And people say that Havasu never has any wind.

Hope it's not all used up by the time we get there.

That wind will have the H-18 guys grinning like cheshire cats, and H-20's and Tigers littering the beach like so many broken toys .

It takes a hurricane to tear up a H-18 :D

Maybe thats why they quit building the H-18... not enough repair volume. :lol:

well if i could bring my boat i would truley be the only one left standing in the 40mph winds with my 16 and its reefable sail. Thats right. No jib, reefed, main, and 40mph winds... you guys wouldnt stand a chance against me. Never thought i would come out on top with a sail from the 70s but it looks like today might be my day :lol:

Bring it :shock: :twisted:
