Yep, I picked up the 80 from Daren. Super guy to get lots of help from. I think I've asked him more questions than most, since I'm basically getting started by myself. Weather permitting I might get the boat in the water over Thanksgiving and give it a spin.

Thanks Dave. I don't know of any clubs over here. I think Tri Cities may have something but not sure. I know they race the unlimited's on the Columbia so they may have some kind of club over there. My plans are to join SOA when registration time comes. I just registered with APBA and got my boat number (29R), so I'm kind of excited about that. Oh, I do have a 2 and 3 blade prop right now... the 3 blade Daren included with the 80. Are you registered with SOA?

**dave 68r** · 11-13-2005

oh ya if you joined apba then you should run with us.. i run 20 hydro and some csh still new to the sport also but had a pretty good 05 season need a little more speed now that i can kinda drive...i know you have a bunch of ?? but dont worry reg. 10 has a bunch of great guys !! dont know were else you can get help from 3 unlimited drivers. and many others who are great outboard drivers .... trust me theres no other sport were the best in it will also help ya try and beat them.. anyways welcome see ya at the first race if ya have any ? for me just ask....

Just need some seat time, or should I say kneeling time? Maybe I'll pick up a 102 midseason so I can run CSH as well. I'll see how it goes. Thanks again

too bad I cannot seem to find new drivers down here!!! Oh well, atleast there ARE new drivers entering the sport. As to my rigs being fast, well, they are not fast enough yet! Kind of cool having (3) of my past rigs up there in Reg10. I will get up there this year, especially for the Stock Divisionals at Cullaby. Now, since I was nice to you and Sean, you guys have to take it easy on me in CSH and 20SSH, as it would be real embarrassing getting beat by my previous boats........

Good luck to BOTH of you in the coming season!!!!!!

well, when you are ready, I have a 102 built by TJ, that I will sell you, but you have to win a 20SSH or two first!!!!!!!
