I just talked to my Dr's office. Looks like I may be having knee surgery on Dec 3rd! Best not sign up for that race! Dang!

Best of luck with that Jim. I have to get mine cut up too. I just keep puting it off as since I stopped the extreme sports its not been too much of a bother.

My Doc said mine won't get better and may lock up on me if I don't get it fixed. At least it's an outpatient procedure but needs about a month recuperation.

[tiqueman]

Yeah mine to.. Meniscus tears dont heal.

[sailr]

Yep. That's what I have....torn meniscus.

May not be running Spec offshore....

I hope that damage was not caused by a regular flip, but with your glassing skills I'm sure it'll be repaired in no time.

All the best,

Oh you wouldnt believe it. It was like nothing Id ever seen before in FE. Especially out of a cat. I was running in a straight line, at wide open throttle, when a gust of wind got under her and blew her over. It went upside down, a$$ first and rotated almost 90 degrees so it was sidways in the air. It hit the water w/ no bounce, no skip.. just a 40-0 in 0 sec stop. First time Ive flipped it.. made me a bit

Like the old adage....

It's not the fall that kills you — it's the sudden stop at the end.

Exactly. And it happend 15 feet in front of me, so I heard her bones break. She was runnin so good to. I found the prop, no bounce in glass water at all... I was ready!

[sailr]

Scott
I thought we talked about reinforcing that hatch when we were at the pond last time out?

[sailr]

Horizon probably wants a gazillion dollars for a hatch too!

[sailr]

No! Just checked. Hatch is only $17.99! Aquacraft needs to take a lesson from this pricing. Just the nose for a UL-1 is $25!
