|

Most of you have probably heard that we lost a boat at the races this past weekend, thankfully the driver and navigator got out and are ok. The chancesof finding the boat are pretty slim but we'll keep looking. The tough part here is that at twenty years old every dollar they had was in that boat, we need to keep the young guys going.
So here's the plan, I have a provost hull that needs steering , pump, seats etc... The roll bar , gas tanks are there. I figure we should be able to clean up a couple of garages and help these guys get back to what they love.anyone on board

I would like to thank everyone that is coming together to give the "kwitchabichen" race team a hand I cant thank you guys enough for your support . We are both happy to be alive and thanks to the support boats that got us out of the water. If we don't have a boat we will still be in white court to help out thanks again guys,

Great idea Mayo....the boat needs to haul ass in the end.(the way he drives) He was quick in GP and was doing great in PR. So fun to watch all classes with some tight racing. I really don't have any spare parts, but if we start a pay pal acct, I'll be the first to put in! |

You're the man Darcy! Unbelievable idea! Almost brings a tear to my eye seeing all these parts and pieces donated within a few short hours. I'm with Arthur on the pay pal account.
Unless of course Mac, you want to put a roll bar in my Four Winns boat and race it. After all I did have an aluminum keel installed. _________________ There's no replacement for displacement!!!!! |

This is great guys as a young fella i was building up a Race Boat.
Then we had a huge earth quake here in Christchurch NZ and a 2 tonne reel of wire rope fell down and landed in the Boat crushing the roll cage and dash.
So all my hard earned cash down the drain.So good on everyone for helping these lads i know how much it would mean to them. _________________ foot flat 2 da floor |

Ive got headers drive line adapter phase and bypass cooling and some other stuff! If the wing boat doesn't show up here soon I'll donate one of my tunnels for them to use in whitecourt so they can at least Finnish out the season on a happy note! trust me I know what it's like to lose a boat and definitely want to keep new blood around the sport! _________________ When in doubt hammer down! |
