Kelly one of the 35's didn't make the trip due to a change with there work schedule. The other 35 had a distributor problem Saturday at start up time. We left it at the dock and put everyone in our 42.(no man, woman or cooler left behind)...we had a great day. Maybe we all can get together at LOTO or Key West.

Mark it was good to see you and Nancy along with Brian and Sara....Hope to see you guys at LOTO. Sorry about not making it to the bar for shots Saturday night, we were in the boat headed back to the dock at 7:00 am Sunday morning.......loaded up and travelling at 9:00 am....got home about 10 hours later, it was a long day but worth it.

Drug the 35' 630 miles one way for one motor not to start. We put in Friday and could not get one motor to start, changed modules at the ramp, started and ran 6 or 7 miles up the river brought it back and tied it up not thinking another thing about it. Saturday morning roles around and same motor will not start, put another module in and still will not start. Got it back home and plugged a diode into one of the injectors and put a timing light on it and no spark or injector pulse. Bad pick up coil. 2 new complete distributors order this morning. Will be back and running for the weekend at Knoxville Poker Run.

I wound up riding with RBH and having a great time.

Can not tell you who was the fastest as bascally the group cruised at about 105. It was more like a joy ride rather than a race.

That is tough luck for sure. No warning on most ignition failures, they just happen.

Glad a good time was had anyway. Those of you that put the time and effort in to be there deserve recognition. Trips like that take energy, funds, and time. 105 seems like a comfortable cruise pace, given that group of boats.
