Steve, long time no talk!

Steve, long time no talk! We need to terrorize the ducks at Balboa or Reseda park. The other day i was fishing at the lower lake of Castaic and the water is super clean so that might be another choice and it looked to be easy access to the water. So you're building a 1/72 scale blueback? Woah what havent you built? I was searching for a 1/72 scale Permit originally and came across a picture of a 1/48 scale Blueback and looked sweeet! So what are the dimensions of your blueback? Better yet we need to meet up soon when it warms up. I had frost all over my lawn this morning.

Actually the guys meet there

Actually the guys meet there every Thursday at 12 pm. They run boats and subs. Forget Balboa. Dirty water and too much activity. We use the Aquatic center area at Hanson that has a RC boat section. Very nice there and the water is always clear.

The BB is 36 inches long. There's a building thread on my forum http://www.subpirates.com/viewtopic.php?t=323

That will tell you everything you want to know.

Give me a call some time and come by or we can meet at the lake after the holidays.

Every thurs at noon ehh?

Every thurs at noon ehh? I will check that out for sure sometime. I still have your # so i'll give you a call. I was hoping Balboa would be clean. I havent touched my Albacore since that last big sub gathering at Balboa lake that we set up. I just check out that building thread, looks VERY NICE! But way too much work for me. This will probably be more difficult to build compared to the Subtech Albacore right?

A lot harder. I'm doing a 212 now that will be easy compared to it like my GW kit.

Ya call sometime man. I'm always here. Lots to see.

hi Britt,
Were you going to do anymore of these as a kit. I know this was your baby, your plug and molds. Very nice size model, this boat in this scale was always one of my all time favs. Hope all you guys have a great , new year. thanks Jeff Jones
