Hi Rik
I'm not looking for any rocks. Hope to get to met you someday and check your
new boat out.Would like to show you mine if or when I ever get it done.
Checked the picture and it looks really neat. By the way we will be changing
race tracks this comming year and will be running Susquehanna, located
between Harrisburg and York, PA. Hope you stay in the loop.

Denny
