Unfortunately we won’t make it, our boat that was supposed to take 10-12 weeks to build is going on 22 weeks and hasn’t hit the rigging line yet, disappointed to say the least...

I don't think we're gonna be dropping the boat in either. I just have WAY too much to do for this move and getting the boat done for it is too low of a priority

We will be in Havasu Friday night though. Maybe drive up to Pirates to meet some of you guys. We shall see how the wife feels about it though...

I won’t be able to get the Carrera out there either. We have like 7 vacations planned in the next 6 weeks and I’ve ran flat outta time. My wife was looking forward to it cause the 23rd is her bday, but oh well. I’ll take her to the butte instead!

Next time...

Temperatures look great for Havasu this weekend. Hope the wind stays down for the smaller boats. Safe travels everyone

I will be trailing far behind the pack in a 75 mph OG Checkmate whacker.

If any of the front-runners have a hat, cushion (or passenger) blow out on the way up to Pirates, just send me a text and I'll pick it up!

Thanks. It was bound to happen. Hopefully Merc comes through with two new/updated gear cases.

Chabones, Shagrues / Barley Brothers and Vita Dolce all have half price appetizers till 6 as well as drink specials, 3 to 6 I believe. You can fill up on several different appetizers on the cheap.

Just looking at the time frames in the "from the mold section", seems like this is the norm for every company but 1. I think I know where I would go for a new build if I could afford it.

Not the norm for most company’s, my mom and step dad built a 26 Nordic less then 2 years ago, it was done in 8 weeks. The 25 speedster was built in 6 weeks from the time the gelcoat was sprayed.

True, but the 25 Speedster sitting at the Desert Storm street fair wasnt rigged yet. Looked like it but much of it wasnt done and it went back to the factory to debut at the regatta.

The 6 week mark was when it hit the water. It was laminated April 2, running May 14th and on the water May 15th

Seems like it should have been your boat hitting the water instead of something that wasn't even sold yet???

That flag was looking tight. Is the wind playing hardball today?
