2014 Campbell Regatta

Just a heads up that the annual Campbell Regatta is coming together and all the details can be found over on the Campbell Owners website (campbellowners.com).
Just made room reservations at the Nautical and saved 15% by booking early.

Should be a great time. Overall plan calls for a get together Friday night with a trip up to Pirates on Saturday (which usually is the same weekend as the river rocket event, even more reason to clear the schedule). Saturday night is usually pizza in the cove or in the channel and Sunday is a run to the Springs for "brunch" followed by an unofficial raft up in or near Sand Point. Lots of tall tales to be shared of the Campbell legend and lots of great people to chill with.

Who's all going ???

Movie ya gonna make it ???

well, my winter project, the only thing my boat needs to be perfect has now stopped me from going to the regatta , the one weekend this summer I've been really looking forward too...My boat needs the new aluminum tanks... doing this job will just take too long , I could have done a bandaid to it for $1200.. and got me out to there, but still would have had to do to big $$ over the winter .. so as mad and as sad it makes me , i can't go now...Im still in shock.... the fricken boat is perfect ugggggggg!!!!!!!!!
except for the tanks, having put so much love sweat and money in to her , i can't half ass it this far into the game... and I don't want to do any damage to my engine ...I had the engine opened up and sonic cleaned like new again , thank god no damage done to it... so now I wait a fricken year to see all of you and your amazing boats..
Thanks Rocky

My apologies. My 20r broke coming out of the channel today. Does anyone have Franks the mechanic phone number? Thanks.

I am new to this sight, but we met you in Havasu when we brought you your decals. Nice video of the regatta, we are just learning to use our gopro. Sorry we missed the regatta, maybe we can make it next year.

thanks for the decals, which boat is yours ??? post up some pics of that baby !!!

I met this guy at the Nautical Inn, super nice guy, original owner (super nice boat) just before the regatta got going. He said he will be back for the Spring Round Up !!!

Here are some pictures.

Ok now your killin me, whats hiding under the big motor box ??????cool

BBC with a little B&M blower.

lol thats awesome !!!!

When new it was a twin turbo. Still has the boost gage on the dash, soon to be gone as soon as I can pick out a new set of nice looking red background lighting.

check out livorsi gauges. Mine came with red back lighting and I am not sure I ordered that way but it worked out perfect.

Nice that's what I am looking for, Thanks for your help and time , now if they make them with stainless bezels we will be in business. Time to make some calls.

that was the cool part with them, you can pretty much custom order your gauges anyway you want them and I think they will (for an undisclosed fee) even make custom gauge faces for you !!! I wanted new gauges that looked old. I could not find a full set of SW stage 3 gauges so I went with SS and black and white... I love them and they were a breeze to install and have worked great so far.

Oh man I may have to borrow that from you, that is the exact style I am looking for! Funny thing is some of the gages I have are stage III, but not all. Those look great.

I your speedometer a gps type?

Who did you order your gages from? All of your help is greatly appreciated, if you want/need a couple more decals let me know(on the house)Bob

I am pretty sure I ordered the gauges through CP marine, check with Teauge Marine too (i used the Livorsi web site to figure out what I wanted!!!). I seriously considered the GPS speedo but in the end I just went with a matching tach in an attempt to not clutter up the dash and sort of keep it ol skool looking. I wanted to use stage 3 gauges bc that is what came with most of them, but I could not find a complete set that looked nice, so I just scrapped that idea.
