Just to get it out right away, the next run is April 15th 2017.
SubRon7 went down to the FunRun with the Gato and the Neptune SB-1.
Sam wanted to try some underwater filming (and I did too!). We found that it needs some tweaking. One the camera will need a corresponding weight to make it more neutral. As it was it gave the sub a slight up pitch which was great for getting the surface of the water and sail of a sub. He also did some hand held shots and learned he needs to go slower and steady. Next time! I will post the best of sometime.
The water was a little more cloudy because of rain the prior few days, but it is still clearer than most lakes I see our subs run in. The forecast was originally for rain, then a percentage, mostly cloudy, to it being a sunny day with clouds that would break the sunlight every now and then.
Will Oudmayer caught this shot of the Gato:

and Ralph Fendley took this shot:

I did not take many photos as the subs ran so well, I did not make the time to take photos.
