Guys,
Mike Laing here from Ohio. I have been in this hobby for a few years now. Joined a club, became president, and with the help of the other Performance Model Boat Clubs great members, hosted the 2007 International Regatta. Looking to get into a new class, I turned to Mark Hopper at HTB boats to build me a winner. After the hull was built, he told me about Rusty Nesbitt from H&R and had it shipped there. Talking with Rusty on the phone and by e-mail, I discussed with him what I wanted the theme to be a tribute to the 343 fallen fellow firefighters from 9-11-01. I think he did a fantastic job, and I'll tell you one thing. I've meet a lot of great people in this sport, and Rusty is one who has to rank with the special people on top of the list. What a caring and easy person to work with and the quality of his work is just fantastic.
For myself and the thousands of other Firefighters.......WE THANK YOU.
