Tape, tape, retape and then some more tape. On and off 4 times so far. Front flames on the points and down the sides will be gold over the red. The logo RIPSTA will get vinyl. (Rip **** Tear Ass Racing). New engines are being built as we speak. I look forward to seeing you out there this coming summer. Bill

Oh yeah. Had it out Labor day. Ran well. Still need to adjust a fewe things to be perfect but she is ready to go. Lenny told me to leave it there, but now he doesn't know what to do with it. lol. I can't believe it's not covered yet. Should get to it this week. Sounds like a few CI runs are in our future.

Kurt Berger up in Brick NJ is doing the motors. I'm trying real hard to get it ready by April. I think my new spot is Northeast, MD. Just an hour trailer trip and its a blast. Why burn all that fuel running all the way down there? I should be at the club on Sat. I have no hours in yet, Yikes! Lenny needs to give the bigger power boats some room on the side away from the smaller guys?

Maybe we should plead our case to him. I know Ron Jourdain would agree with that. He has the Baja.

Looks great Fireboat. Keep us posted with more pics as it progresses. I love seeing refurb pics. Re-rigging is one of the things I enjoy doing the most. I put up as many pics as I can to hopefully give some guys some ideas for their boats. Good luck with it.
