Most guys will get there on Friday at Harrison...but you will see some start on Thurs.
Then most teams leave there boats up there for the following week...some even make it a weeks vacation...
Also check with Dean on here...last year there were 2 partys on the same night that one took away from the other...

let me know in St Clair if you guys want to put a engine/drive package on display next to the boat in the pits on the street..The C.G should also be bringing on of there 25' boats next to us also...

See ya soon...and thanks for the support...

Do many people stick around for the whole week? We haven't scheduled anything yet but would like to offer it up to the boating crowd since they are right here in our back yard.

Yes most are around the whole weekend and even the week since St Clair is the next weekend. Last year's River Ratt party was off the hook.

I am checking on the poker run as I type and will let you shortly. If not we can make our own if enough guys want to run. It could a Coast Guard benefit if you want Gino.

We might be able to do that...we have some things aleady going on with them..but the more we can promote Boating Safety and our sport the marrier...

Let me know what your thinking...

Harrison FYI: I discovered last year after a friday night Terry's Terrace excursion, that security closes and locks the gates to the pits sometime between 11:30 pm and 2:30 am. The big fence with the rows of barbwire on top is scaleable to get back to your motorhome. You just have to be drunk enough to think you can climb 7' of chainlink with 3 rows of barb wire on top if it, and just sober enough to pull it off without killing yourself.

Good thing Im the medic safety guy, I figured if I wiped out, I could fix myself :D

Nick....I can come threw anytime....I will probably even come by sometime and say Hi during the Harrison weekend....
I will be getting in on Thurs morning of July 16th and flying out on the 19th and then flying back in on the 22nd....

When ever Imco Offshore wants to schedule is good with me...then I will let the other guys know the times...

George....Bob Mason will probably be there...he is the man to talk to on the pricing....and a great guy to deal with...

There web site gives the specs between the 650 and the 725...

http://ilmor.com/marine/index.html

Bob or Ian can answer anymore questions outside of the web site...

Its a pretty impresive package...and operation they got going on there....

If you want and you have time...you can jump into my boat and take a spin in St Clair to feel the power....

I know...after running hp500 and 525's over the last 9 years...and now running the ILMOR...what a big differance...even compairing Marks 27 Activator with the 525 to this 27 with the ILMOR...and with the engine weighting in at 200 lbs lighter...and now having the option to run a Indy drive and still being the same weight as the 525/XR package...its just a win..win all around...

Are you coming to Harrison and St Clair

Should be at both. The new Gold Cup stuff may cut into some of my other running around though.

For sure St Clair.

correction.....Merc 525 is 1201lbs vs Ilmor 810lbs. THATS HUGE!!

correction.....Merc 525 is 1201lbs vs Ilmor 810lbs. THATS HUGE!!

I thought the Merc guys told me a few years back that the 525 was just over 1000lbs....if it is 1200lbs that is huge...because the 650/Indy drive is only 1208lbs combined..

Are you going to be ready for St Clair....

MANITIE
06-29-2010, 02:51 PM
Just looked it up...and you are right..1201lbs....thats a huge differance when you can get a 725/Indy package for the same weight as a 525 by itself...

Just think on the weight differance on a twin 525/#6 package
to a twin 725/Indy package....and even price differance of the 650/Indy package to the 525 package..

Now take the fuel economy of the Ilmor to another 725 hp engine...plus the lighter weight of the boat...
