Well that's a revelation. Your partner Axa told me that there was $50K worth of prize money on the table down in Biloxi. With $50K and only 22 boats seems like you guys should all be getting rich at this. But then what the chit do I know.

If your doing it for the money its considered a job.Were in it for the fun and excitement.OK the bikinis too!

Who splashed this weekend?

Was it Ragged who claimed He'd be in first?

Was it 5PM who has the boat out of storage and cleaned?

Did Rip get the early spring fever and dunk it?

Or was it the diehard Thirdbird who is spontaneous and will launch in 32* weather?

Let it begin boys....As for me, well, #2 is progressing nicely and when I get back from vacation...Let the rigging and testing begin!

Dave

BTW: My bets are on Thirdbird. Ragged has at least 10 more coats of wax to apply first!

Yup the ThirdBird was in yesterday. Ran like a top. Sandy Pond and the Big Lake were perfect. Hardly a ripple. Didn't even need jackets.

Pachanga Mike was with me and our two daughters. We'll have the photo-evidence up soon.:cool-smiley-011:

On Pachange Mike's camera.

P-Mike is doing some touch-up work on his boat. No Harly unless someone drops his asking price in his lap. Then, he can go roast on the asphalt while we chill on the water.
