Cranky old codger. Quit coming home and closing the garage immediately...you're becoming an RSM'er.

If they come out good I'll hit you up about a delivery schedule. You're way more convenient that going to see H20ski2fast.

Well I guess my questions will go answered

.

I plan on attending this event and hope it is a success.

If the GN boats are not included then maybe they will participate next year. Again, with this race it is a stretch to think that far ahead but I am optimistic.

Putting on this type of an event must be a HUGE undertaking. I told the promoter he should seriously consider backing out of the commitment and simply be a sponsor nothing more. The task has many obstacles including a tremendous time commitment. The way I see it half the people want it to fail and the other half want it to succeed. Those that want it to fail are the "see I told you so crowd." One of two things will happen. The event will be marginal and the parties to be will looking for a scapegoat or it will succeed and continue on a yearly basis. Then those in the failure camp will have zero leverage or input.

I for one would love for this to be much like Desert Storm in terms of size and draw...one can only hope!

Sidenote: The purpose of this thread was to hear thoughts and opinions from the membership rather than a topic about the promoter's personality etc... The rationale of the promoter on policy is relevant and why certain boating groups were excluded. I appreciate candid commentary on the subject. Name calling and the like is really juvenile. Facts are far more powerful than playground antics.

Lastly, anyone know how many total boats are committed??? I will ask those who know the promoter... PVHCA1, HAMMER, anyone??? I mean know for sure no guessing. I.E. Hey Kap there are 21 boats currently signed up who paid money to race...not that hard!

I look forward to attending this event and meeting a lot of people. For me attendance is finding out if the event has promise to participate. It is in the winter and more than likely the last boating event of the season for me.
