    Debateable, Tim. First, the lack of usable water, due to idiocy like the long eared winged bat might become extint or some nonsense like that.

    Then, great venues like Longbeach, and the thunderboat races in San Diego in September, and, little to no time on the water. On one hand, we want to promote and bring in new blood to the sport. On the other, the largest venues of people available, and we can't find 15 minutes to run a J class so all the spectators can see what it all about.

    I know Ross is working on Long Beach, and I'm going to take a shot at the thunderboat races. I usuallu get what I want when I set my mind to it, and I figure there is nothing to loose by becomming a PIA to the governign powers at be.

    Aside from all the unnecessary BS putting a rig together, the water situation in Southern Cal is very frustratiing and frankly disturbing. I got an awesome lake, 20 minutes from me, Lake Hodges, but, some yarpidellic knit wit put a speed limit on it. We got the Carlsbad Lagoon, 15 minutes north, but, the drag boaters of the 60's fame kind of took that one into the tank.

    So, we can go 400 miles north, while at the same time work hard and heavy on getting some runnable water for the kids. Looks like Coperopolis in June is next....

    Default Yup, Glue It

    On the crack KT, ge tsome West, and just fill that crack, don't waste time trying to piece a new piece in, that is some very minor damage. Hell, I would race it the next heat as is were i racing it. Duct tape is a good thing.

    Dave:

    Thank you for the advice. I may have to do some more work aside from the crack. I think the transom needs to be raised, as the motor is a 1/2" low and there is no meat on the transom to raise rit anymore. Since we have a stepped bottom, I have to use a 4' straight edge across each step to adjust the prop shaft angle, and then measure 1.375 down. So, I'm thinking tape, then epoxy for the crack, and glad you backed me up on that, I thought I may need to cut the deck. The tunnel arond the driver needed alot of work anyway. It was as rough as a first pulled plug for a new boat mold usually is and I would love to make a smooth tunnel and incorporate a windshield for her.

    We have to find some close to home water so we can test more safely....I'm going to check out the lake on the Indian reservation I found and see if we can sanction a race there....
