We prolly got the same "recipe" from Brett. I love the 30's. They just make the boat feel better than the 28 stock props. I have ran 84 in ideal conditions. Everyday it is about 82. We are back at home with the boat this weekend, going to go on the miss with about 6 mph current we'll see what I get out of it then. What do you think about the cones?

Get a hold of Mr Gadgets here on OSO.

He's a drive guru, and in Michigan.

second on the Kudo's on Mr Gadgets, Dick Tryce. Extremely honest, he has taught Ian a lot and has walked him through some things via phone. He has even worked on our drives while Ian waited and was able to drive them home the same day. He is in Holland MI and does this at night and on the weekends, to the best of my knowledge he only works on Mercs. I don't think he would mind me posting his numbers, just not sure which is cell and which is home 616-665-8446 or 616-403-1006. Tell him Donna and Ian sent you.

so far in the last five years it has not rained hard enough to call it off, it is just light rain or chance of rain we go. However we usually have had good weather, sometimes it has rained hard and we stay at a card stop longer, then the sun comes, MI weather, you just can't count on it. The forecast however looks pretty good for a poker run, not to hot, and so far no chance of rain. Have you done a LEOPA run before? We will be there Friday night and so should a lot of other club members, so try to stop by for a drink. I will be the blond with the little yorkie.

Say hi to Cindy for me, I have not seen her in years. Donna

Sorry for the interuption Jason, now back to your topic.
