I just tried to buy one here in the USA and was told that they will NOT be available here until, at the earliest, JUL 2006. The NACRA Rep here said they are being produced now but the 1st 200 +/- are all going overseas. I did not want to wait that long for a boat so I ordered the "Old Fashiond" one that I can have next month. [color:"blue"] [/color] At least this way I can blame my losses on having an Old, Slow boat! ;-)
