Me personally No I have not crashed A boat but have been on them when they have been involved in crashes, more on the racing side,I was not behind the wheel. I have repair many crashed boats. Spinning some out I have done just while doing research and development. Ted is Ok last I saw 2 years ago. Have not talk to him in a while. I have had plenty of close calls, enough to make you aware how easy you can be taken from life.

I just finished in GL and I have to fly out early in the AM from Tulsa. I have to leave Sunday for class in Rhode Island. Damn I know it is going to be cold. Hell It was cold enough for me today and started raining just as we finished. 50 degrees. Enough for me.:eek:

Common ground !/? Put a HydroStream over a lot of years ago, then had a launch-trip-stuff it event with the 32 Velocity and a few other little incidents with that one over the years. I've always figured that a smart man learns from the mistake, then works to not repeat it. Amazing how much you can learn in those nano-seconds. I know I learned a bunch, and have never forgotten the lessons. Does change your outlook on things.

Will do, I will measure the base, I only have one and it's yours. DKerns wants the other. As you can see they are painted in very nice condition.
