Top O' Michigan Marathon Nationals Are Coming!

[CSR4C]

If it doesn't fit, take some dimensions so we know what to look for.
Thanks,

Darrell..the tank that is in the boat is a 5 sided thing. I will try to give you an accurate description and maybe you can figure out the volume. The wood tanks I have won't work...but a metal one I have that could be put against the transom holds slightly over one and a half gal. OK...here goes. The tank is aluminum... 2" wide and is 5 sided. At the transom it is 13" high and is 33" on the bottom. The forward end is 10" high. The top runs paralllel to the bottom for 12" and then slants down for 20" to meet the front of the tank. (All dimensions are approx.) I'm thinking that with the tank already in and the metal one that holds 1 and a half gal and the "long range" tank for the Yamato that there might just be enough. Thoughts?

Darrell...sounds good. I will be back from Canada around the 3rd. If you need the boat sooner than that I will see if I can make arrangements to leave it at Gene Greenacre's or his son's house in Alanson before I leave.

I wanna race!

Come up Thursday or Friday and I will take you down the river to show you the course.

Charlie,

If my Dad and I can talk my Mom into it I would like to come up and race. I would also like to have you show me the River on Friday.

Is there anything special I should have my Dad do to my boat. How much gas do I need?

See you at Wakefield.

J

For J last year i had 2 fins put side to side form eachother on the bottom. I dont think it much maters weather u have 2 across from eachother of one in the center if your running J. I filled up my 1 gal tank and came back with left over gas. But again this is for the J course.
