    Default Ballast / prop group buy

    Would anybody be interested in a ballast / prop group buy this time of year? Is there anybody willing to set something up similar to last Aug?

    The vendor already agreed to do another group buy similar to what they did in August, but they asked that it not be more frequent than annually and liked the "end of summer blowout" timing. We might be able to do something if there is enough interest, but I wouldn't expect it to be on the same scale as August. Maybe we could focus on the props specifically? Or is it ballast you're looking for? I'll help organize however I can.

    I'm looking to get three Johnson pumps. A 750 sack for mid ship and a new prop. Needless to say Santa brought me some nice boat money.

    Nevermind I just ordered the 1847 from Nettle and I'll just work with wakemakers.

    I'm looking at adding an 1847 and possibly some custom made ballast bags - not sure they'd allow the custom bags with a group buy discount.

    Personally, I'd much rather see the group buy timing at or near the start of the season, so we can put our new mods to good use right away, rather than the end of season and having them sit on a shelf or in the box for months.
    So when is this "old enough to know better" supposed to kick in?

    I hear you Berg, some of us aren't blessed enough to have 9 month seasons like the southerners.

    BTW Nettle has a smoking price on the 1847 $475

    How about a batch of group buy options right around tax return time! Now that could be dangerous...

    I hear you there! Although we have open water again so maybe I should pull the boat out for a new years wake session...

    So what should we do next? Newty just did the underwater LEDs, so maybe the Moomba letters or audio?

    I'd buy a set of the Moomba letters and a guy can always use more audio.
