    Only have one boat to build!!!!!!! don't know if the q mono is gonna make it???? The way I want to build it will take too much time, I might just slap it together and see how it goes!!!!! All other boats are pretty much ready, a motor here a speedo there but nothin to write home about. P-lim cat should be interesting, I have a full size sprintcat .40 done up SUPER DUPER lightweight. We'll see how she runs. Brand new Q cat, tryin sumthin a lil different, Breakin out the p spec rigger for the first time in some 4 years???

    I guess I better start prepping the boats for the trip to the MI instead of trolling the the for sale section.

    I hope somebody has some boats that are race worthy. Clearly it will be very few of us. Ty's boats are pretty solid but I'm still fiddling with my junk...............wait.......that reads wrong.................boats. Still messing with my boats.

    Burned the leads off my offshore boat Saturday. Cuz I'm dumb. Tyler ran a whole straight away less a sponson on the JAE. He left it in the left side apex and kept going. Then I'm doing a re-think on one of Kevin's Skaters. 4 more props to balance. It;s not helping at all that Castle has left me high and dry since April. Ahhhhhhhh

    I just have to put the magic smoke back in the hulls and load in the trailer. Since Q hydro did not make it I am forced to put Q power into my P hydro and warn everyone for the schooling that is coming.

    Does anyone know who dropped a camper at the lodge already? I didn't think anyone would be coming in over a week early.

    There will be no luxury glamping for us, we will have a couple of tents, although this years will be a little larger than last years. Still nothing fancy.....just a bit more space to accommodate my boy....

    Yes - they will be posted after the event, or each evening after the days racing.

    I'll try to get someone who has his or her hands free to get some videos of some heats on my phone and I'll post them to youtube after racing.

    It would be great to see some good racing action not just for us other racers but also would be great for the new guy getting the chance to see some of the best racers in the world .

    Ray it’s a shame you are not racing with us. I don’t think we have ever faced off in Q hydro, but it would be a hell of a race. I have several Q hydro’s just not enough friends that race the class.
