Well, best of luck in the race.  Will you use a 130 Genny?  That ought to be a hoot !

Art,

I've sailed south, but not as far as would have liked. In a few weeks I am going to participate in the annual Mug Race from Palataka to Jacksonville.

I was hoping Palataka Bob was going to have his boat done in time to participate, but I think he's tied up with work.

Cheers,
Ted

The projection is nice for a group, so it doubles nicely when we want a very large screen at home, camping, back yard, etc.  I enjoyed the convenience of the Aereo service in Atlanta until the SCOTUS ruled against it - this unit has a broadcast/cable tuner.  Sailing with a 50" screen is kinda nice for many.

The black bag contains the projector, cords, dc inverter power supply, and the usb and Comcast 'dongles' for Netflix, etc.  I could also keep the laptop monitor connector with this, but instead have found that the Comcast 'cast' function is handy and simpler to use for computing needs.

The BR enclosure keeps out the bright sunlight and heat, bugs, wind and rain, and dew in the am, and lets in the ventilation as wanted.  Just like the Fox, stars and all !
