Thanks for the well wishes Chris. We plan on going out next week to do some testing for the Cinci race. We'll be trying out the murk setup just for that deep green Ohio River freshwater.
I don't guess many of these saltwater guys know much about setting up for the Ohio river green...there's a trick to it that we've learned over the years. If you guys haven't tried serrated edge props....you don't know what your missing. Call me, I've got a couple of spares I might let you use for the races.

Corey,
The water is not shallow anywhere near the course. Right now the water is low for this time of year. Problems arise when the river is really high like it was around 7 years ago. We chose this date because the river is always in good condition this weekend. Debris is not an issue that time of year either, but if it is the Coast Gaurd here had agreed to set up a barrier to catch it durring the race. They really have bent over backwards to make this race happen, as has the Village of New Richmond.

Chris - Thanks for the time on the phone yesterday and taking care of the hotel. The Admiral is "good to go" for the Kilo run on Saturday. Hopefully, the hangover won't be too bad from Friday night....
