I woulnd't like an arrangement where you had to launch the boat to get to the ski. You know what you will use more..

I don't know how to link it but if you pull up the google map you can clearly see a nice cruiser wake running right up the east side of the peninsula.. :woot:

FYI for racing it must be DOT/snell approved and have a chin guard.

Cool. Can someone scout out a hotel? That looks a bit far from sun suites.. #45 on the map http://lanier.sam.usace.army.mil/ParkRecreationMap.htm

the sad thing is I used to do that stuff and think it was cool.. (like probably most of us who started out on couches..)

anyone try the MES brand that riva sells? (for the price they better be much better than other aftermarkets..)

Another issue you may have - Ive seen where people save a link to the desktop, then some upload software isn't smart enough to follow the link so you get an error that the ".lnk" file type isn't supported. (or worse you upload/email a useless link to your c: drive..) If you aren't sure about...

what file type are they?

epoxy is better for the fiberglass part too.

I think you'll be ok if you put down a layer or two of epoxy/cloth around the entire edge. Sand real good of course. (sand/grind all the way though whatever gel coat or paint is on the hull when you really need a bond)

I've got 5 or 6 years on my jet works -- never used any special charger with it either. Just hit it with the trickle charger 2-3 times over the winter.

Sometimes I really miss rec.sport. NO moderation, anything goes.

so-called priority mail is not much better. No tracking and (get this) when they loose priority mail you need to wait 30 days before they will even take a report on it.

Just on a quick look there is stuff under $1k for RC airplanes. (now that 125 is making everything look pricy!) . I have no clue about quality range etc, or how hard to waterproof - thats why I asked if anyone considered it.

Ok for the dense I meant a radio transmitter arrangement so that you could record on high quality equipment that stays on the beach instead of stuffing your video at low res on a memory card.

has anybody looked into wireless set ups?

Not true, I've seen ice shatter an open glass bowl (with nice sloped sides) I figure the surface freezes first and locks the rest in. Now things like a water box probably flex enough to be OK, but personally I flush the whole works with antifreeze.

good for security if you do lots of traveling I suppose.

Why make a seperate panel rather than just laying glass in the tray?

screws should have worked better than rivets (I hate pop rivets). Best to use self tapping / sheet metal screws and drill pilot holes for them. I use somewhat larger screws with big old hex heads and remove them after the epoxy sets. My guess no or too-small pilot holes was your trouble more so...
