    They lied!! 4 to 6 weeks for delivery? It was more like a week maybe two!!:p
    All the items had some kind of detail explanation for the installation which is nice for us new comers. All but the cannon kit in regards to the fittings and such.
    Impressed here =D Same goes for Palmer's Pursuit for my regulator.

    BC is normally pretty good about things, but I have had a hull take the 6 weeks to get, but over all normally I get things with in a few days if they happen to have it in stock.

    This is the one I got. http://www.palmer-pursuit.com/cart/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=8_9_28&products_id=175

    I had them tap it with another 1/8 NPT hole so that I could have more than one line feeding the guns. I use the parker push-quick fittings and 1/4 hose for feeds to the cannons. From what I hear I wouldnt need an expansion tank. I also added a pressure guage to it.

    Rick does not keep all the hulls in stock, some of them he has to order from his fiberglass guy, and if he's busy, or the weather is bad, it may take a few weeks. The guy makes Corvette replacement peices, why the hulls look so good.

    David maybe I need to ask Rick this guy's information and see if I can get some good replacement parts for my Corvette done in a light weight Carbon fiber.

    Little update.
    Like some of my earlier post mentioned BC accidentally sent me a Des Moines hardware kit instead of a Cleveland. Talked to them and said I would modify the rudder no problem. But I wondered if they could swap the 1.5 4blade props with some 1.25 3blade. Rick said no big deal, sent them back postage and I received the replacement props along w/ some other stuff I order.
    Good guys to deal with.
