    This is the premiere FE boat race of the year in my opinion, the race site is the best, the Elks are the bomb, the competition is always fierce and the people are my favorite people i've met in a 25+ year RC racing career. I will make this race every year as long as they hold it. Oh and BTW I am gunning for that cup this year, I have a loaded team!!!! and yes we will be "loaded". OH and another question, does REgina have to be a NAMBA member to take part in the 9;30 pm festivities!!!!

          Does anyone know of any vacation / short term rental properties near the lake or vacinty.
          The Pags and I are thinking this might be a better solution than a hotel. We are open
          to any suggestions or realtor contacts.
          Thanks,

            I've been thinking about a "20" man race for years (we used to do this at the end of some big car events) 20 guys (or how ever many want to run) and race for lets say 10 laps, anything goes rigger, cat, mono sport hydro, but maybe keep it to P power or under. If we advertise this you might want to bring an older boat that u don't really use and don't care if it gets banged around, and we get a bunch of guys this could be a blast???? last race of the event sunday afternoon what do some guys think???

                keep in mind that there's a good chance that your boat might get wrecked so don't plan to run anything you are fond of!!!! maybe a lemans style start??? no racing rules apply except for cut buoys.

                    House Rental next to the lodge would be cool. Could drink and walk home.

                      A cottage would be cool, doubt there is an accessible one close by. There was this one house I saw on the way from the highway to the lodge that has a very elaborate aluminum ramp system to enter a house. Maybe we'll stop there on the way and inquire... still too far though...
                      Get enough in me and I'll be a play toy for you guys, no need for 2 part foam, pool noodles and tie wraps will do.

                        We could just tie a rope to Ray and make sure we drag him back to shore before he downs. Can you imagine the accident report? The agent asking "what's a jato rocket?"

                        I'll see if I can dig anything up. Brian might know somebody who knows somebody.

                            Instead flotation we add weight.........

                            We're having way to much fun at Rays expense. Sorry Ray. Hope you know we're just goof'n.

                            Would you be willing to hold a hook on the retrieve? Maybe thrash about a bit? Apparently the Pike are out of control in this lake now. They're talking about some sort of harvest plan.

                              I LOVE IT GUYS, oops cap locks... Pike are scary but, if it were muskies, might as well be sharks or pirrahna.... No, don't start breeding them in your house now either....

                              You know a big enough Muskie will go for small dear drinking by waterside, so I've heard.

                                I'm surprised a pike didn't snag that baby deer we had swim across turns 1 and 2.
                                I got stabbed by a catfish when we were in the water battling weeds.
