3.5 outboards aussi

[ozbryan]

Yep can't wait to get back racing.

We have good collection of OBs in the club this year so racing should be fun!

Tim and I are planing on running the p specs too we need to get a few more of them running!

 

[Wayne Johnstone]

Will have my new Sport boat there next weekend. Looks like fun times ahead for the class.

Hey Kesso!

What's a "Ronald"?

Perfect weather here in the ACT yesterday as well. No tunnels though... Just riggers. Sounds like I should dust of my Bandit & VS1 and come to Sydney soon....

Hey Kesso!

This is a photo of "Ronald" taken by Murph at the 2010 Winter Spec

 

[ozbryan]

The boat was originally green and red so we nick named it the souths boat.

Kesso didn't like that all though I think he is a closet souths fan... So he painted the green yellow and it became the Ronald McKesso boat.

 

[kesso2118]

Souths are worth following now, maybe I'll change it back to Green & Red

 

[Greg Moss]

Maybe green, blue and white instead

 

[BradSpencer]

Planning on getting back to Penrith for atleast one club day this year. This weekend would have worked well except I'm not prepared and havn't got any of my boats ready.

Putting together a Sport Tunnel together as well, I can only imagine how much fun this class will be!

Does A mono and A Hydro normally get run on club days at Penrith?

 

[BradSpencer]

Seems like there are alot of B outboards getting put together as well, might also become a strong class.

I know of 4 being built. Excluding my new one

 

[Tim_Duggan]

Brad,

A Mono definitely (largest class at the club for the last 2 years).

A hydro is gaining popularity again and is gaining numbers at club level. Hoping to run my new one this coming weekend actually.

B o/b isn't that strong at club level for some reason

 

[BradSpencer]

Thanks Tim,

Hopefully with the new B outboards being put together, numbers at major events next year will raise to about 10.

My first ever A hydro should be on the water this coming weekend. Got the tedious task breaking in the engine before the fun can begin though.

 

[Tim_Duggan]

Time will tell on the B o/b's. It wasn't that long ago that A o/b was dead.

What makes you think we've got our boats ready................?

I still need to move the engine forward in my A Mono and replace the stuffing tube so I can hopefully run it without the 175g of additional weight on the front :blink: and I'm thinking about fitting an OS Lower Unit to the HTB to make it easier to interchange my engines. My B Outboard is still waiting on its "heart transplant" i.e. swapping the K&B Pro for the CMB RS.

Anyway Brad, whenever you feel like coming up for one of our Club Days, you are welcome to stay at my place, just let me know when you are coming

 

[ozbryan]

Going the CMB option for the ol HTB kesso??

Did you get a mount for it?

 

[kesso2118]

I got the RS and the mount more than 12 months ago, I just haven't managed to get my act together and put it on the boat :huh:

 

[ozbryan]

Sounds like you have some work to do then!

 

[jamie anderson]

sounds like you blokes are having fun and some good numbers with the outboards

i will have to come down and have a play at your club soon with my a outboard and b outboard 9i haven't had either going since winter spec 2011.

it would be good to see more b outboards
