Finally calling it quits

[Bob Kensill]

SOLDAbout a year ago I posted here that I was going to retire from r/c boat racing. I am entered in the World Tunnel Championships, and that will be my last race. Parkinson's Disease is making it almost impossible to hold the transmitter and do many things that I used to enjoy. I am selling all my racing equipment but intend to continue to help at races as well as build boats. I am going to try to make Equalizer pipes again. I do not intend to give away my stuff, but will offer it at a fair price. I would like to see it go to people who will race it, not hoarders. I will try to start listing it on here, but feel free to ask for something if you don't see it on here right away. I don't really have everything priced, but will consider offers, and possibly trades. Please don't insult me with low-ball offers. Some of the things for sale will include:

1.HTB290 w/ Novarossi 35plus21. Salisbury carbon fiber pipe, LaFleur T101 prop, Hitec servos and CMB mixture valve. Boat is complete less Tx,Rx and batteries. This boat won 2010 IMPBA National champion, US1 and Excellence of Performance. It also won 2011 IMPBA National Champion. $550.00 plus shipping(will include extras)Will separate

2. HTB260 w/ Hitec servos and CMDI mixture control. Boat has paint job by Rusty $175.00 plus shipping (will throw in K&B 7.5 lower as I ran)

Bob,

This is very sad news. You will be missed on the water, but I am glad you are going to stay involved and visible at races as your knowledge and assistance will be welcomed by many, including me. I look forward to seeing you and Karen at the WTC. If I can help you in any way, please let me know.
