    Default 2014 West Florida Model boat club, Sarasota, FL

    Hey guys, lets kick off the new year once again with a new thread as the other one is loooooong.

    I planned on having a real race day Sunday, but just got a call that I will have family in town from PA for one day next week. that day is Sunday. So I will not be attending.

    If anyone wants to grab the equipment.... pa, stereo, table, generator, speakers etc and run a race day they can. Or if you want to just run another tnt. Let me know

    oops run stuff like that by me every once in awhile I got 50 rolls in 2 days ago for the club to also be purchased at $2 each. I did the same thing last year for the club. guess we're not going to run out of tape anytime soon

    I got my NAMBA membership ordered this week and am planning to join the club sunday. Is there a fee for racing and if so how much. I want to bring enough cash with me. I am dying to try out the new props I cut.

    Sunday is looking pretty good wind wise. Temps are acceptable as well if the forecast is accurate. http://www.usairnet.com/cgi-bin/laun...=KSRQ&state=FL

    Now if we could just get some interest stirred up with who's planning to be there and what they're bringing, I could figure out which boats to prep.

    Are we racing or just TnT? Right now I don't think I have anything that I can race, I got Q Mono, Q Sport Hydro and P hydro.

    I'm game for whatever we decide to do. I'll prep my P mono and Q offshore. Might get ambitious and bring out the Cheetah twin, too. Looks like the water might be agreeable to some of the smaller boats for a change.
    Got one new one to try out too.

    Are they supposed to fill out a new application if an existing member? I can take money and write it down but if there's a new form to go with it, I don't gave a copy of it.

    Yeah... just have them bring it next time. No fees for them if theyre namba current. If not do the 10 splash fee as regular.

    Chris, Please bring the other trolling motors if you're coming, I came up with another good marine deep cycle battery. I had it at the shop and didn't remember having it! so now we have two sets of everything.
