Hey everyone,
We will be filming a TV special in Parker over the Labor Day weekend. We will probably be at all of the usual haunts, including upper and lower sandbar, Foxes, Roadrunner and we will be home-based at the Bluewater. No missing the boat, so feel free to stop by anytime and check it all out.
Hope to see a lot of you out there.... it should be fun finally getting this thing wet where it belongs!
Anyone who wants to hook up with us, you can call my cell at (619) 823-5643 and get me most of the time. It pretty much works in Parker.
See you there!!!

No, I think we will be all pictured up.
We didn't get the ramp all sorted out in time, but everything else is pretty well finished. Should be pretty cool. We had some machining problems that have held us up on a couple of parts, but we will get past all that and go party anyway!!!

I wanna see some pics of the engine, plumbing and rigging. The little bit I've seen looked bad ass. That just makes me want to see more!
C'Mon Wes, give us a fix man. :)

To give you all an idea what it is going to take to be there Sunday... The interior is not in the boat, the engine is not in the boat. I am on wiring evolution #4 and plumbing iteration #2. This is the second dual drive installation, and the first time the flooring is going in. It is sitting on a dolly, not the trailer and we haven't water tested it. I personally gelcoated the hatch an hour ago. We are laminating the ramp assembly right now. One of five cupholders are built, and we tooled the mold for them on Wednesday. Now we are just cranking out parts.
This is going to be an interesting night/day.
I do however have a venti mocha from Starbucks, and the pizza from Oggi's just showed up. Anyone looking for a kick in the balls can feel free to come by and share in mine!

Why can't we get interior pics? I'm not gonna bet against a guy that ate frogs for 3 days just so he could pop a terrorist in the head without being noticed, but I'm not gonna count coleman coolers as an interior either :D

Quick update for everyone....
Most of the interior is in, flooring is installed, subwoofer enclosure is finished and subs are going back in right now, underdash wiring is done and two of the five cupholder bins are finished and getting installed.
We are going to make it. I figure I have 24 hours from right now for the rest of it....
I need more coffee...

Rough night all around. Lots of progress thus far though, and the rest of the crew has shown up, so we are moving quickly.
Lots of stuff looking really good though. I am definitely glad we used this opportunity to implement some of the production techniques and methods into the prototype.
looks like you need a Trident web blog for an hour by hour count. :coffeycup :rollside: :coffeycup

We spent the better part of Saturday at Trident, I brought down the latest batch of prototypes to bolt to the beast. She is looking sweet. Motor was all plumbed up. Interior and tunes are ready, no milk crates here.
I saw alot of bees humming around getting her ready. Wes and the crew are a determined group.
I left around 9 and everything was coming together, I was hoping to hear the motor light off.
I wish I could be in Parker to see the Revolution take to its new home.

Congrats Wes! I have been watching your build and can't wait to visit and see how you have come along.
Heard you were down there. Look forward to seeing your roost in Havazoo.
