Just takes longer to get to the point. Eh? That's the best part. All the sidetracks.

I remember when that boat and trailer being parked the hotel-marina in Brick Twp right at the route 70 bridge over the Manasquan River, what I rember was I was 10 or 11 years old and I asked my father why didn't the trailer have a winch and a cable for the bow'e eye, and why did not the boat just fall off of the trailer, keep in mind I was just a young kid. But I had this overwhelming concern for the well being of such a cool boat, that it needed to properly secured while in transit. And that boat always ran well.....

You'll get nothing and like it!
Okay, you can have a sausage roll and some cold rainy weather.
That hot Florida sun is only a few days away.
I'll say hi to your parents for you. Don't worry we'll take plenty of pictures of all of the fun!!!

Hm, it's funny you mention the weather, it's absolutely chucking it down and freezing cold to go with..........deep joy! I'm off for a cuppa PG Tips (sausage rolls are so last year) to ponder on where it all went wrong!

I'll have to admit, the sausage rolls are pretty damn good.
I like the HP ones.

Thanks again for the swag. Do they have the trophy too?
Did they bring the Magnum Tornado scrapbook?

Well.. All that stuff being said about the old designs and history of the hulls, I can't wait to see some of these ole' farts next weekend. (at OFF) Some I now, some I have met, some I yet to meet. But just for the record, I just love my Avanti hull. It does need a little bow lift, due that that screw ball JCS deck, but this lady will go through anything. (I will dig up the pix with Charlie and me in "his" ole' Banana hull that became Avanti in a bit)
