Very Soon, hoping to show it at the Brew next month. Still working on a few issues to get this "just right". You should be able to order the kit, or buy a' la carte
Luling is only about 6 hrs from me. I may be able to make this. Will have to see as it gets closer. New job so not sure yet.
The majority of the attendees will drive more then 6 hours to attend. I am helping host and am about 6 hours out in Houston. I found it to be an easy drive... if you get loose at 4pm.. pack before you go to work.. you can make the hotel by 10pm.
If need be I know I can park in New Orleans, but would need a ride back and forth to the truck every day.
So how did it fare at the Bru? I see the kits are listed on VacuBoat now, though still as a preview and not yet for general sale. http://www.vac-u-boat.com/Vac-U-FletcherCombat.htm
Sharp looking kit, my free time is very limited but I'm for sure going to have to pick up a pair of these to mess around with after selling off my entire fleet. Very interested to see the internal arangement. Kinda sick I traded my z-boat years ago now. I'd love to hear how it performed and see some more detailed pictures or action shots if any were taken.
Just saw the PDF instructions on the http://www.vac-u-boat.com/index.htm website. It's not going to be long.
I see a brief mention of one on page 25, but didn't see much for installing it - outlet, holddowns, etc.
