Thanks Boots, good info! Those fires in the lighter, flashy fuels will move out, but once they stop, they're out pretty quickly.

Going to have a pair of jetskis complete with trailer going up for sale. One starts and runs and flies instantly, the other needs some ( i beleive) ignition work, fires on one cylinder until its good and ready to fire on two. 1997, 2 stroke, decent finish, covers too. Have to confirm price with owner but gonna go...inexpensively.

There was absolutely no smoke in the desert. We couldn't see even a plume. We could see some of the burned area.

Have a great day from all of us at SCM!

Boots, I just got home a trip down to Victorville. I didn’t have any problems if that’s what you were asking.

Has anyone taken 18 into Victorville in the last 2 days? How is it?

To our local firefighter contingent, looking for a couple sections, 10ft or so of used beat up firehose to make a dock sling. Anyone have some hanging around??
