    Had the pond to myself today. Thanks Bob.

    Had a chance to run and tweak my new TFL Apparition with Aquacraft UL-1 motor, 60A ESC and a Grim Racer 42 X 55 prop. Everything was going well until I De-soldered two of the stock bullets from the ESC to Motor on the third run. So I figured I run the Genesis. First run went great with the Octura X440 prop. Then I tried an Octura M445. I did about 4 or 5 high speed passes and then..... Bye Bye Motor. All in all a very nice day. I even had a chance to use the row boat...lol

    Sorry guys. Ty and I were camping with his Boyscout Patrol. Somehow I ended up in charge. WTH. We worked on the sloth merit badge. Perfected it. We did build a 10' tall fire though.

    We should be back on track for Wed.

    Alrighty then!

    They're calling for thunder storms but I looked at two different Doppler radar images and the nearest precipitation is states away so IDK. Maybe the weather tools are using a crystal ball. We'll have to keep an eye on it.

    Plan is to run unless the sky falls on us.

    I will be there. If nothing more than to say I was. With this 5min monsoon every so often, who knows if anyone will be brave enough to run. Just remember you will have to row for a dead boat today!

    My wife wished me luck before she left this morning. I told her I needed everything I put in the water today to work.

    She says........"I'll say a prayer to the boat gods for you"

    Love that woman.

    We may get some runs in before the monsoons set in.
