 Posted: Thu Sep 06, 2007 8:37 am Post subject: John D's 21' X Sport Open bow |
 |
|
John is right on the lower Red Deer River and has decided to come over to the dark side! He sold off his 'glass lake boat (can I have a collective three cheers from everyone?) and has purchased a 21 Sport open bow. I'm sure it will be a big change but I also know he won't regret it one bit. I'm sure you will get far more use from this than your Campion
Dave: he can't be far from you and I know he will want some river pointers, just keep your distance and lets everyone turn to the left when in close quarters haha (If you see Dave on the river this season John you will understand this, Dave's boat has some new "ventilation" after a recent incident)
Stay tuned for pictures of the build, the boat was started this week.

Been out of the office sick but I do have a few shots of your boat John. They are working faster than the photographer obviously!
Cheers

Wish I could Karey, I was sick the week a majority of the work was done and before I knew it the boat was in Cleanup LOL
The boys really jumped on this boat and it rocketed through the fab shop in a hurry but its now at a bit of a bottleneck in the paintbooth. It will still be a very fast delivery but as usual unless every dept gets the boat at just the right time there are sometimes days here and there where it must sit awaiting a "slot".
John should be seeing this boat mid Oct which is right in line with 6 weeks delivery, thats on the faster end of the scale for us and typical of fabrication at this time of year.
Top up, heater going full bore we'll still be able to give him some river running lessons before the season is out.
Cheers
