Yeah it's a Titan. The DF33 was getting a little "worse for wear" so decided to replace it with a new hull. Using the same power that was (key word "was") in the DF. 1521/1Y with CC 240.

Bill, looks like you got the paint problem solved. Looking good !!

[bill34207]

Thanks Dave. It still has a little acne here n there but hid most of it with the racing stripe.
Guess I won't need to remind you that we're running Sunday this month. <g>

I'll be out there with the small mono testing again. Can't wait to see some racing this time.

Say Dave if you go to Ackerman this weekend can you bring a couple of 1520 coolers with ya ?

[HRC]

Thanks for the reminder Bill. I have to start painting the out side of my house this weekend but will slip over to Akerman for a few Sunday. Want to check out the new toys you guys have. Haven`t had time to get any boats ready to bring.

Brian, I will bring the coolers. Thanks.
Dave

check the forecast...

Looks like the forum is neglecting to send email notices again. USAirnet doesn't quite make it to Sunday yet. Saturday looks pretty breezy with the winds topping out around 16 from the south. On the good side if we have south or west winds it usually isn't that bad where we're running.

Weather update. USAirnet is showing Sunday morning starting off aroun 9 mph from the west and climbing to about 14 mph from the wnw by 2:00. http://www.usairnet.com/cgi-bin/laun...=KSRQ&state=FL
Should be runnable although my OPC tunnel won't corner very well on the east end of the course in it. I'm going to continue prepping boats and start charging batts this evening when I get in from work.

[osprey21]

NOAA says gusts as high as 21 mph.

[tiqueman]

Keeps looking worse and worse. Chances of rain are rising as well. I still plan on preparing to run. Still lso and perhaps std and or ptd

[osprey21]

I'm fairly certain I know the answer to this, but... any further word from SRQ Parks & Rec?

[bill34207]

I'm about done prepping boats now. Working on batts since the higher cell counts take a wihle.

[tiqueman]

What a bunch of.... well, no I haven't. I've called a number of times and always get the same bs answer.. "oh someone will call you". I'm thinkin we just cut the damn lock off. F em

[bill34207]

I have a better idea. Get a combination lock and cut a link out of the chain. Replace the link with the combination lock and give the club members the combination.
