Thanks for posting all the picks. Vacation got in the way of attending this year, but I have the month of October set aside so we can attend next year. Looks like we missed a great time! [emoji106]And this is how my weekend at the Enduro ended. Couldn't ask for anything better than this.

Thanks for taking pics Joe!! I got so wrapped up in the event I barely had time to take any..
Post them in here or create another, doesn't matter. I named it so that everyone who took pics, besides the pros, could post them up. Let's see them!I only took 1013 pic! :smackhead Went through and marked quite a few for processing but worked on my boat all day and didn't get around to working on them!
... Still want to see a few?? ... In this thread? or another?
Thanks for the pics Joe! I took some crappy iphone pics and they look like shit compared to this. I was patrolling my area and didn't know they shortened the course for the ski races. Would've loved to seen that
It was a pleasure to meet you and the other gentlemen that volunteered too!
You were out in front of us. We were to your right looking at the shore. Taking pictures and fishing. [emoji106]
Great meeting you guys too. Your impatience with the races starting on Saturday was hilarious!
I had to entertain myself somehow! Going insane with boredom!! Hope I didn't piss anyone off!
Towed this guy to the closest ramp. Thought he broke a prop. Not the greatest picture but take a look.

That's Todd from Oklahoma and 2nd year in a row he's broke but will be back. Great team
Really nice guys but they were pretty bummed that everything was gone below the tower housing.
Did they lose the entire lower?
I did not get that close of a look so I could not tell if it came off and the tower housing was still intact or if it sheared off at the lower end, or if it just came loose and dropped in the water, but the lower unit appeared to be somewhat missing.
Bet that motor hit the rev limiter hard when that shaft came out. :yikes
I saw a few guys running fleetmaster's with the bobs machine shop LWPU. CLE would suck for this event with the way the exhaust comes out. Probably blow prop shafts seals all day long from getting so hot running wide open all day!That sucks! If it was a Sportmaster they should be able to find one pretty easy. If it was a CLE those are hard to find and some people like them better. I hope it didn't tear up his midsection or the driveshaft socket in the Powerhead.
It tore the bolts out of the front of the mid section and ripped off the gear case. To add insult injury it had his favorite prop on it.

LOL Just saw this thread and had to chime in! First off, thanks for the tow. Without you guys the race wouldn't be possible.
We broke the mid, which means we lost the lower unit (that we had replaced from last year's carnage) and our good prop. Oh well, it's racing and we've been doing it long enough to know that shit just sometimes happens. We'll be back. Already have all the replacement parts and it will give me something to do during the winter.
