I'm on the way to the boat to try the reacher/drifter I just bought<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> I've got all the hardware (thanks to Arlyn's set up that can be seen on his web site). I will at least get everything installed today. The wind forecast looks to be a little strong for the reacher. They're calling for 13 to 15 knots.

Hopefully I'll have some pictures to post Sunday night!<img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle>

The wind never dropped below 20 knots long enough to even put the reacher up at the dock. Will have to try next weekend. We had one micro burst that hit 52 knots and lasted about 25 seconds. Very unstable air this past weekend. Spent a lot of time doing spring-cleaning and making a material list for mods.
