Kind of lame to drag an unfinished boat to the event to show it. Seems like a waste of time if you are that far behind on the project.

Yeah, it is a pisser that didn't get it done in time. I wanted to see it run.

The list of boats I want to watch run is getting shorter.....:banghead:

They were late getting to Boyne Thunder Street Show. I held them a spot. First the trailer brakes held them up leaving, then they got a flat tire before they got here. Sounds like the engineers need a mechanic?

I wanted to be a fan of this project, but I guess my expectations were set a bit high.

Edit: I see they have kept up with their social media, which is important.

Wait, back in July instead of getting ready to run the boat in August they were doing the event tour?
That might explain why they are not finished.
