If Foundation 2000 Plus is not involved in Kelowna this year, does anyone know what kind of boats they will be using?

Hmm...no F 2000 group running the show?

Could it be one of the following?

A: They didn't want to pay the F 2000 group extra $$$ to run the show, and cut costs.

B: They believe they can do a better job

C: They have now learned what it takes to do it on their own.

D: They didn't get along (Max Sport Ent. vs. F 2000 Group) and parted ways...(hmm...McCammon vs. Burke all over again?)

E: All of the above.

F: None of the above.

Any guesses?

Only 7 Gem's in Vancouver unless they work out a deal with FCRCC, and Dragon Zone there is a chance, but I doubt it.

Geminis are here to stay. Might as well get good with them

Get good with the Geminis...NEVER!!!  They are horrendously bad boats, irresponsibly purchasd with absolutely no thought to the padding community.  


or you'll be retiring from paddling very early.

Nope, I will be paddling 6-16s, outrigger, etc...
