    Hudson River Fun Run 2010

    well i do not think i will be making it this upcoming weekend. took the boat out today and i am pretty sure i wasted the Bravo 1 Outdrive. could not get it on the trailer since it was way to windy and would have been a hard time towing it into the ramp. so for now i have it tied up in a slip.
