I am working real hard on making this trip. My goal has been to go to all the NAMBA Nats and I already have missed a couple. I have got to see Legg Lake and I have got to meet in person some of the guy's that will be there. Especially Darin. I will be bringing my little hatchet so I can bury it.
Got some important questions though - I do not want to come unprepared:
1. I take it, it will be 3 heat classes? 4 Rounds, 4 boats make the class
2. 3 bouy turns or 5? 5 nice, shiny, red slalom balls.
3. Start clock starts when - 30 seconds, 60 seconds,?? 30 second FE start
4. 1/6 mile course correct? Yes-but it's not a legal FE course. No records can be applied for.
5. How far out is the course from the shore? Distance from shore to lane one? My guess...60 feet?
6. Drivers stand right? Is the stand in the center of the front straight? Absolutely. It's a shaded, concrete structure.
7. What would be your best guess as to the height of the driver stand over the course? 6.5 feet above the water.
8. What direction does the driver stand face? East West North or South? Sun glare? I think Northeast...but Brian answered in another thread
9. What is the anticipated temperature of the water at Legg Lake during June? You'll know when you're thrown in it for a class win.
10. Can anybody tell me the pH and Hardeness of the water at Legg Lake? Now that's a secret.
Now the really important questions:
1. How far is the Hotel Ramada from Legg Lake? 1.2 miles
2. How far is the Liquor store? Every corner.
3. How far is the nearest establishment where scenery can be viewed? And I don't mean geographical. Hmmm...Lohan is about 12 miles away. She's clean now, too. Also the Columbian chick from Modern Family is 14.2 miles away. I'm planning on doing the Belushi ladder trick like in Animal House on Wednesday night. Who's with me?
It won't be long and I will have myself talked into this. :) The trailer is purchased.
