[C38] Bad News

[Robert Miller]

Sorry to hear that, Larry.  By the way, I was on the Southwestern YC race
committee for the Marina Del Rey to San Diego race and noticed you were
listed as a starter but logged a DNF.  What happened?  By the way, only 4
out of 17 finished.

 

Best of luck with getting Hassle back together.

Hi all;

 

Just a note to let all my amigos here know we had an electrical fire on
Hassle Thursday evening.  The damage is significant but limited to wiring in
the engine compartment and fuel tank area so it may be repairable. We are
working with our insurance carrier, their retained surveyor and an
electrician now and will make a determination soon on Hassle's future.  Wish
us good luck on this please. 

 

We had an mechanic/electrician installing a new 105 amp alternator on Hassle
when this happened, we are not sure what the cause of the fire is just yet.
I have an Origin and Cause Expert coming down tomorrow to check and see if
he can determine the origin and cause of the fire.

 

I'll try to keep everyone posted on our progress or lack of.

 

 

 

 

Best regards,

Larry Malmberg
