BASSPLAYR,
I thought I would post these sights as it has been awhile since I have said anything about them.
I saw this boat out back of a building where it was completed a day or two before it was shipped out. It was in the middle of the night and I wheeled
my bicycle around to get a better look. I was shocked when I looked in side and realized this was a scale model test bead ....specifically for testing
new designs and new equipment. A very large radio controlled model. Very expensive too.

This was the first time I had hard confirmation as to how far and serious they were about the features on these new boats. Also how far and fast the
changes were coming. Obviously there are several types of these boats decked out for different types of testing categorys.

This is exactly what I saw that night just before they shipped her out.
Let me tell you something BASSPLYR...that night, when I saw this riding around on my bicycle...when I realized fully what it was I was seeing....my
mouth dropped open....like one of those dribbling idiots in the movie ET...you know the Stephen Spielburg Scenes....where everyone is standing around
dumbfounded, speechless, with their mouth hanging open. Well that was me when I realized how far and sophisticated they were willing to go to get the
facts straight about new designs and equipment. This is serious stuff dude..hardball.
Also this last set of photos are about ten years olde. How far do you think they have come here??
Gotta go ...now ..things to get done around here.
Thanks,
Orangetom
