Getting it to Zach this week would probably work out...possibly Thursday evening.

Don't know if he's reading this thread, HW can you get him my phone # or get him to reply here?

I'll see Zach in Ohio this weekend and then Monday I go back to Decatur, leaving Wednesday afternoon to go home.

You could swap Phats for Duane but yeah that seems like the plan.

If you did get it to Phats this week (with or without Duane) I could actually get it this weekend.

The latest plan was:

C-bass to Phats (sometime this week?)
Phats to HW (on the 29th)
HW to possibly Skutsch or directly to Flyweed

Hey Guys (Hollywood, Duane in Indy) and the rest

Are you guys still all "ON BOARD" for us to be able to get this tower from Indiana over to Wisconsin??

C-Bass and I have been discussing back and forth via PM's. Just wanted to see if you guys are still available to make this happen???

Thanks again for all of your help and efforts!

Ahh....I feel for you...man I hate selling and moving. I've done it twice, and I think that's enough! LOL

Anyway, would the bimini break down, into a "shippable" package? I'd like to get the full package if at all possible.

If we just do the tower and not bimini shoot me a message with the price.

Yep. Still here. Haven't been checking in a lot lately...busy at work and getting ready to sell the house.

I didn't get down to the lake so I don't have the bimini, it would just be the tower.

C-Bass..........if you'd want, we can still do this, and have you send me everything, and than we can have that bracket made up, and just have you mail it to me? I'm flexible. I am not going to put the tower on my boat until later in September anyway, once I bring it home from the lake. So it'll just be sitting here in my garage.

Thoughts??

Dan,

I've yet to get any response out of Air-Boom on the aluminum bracket and if I call a machine shop they certainly won't be able to get it to me that quick. At this point I don't think it's feasible to get this thing moved next week. Unless you have any suggestions I would say we call off the relay team to get this thing up to you and if you still want it, try at a later date.

C-bass...if you can come up with one, or even make one that looks the same, I am ALL for that. Not a big deal to me. As long at it works, is safe and looks like the original.

HW--Yeah I know what you mean transporting an FCT2 main hoop. I'm glad you brought mine from Indiana to northern Illinois. It was a big piece to take to and from the powder coater and that's only 15 miles from my house. I'm glad it's on the boat. Still very thankful fo that gesture.

I will check, I'm sure they have the drawings for it and could make/source a new one. Might actually be cheaper to just have a machine show make one, it's very simple.

Well I was getting together all the pieces of the tower and discovered that one of the aluminum brackets that connects the lower/upper pieces is missing. I hauled this thing home from the lake on the trailer last year and I'm hoping it didn't rattle loose and fall on the road (it would've been loosened when I took down the tower). I'll continue looking for it, but I doubt Dan wants a tower with a missing bracket. I could have a machine shop make a new one easy enough, but that will take more time.

skutsch....yeah that would be great...if we could get it over here to the West side of the state, from the east. Otherwise, I can figure something out with HW, I am sure. :)

I am headed to Dubuque this weekend. Could make another trip later this month or early Sept. If I do, might save you a trip to this side of the state. Let's see when HW gets back. BTW, kev you can "test fit" it on any of a number of hulls in your backyard!!!

No problem. I'll grab the bimini over the 19th when I'm back down at the lake. Then try to coordinate with Zach the following week (22-26th)

Craig, any chance you can get the stuff to Zach on the east side of Indy?


That wouldn't be a problem. It would take me at least until the 22nd of this month to get the bimini though. Don't know when you're planning on being down in Indiana.

I'm torn.
To aid in that desecration either warrants a lot more than a few beers or a kick in the ass. I'm on the fence with that decision right now....LOL.
When people run down to the lake to see what's making that noise, you've succeeded.

Am I really helping put an aftermarket tower on a 1993 Ski Nautique?

BTW I drink Colorado beers. Lots of them.
