Time to lend a hand while repair job gets the finishing touches

Created on Wednesday, 24 February 2010 13:34

We are happy to report that boat repairs to our 21 foot Evercraft are in the final stages. All the fibreglassing has been completed which included preparation for a full re-spray meaning the B.A.D will look as good as ever!

"It's all ready to paint, we'll do the bottom of the boat this Sunday" Clarky said.

"Then we'll roll it over, paint the rest and we'll be ready to drop a motor back in."

It is only with the continuing support from our sponsors that make such a quick repair job possible. Receiving generosity means giving back sometimes and next weekend we head over to Dargle to assist Brett Niddrie from BNR Engines with his efforts in the 2010 Dargle Powerboat Racing Spectacular.

Forming the BNR fleet includes Shane "Spike" Quinn pedalling his big block Chev powered 21 foot Racecraft along with Brett "The Jet" Sheppard who has bolted the Keith Black big block into his brand new 21 foot Childsplay.

Our team mechanic Mouse will be in the thick of final tuning on the 'Unleashed' Motec computer only too keen to gain further knowledge of the high end technology from Niddrie.

Tuff'E'Nuff team owner & driver Dave Clark and crew-chief Dave Murray will also be heading to Dargle to join the BNR Engines race crew.

We might be without a boat as we head into the second half of the season, but we're still amongst the racing whenever possible. We look forward to seeing our fellow competitors from abroad once again.

A full report on our weekend at Dargle will be coming soon.
