Finster-
Nice find on that old thread ;). It is amazing what we've got stored here on CSC!

My mom still does the shows with our Customcraft Stingrays. She came in first for her category this year with the boat Otto brought down. :cool: I wish I had some current pic's.

Too late Big, from one of his previous posts Ben's already gutted it. :(
