since my insurance company sucks they dropped me until i took the course soi needed to take it asap. Tres helped me out tremedously by giveing me a one on one session right away. like i sais, i cant thank him enough for this.
We used my nortech which was a great benefit becasue now i know what it can do, even though i dont think i have the balls to turn it that tight, its good to know it can. by next week i shoudl know how much my insurance was dropped.

as far as cruiser classes, i didnt know that you need any training to go that slow???
jsut hire a captain, i have been planing to get my capt liscense for a while now, eventually i get the time needed (200 days in 2 years at 4 hrs per day driving with a certified captain signing off on it). When i get that ill take the coast guard course and test, then you can (legally) hire me.

Hey God,

I called on him today to make sure he got through the weekend OK. He was a good student and he is quite sharp. Just remember to be safe and plan ahead , being aware and apply everything you learned to your everyday boating. He learned all about Vees and Cats, Do and donts, and he is very aware of how to spot a potential problem.

Hey Tres,

I remember reading about your new school and how it was geared towards persons driving boats that did over 100 mph. Do you also teach how to drive a boat that does 70-80 mph?

If so, I may call on you in a couple years. Not for insurance purposes, but to learn to race a boat.
