Just got the other Cheyenne off the dolly trailer back on the road trailer and got the dolly trailer loaded up in the big trailer. I had never carried this dolly trailer in my enclosed and had to rework the tongue so that the left picklefork wouldn't hit the side cabinets at the front of the trailer. I've known Ervin since the early/mid 80's. Met him when I put together the first TX-19 that I ever rigged.

Gary,
Saw your boat a couple of weeks ago- you are going to be a happy camper, and I can tell you that you will be more impressed each tiime you are in it.

Travel safe, and say hello to Erv!

Thaks, Ken........ Hey Ron......... This one is a light layup for Pro Gas Jet, but you can get one pretty much any way that you want it.

Alright 1R.......... Where do I pick up an application?....... We finally got back from Arkansas last night about midnight. 22 hours on the road, 1000 mile round trip. Stopped in OKC on the way back and had supper with the Seitsinger clan, and thanks, Bob, for supper. Got into Eureka Springs about 9 Friday night. Driving up through the mountains, kept seeing a set of tail lights, then they'd disappear. Finally figured out that it was the rear of my own trailer. Those mountain roads are killer. That was a joke, by the way. Ken, since you've been to his new shop, imagine dropping off the road into his parking lot with a 30' enclosed trailer. That was the most exciting part of the trip, and well, maybe pulling back out on the highway. I am very happy with what I see. Ervin did an excellent job. Don't want to disclose too much, but boat came in under the target weight. Inside is awesome. I'll get started setting the intake Tuesday and roll the boat Wednesday afternoon to do the keel. All I need now is to sell a few more of them. THANKS ERVIN, YOU DID A DAMN NICE JOB, NOW FIX YOUR DRIVE SO I DON'T RIP ALL THE TRIM OFF THE BOTTOM OF MY TRAILER TRYING TO GET IN THERE. Pictures at 11.

Gary,
Yep I sure can imagine! The old shop was bad enough, but this new one..It's like going over the big hill on a rollercoaster!!!

I think it's an Ervin test.....just how bad do you want your boat? LOL

the floor is beautiful in yours...wish mine had come out that good!!

CS19......... We will be running a Schmidt 500" DRCE II Olds and Owen's gearbox with a pump of our own mixture. I've got the engine apart right now, freshening it up.This is not Zellmer's old engine. I've been asked that a lot. Full race, Pro Gas Jet. Who knows, we may end up running in the PWC class.
