Osprey, If we get it could you pick it up in your pickup and take it home?

Hippie, do the oars come with it? That would be a deal maker!

Jim Osprey is on his way up today to buy my Genisis. He should be here around 10 or 10.30 this morning. Yes the home made oars come with it .

The Jon boat is sold. Thank you Jim .

[sailr]

We now have a backup retrieve boat complete with oars. Progress for sure!

Thank's again Jim .

I picked up the Jon boat from hippie and hauled it home.

Unloaded it by myself (piece of cake) and humped it into the backyard.

I have an idea for a two wheeled dolly so I can roll it from the driveway to the backyard and vice-versa.

You needed my help to get it to your truck . Thank you for your bussiness.

[rchippie]

Jim i got the check today. Thank you.

[sailr]

I have a 2 wheel trailer moving dolly. The one with the hitch ball on it. Would that help? I could sell it to the club cheap. I never use it.

I'd take $30 for it.

Finally remembered to stop by Ackerman this morning. Happy to report it does not have the aquarium grass growing in it like Archie's had the last time we were there.

Sure would be nice if somebody up in the PP area would stop by and check on Archies sometimes this week since we're supposed to be running there Saturday.
This would be a good time to try to figure out who's planning on coming too.

[sailr]

I'll be there with the retrieve boat. Good idea about checking the weeds. I'll try to remember to call Archie's on Monday and ask if they would check it unless Hippie would like to take a ride on his bike over there?

Well dang... I was at hippies yesterday morning but didn't think to go by Archie's and check.

[tth]

Bill did you get to run the 40" mono yet?

[bill34207]

Haven't had the opportunity yet T. Maybe this Sat if it's weather fit.

[tth]

Make sure to keep me in the loop, I want to see how bad your going to SPANK em'

Did we ever find out what the weed situation was looking like? I saw a post from hippie earlier saying he would but now it's MIA.
Haven't seen a lot of response on who was going to show up yet either. If it's just going to be the two of us we might as well wait and run Ackerman.

[sailr]

I saw that from hippie too and then poof. He must have deleted it. I haven't heard from anyone else either. I agree. If it's only going to be a couple of us, let's wait for Akerman. I'd say if no one else responds by Friday noon, let's forget it.

[highndry]

I'm in for Ackerman...cant do this sat

[RCKong]

what is the date for ackerman? There are 3 of us that are going to come up.

[RayR]

Ackerman's good for me.

I think it would be Sunday the 26th?
I'm game for Ackerman anytime we can have a retrieve boat there.
