Anyone get the spectacular under water finish ??

[T.S.Davis]

That would be awesome. Epic fail............extreme satisfaction.

[tjcast]

unless you get a shot of the boat popping up out of the submerged position it would be just a shot of the start/finish line. But that was a Great finish

Yeah, it took a while for that boat to pop up. Considering the mud on the boat after it popped up (indicating a mud bottom to the pond) I can't figure out why the water is so unusually BLUE.

In all other ponds like that along the 401, they are the brown muddy water we are all too familiar with.

It must be mud only in that limited area and gravel most everywhere else to be that bright blue colour (Canadian spelling there of the American word "color" there).

[T.S.Davis]

I thought maybe there was a video of that. Oh well. I hit the bottom twice with that thing.

The color is tidy bowl blue. Weed treats I suspect.

Its a weed inhibitor called Blue Vale, Mike puts it in every year, similar to food coloring, non toxic and blocks light from getting to the weeds.
