-----Joules,,,You have a piece of history there so please take care. I say that but I guess what I mean to say is "run it like you stole it" but always remember that you are the caretaker of one of the winningest ocean racers ever to pop out of a mold,,, "Short Circuit". I live about a half mile from Chucks house and will inform him of the change of address of the boat he drove so hard!!! ,,,,,,,Bill S

The history was the attraction of "Short Circuit", I got intrigued when I saw it listed on Ebay. After some discussion with JETFIXR we worked out a deal and I purchased it sight unseen. I have to say he did an awesome job on the restoration, it's not over restored.

We'll be out on Lake Tahoe again tomorrow to test her out now she's got new prop's for the 6250' altitude, it'll probably the last nice weekend of the season, overnight temps are due to hit freezing next week.

It'll be a long winter, but I've got some classic car projects to keep me busy.
