I am glad to see the positive feed back for Tim. And a bunch of guys have already called me to say that if needed they would contribute a bit extra. Lets see how it goes over the weekend, but things are looking good for Tim and the chopper

Hey Mike. Bringing my 31 Sutphen. Never used the Spectre this year. At this point I'm just leaving it winterized.

I'm in on the helicopter. Side note to all, there is a municipal launch ramp at haverstraw park approx 2 or so miles away. It's a 10$ launch fee. I want to launch with everyone and see all the boats(that's half the fun) but between my docking skills and blower surge I may go the safer and less crowded route. Just a thought for anyone. I have to make sure it's still open to launch this late (unless somebody knows off hand)

That ramp is open till November sometime. Not sure on depths for bigger boats. I have launched my 25' there no problem. Pretty sure there is no dock space to tie up though

Sounds like Johnathan will have plenty of hands to help dock. I am making the trip up to VA again (not with my boat) HyFive (Neil) has been kind enough to let me ride with him. I will be glad to help dock, do want to still get pictures when people launch but I am sure you won't have any issues with hands to help.

We are in for pictures!

As long as testing goes well next week, The Worlds Fastest Vee Bottom will be there!!

I'm in for the heli and pics!

in for the helicopter and pics , we are going to wait at the poughkeepsie bridge like last year for everybody to come up .

I'm in for helicopter and pics, if you come up short on money I'll kick in extra . It's well worth having Tim shoot from a chopper. Hey Tim can I twist your arm again for some video coverage? :)
