I've been a little sluggish getting started this season, wind being a major issue. I plan to try this coming Saturday, if the wind doesn't blow too hard. (20 to 30 mph winds are a bit much even for the Gator, and forget any of the nitro boats under those conditions.)

That sounds way too familar. We did that to our mustang too. We have the 302 a little more powerful then stock. I'll post some pix on the off topic.:D

Those Florida guys really like to rub it in! :D Michigan weather is a mess this year. About 3 weeks ago I had a couple of the boats out in some great weather. Right now it's 39, yesterday we had some sleet/hail type or stuff coming down.
BTW, at least we don't have hurricanes! :)

Yeah :eek: , The Hseason is right around the corner. Less than 30 days now!!!
I am thinking about giving RC sailing a try. Usually that would be boring to me, but in 100mph winds I bet they would really scoot!!! :D
