Re: My Facetruck thread.

Wouldn't it be great to get us all together for a raft trip?

Roger put this video up:

I know these guys in this video about how the race on the Youghiogheny got started. They asked my dad to be the official timer for the first races. I found this video and boy does it bring back memories. I never reached the level of these guys. Jess is a wild man. He built boats when they were still fiberglass. He came up with the small short boat design many use today. I remember he made a Darth Vader helmet. He's a self-taught engineer. Never did college. BTW, they don't mention it, but the Upper Yough is run on damn release.

Here is a wild and crazy day they had on the Upper Yough. Not dam release
