Works for me
. Question here, when you lose in Axas boat who becomes the Loser of Record? The Driver? Or the boat Owner? Reason I ask is that my preparations have been on the basis of Owner/Driver being one and the same. At this late date some of the critical details of the preparatory work could not be properly modified. We need a ruling from the head of the sanctioning body.

I'll elect myself as the Head of the Sanctioning Body:
The big race is only official if Axa is piloting Chillin the Most.
This has gone on far too long to throw in a monkey wrench now. This event represents the honor of the Flockers and the Beakers and can only be official with the owners driving.
Having said that,,,,,,,,,,, If you know where the keys are Mike,,,,,,,,, we could do some final tweaking runs for Axa.

Word of caution at the River Edge launch................ Walk the boat off and down to the end of the dock.................. Do Not back off the trailer, there is a mud berm pushed up from years of use just to the stern of where you would stop, you can hit bottom. Water is still high up there, but not worth taking the chance. And be carefull of 5PMs rock, it can mess up your trailer.

Thanks for the caution. I do walk mine off whenever possible. Jeff put his in there and he's there now to help me out. That is if I can get up the ambition to haul up there in this pouring rain. Raining up your way today?

The Mayor has spoken
, I will abide by his AM sober decision.Flockers Honor? After all the clandestine operations and shared secrets earlier in the season I question there is an honorable bone amoungst the lot of you. Excepting my insider buddy
.There's an idea, we could do a Steve Stepp dial in on those props of his. Anyone have a die grinder and a ball peen hammer?
I've learned some prop tricks from BBlades that we could try.

Not raining here, very foggy earlier but now just gray and overcast. Roads are dry as we speak. Samantha is pimping for the day, then I'll clean up my act here soon and we plan to be in the bay by mid morning, unless I allow my dumb a$$ to get side tracked by stopping at my office, I have a tendenacy to do that.
