Avoid the holiday shopping come and run model boats at one of the best facilities in the country.



Final pour of our new Pit and launch area. The city of Huntsville is really on the ball.

The city of Huntsville got our retrieve boat slip dug out for our new site! Plus here is a picture of our new site as viewed from our old site. It's all coming together nicely.

Are you building a new drivers stand or moving the existing one across the pond?

Look forward to the initial run there.

The city will eventually build us a NEW drivers stand in compliance with ADA requirements middle of next year. In the mean time for our records trials they will loans us the city's portable stage that is self contained with roof and generator.

Thanks everyone. Everyone that is here today seems to really like the new site. Plus I got a compliment on the new way I set the sensors to be mounted. The guys doing the setup said they had both ends set and ready in 4 minutes.

Bill,

Was it just a test and tune day today?

I saw the weather had just a little too much wind today?

Tomorrow should be ideal in the morning and most of the day.

I would bet there will be some new records tomorrow?

Have Fun,

Mark Sholund

Bummer about the rain this morning, looks like the breeze is settled down.

You might get some windows today, keep the equipment dry!
