Tom-
Do you have any more info on the run? Amanda and I are interested.

Thanks!

Velocity Tom

Man you would have a blast with your motion up there. There is allways a bunch of ob cats. Look on boat freaks or call me.

Do you need to be up there all day Friday or can you come in Late Friday night? I can't get off work friday......... Too much stuff to do.

Velocity Tom

Ya no big deal Fri. is a lunch run. The ramp is close and easy.
The run after the toy drop is not part of the deal that Russ puts on. But we allways get a groop together with Bill Pyburn sr.and run up to the out back crab shack about a 30-35 mile run each way.

I will have to try and make it up there. Are you going on the fun run this weekend?

Velocity Tom

No I have a bunch from North Carolina showing up for turkey day. I think its going to be a little cold Sat. I live just acros the harbor from Harpoons.
