Hey Bob, will be retiring my baja in a few months. I joined the Nor-Tech family today. I pulled the trigger on a new 3900V! Should be finished in about 3 months.

Bob,

Give up the Put-in-Bay dates so we can plan.

Wow, Congratulations Mike that is great. I knew you were considering that but did not know you were this close to comitting to it. What are you powering it with - 525's ? They are sharp looking boats. I know of a couple in the area. Do you remember Ron and Pam bringing theirs down from Sarasota for the Marco Island fun run ? Keep us posted on that. :D

Arriving early afternoon on Thurs. Aug 17th and leaving by noon on Sunday the 20th. Be nice if you can come up and meet us. Have yet to meet Gerry and have heard lots about him. Do you have the Dragon up there or is it still on the FL east coast? :D

Bob,

Dragon is in FL on the East Coast.
There is a very good chance that I will be in Ohio that week. Hopefully I can get LEOPAJM to run the Sabre up on Sat. I have your cell #.

Great choice for power. Ron Potter builds a strong motor that will outlast the 525's. EFI is definately the way to go. :D

Bob, I am ready for some boats... last time I was in Canada was Montreal in '78, and there was no boating involved. :rolleyes:
Cant find my passport-- will they let me in with a drivers license and an OSO tshirt or should I bring the birth certificate? :D
