    At the Classic

    At the Classic! Saw Kelly Power and the 210. Tickled to have chatted with Kelly. I had spoken on phone with him in 1990, when he recommended Pro-Tec products for the Champs. Fun to see him in person! The 210 is one Beautiful boat!!!! Met Joe Dorris...really nice guy. Said the 198 will be out shortly. Show VERY crowded!!!!! VERY Crowded!!!!!

    Back in hotel now. Will watch weigh-in at the hotel bar, where we will pay $14 for a beer!!!! Don't even ask what the darned hotel room costs!!!!! Right now, have feet propped up watching a little tv and playing on my iPad.

    Took me awhile to learn, but pretty much ok now. Better than lugging the much heavier laptop that I use at home.

    Lea, I'm going to ask a really stupid question because I'm ignorant and I know it...
    You say the 210 is beautiful and the 198 will be out soon? What brand are you speaking of?

    Charger Boats has splashed the 210 and 198 hulls. They've made a few changes to the top cap, but they are undoubtedly Champs. The 210 has been out almost 2yrs and the 198 is due out any time.
