Roger Carr will be inspecting and I will be assisting him. We have a special measuring stick that will ensure all outboards and outdrives will be measured the same. Thank you Chad Hill! We have a new scale and will have hoist equipment on sight, so if your boat requires it to be a certain weight, plan on having it weighed. We expect you to provide your own lifting straps but I will have a set if you can't come up with your own. I have offered to weigh boats and so far only one has come forward. If you have not weighed in by Friday at close of registration, we may not get to you and you may be demoted to the next division--this is conerning outboards many of whom think late is ok! I will be setting the course Saturday morning and still haven't heard from any volunteers! Surely some of you guys who have been making all the noise can step up and help an old man. First class is scheduled to go off at 10:00--don't forget we are on Arizona time!!!No excuses!!!We will be measuring carbs (thanks Lee Buchanon for providing the Gage) on the Merc 150's in Div. I as well as fuel samples as compared to the "pump" gas in the Parker Oil fuel truck. Remember guys this is a race for FUN. Nothing would spoil the show quicker than some one purposely cheating! Nuff said!:) Rod PS if you have a boat that doesn't seem to fit the rules, call me first and I guarantee you that we will find a Division for you to run in! Just be honest with me so that I can help you in a manner fair to the rest of the competition!
