    Other than the TS Pilot 'blades' which if you look @ the mileage, isn't that unreasonable, I haven't bought BRP carbides in years.

    they patented the angled stud on a carbide

    Not sure how you figure that. Checking the Royal catalog shows the Woodys TBIII carbides (which I used on my REV) are a hundred bucks a pair across all OEMs. No upcharge for the Pilot skis.

    dealer cost is different

    That is good to know. I have never had to re power a boat so far. With new engines now, most 4 strokes should last longer then boat anyway’s? These new four stroke outboards are good for a few thousand hours they claim, depending on application. At 50 hours a year that is a life time of boating for average user now.

    The low hours have now become a cause for failure. Between corrosion on moving parts and deferred maintenance.

    Right way and people will come back after having a positive experience. Nothing like finding out your 2015 is a 2014 when you go to trade it in. 

    With outboards it is the boat that seems to carry the value . A bit unfair for the older boat with the newer out board

    I think it would be a cool retirement gig. Lease out the restaurant, offer food/accommodation packages for sledders and atv's and live on the third floor.

    I would never spend a night in that firetrap

    The pic above does elude to that possibility, but this pic shows it better:

    There is a 3' retaining wall along the edge, and the truck seems to be plenty far back from that to have had the riggers out - which sorta makes one wander if the rear riggers on that side actually broke?

    or did the ground?

  10. I cannot express my pride in the crew that make up the South Seguin. It has been a bit of a discouraging year these folks never gave up.

    Last year we lost our groomer base with the sale of Alves Auto center. A committee was formed and worked tirelessly to look at options. With a very generous offer from The new owners at the Jolly Roger/Super 8 the old original groomer base was offered up. It took tireless work by the crew but they got it done in style.

    Bridge problems on the Seguin were the sour taste of the year. The decking on several bridges had suddenly gone to the consistency of wet corn flakes and some special person had fallen through bridge 5 in what looked like a tandem truck failing the bridge. Working with our partners Park to Park as well as the OFSC and PSSD aswell as some cash from SSSC the bridges are safe again. There will be more bridge repairs and replacements in the future.

    Our Tucker was extremely tired and had repeatadly failed on us last year. Thank you OFSC and PSSD for the replacement rejuvenated Tucker never in my over 30 years with the OFSC have they ever had our back like today.

    With repeated windstorms and an aging forest windfalls were at an all time high crews were out all fall clearing the trees and getting it done.

    The Drags are both old and well worn. Joe rebuilt them both professionally and well. Thank You Joe !

    I have been with the South Seguin since 1991 and the HCSA for 8 years before that. I have never ever seen a better crew

    To the Directors ,executive groomers ,volunteers,landowners and supporters I am beyond proud of all of you.
