Subject: The Weight Limit is 880 #
Info: (27010 views) Posted: Thursday 1-3-08 11:29:13 AM
Please can we drop this weight issue and leave it as 880lbs! Even if you change the weight to some other number someone will always be unhappy. If we remove the weight limit all together I feel it will destroy the class. Personally I like the 880lbs weight limit and do not want to see it changed it is the ideal weight for this boat.

Please let’s leave it alone!
