My final Kite Safety sign submission...

[bryanleighty]

Its a hybrid of the large and smaller ones (wider, less length.. how some like it I guess)..

Has all edits that were discussed by those that chose to discuss it.

This is geared soley for the Skyway Launches. EB, or even Gulf Beaches, signs would probably have to be edited some.

I am not a graphic designer. This was basically my best at copying the signs they have on beaches in Hawaii based on one that Tom posted in the original thread that sparked all this stuff. Anyone that can better re-work this, please do so.

Also.. I was looking at the coast guards website and tho they have contact info, for emergencies 911 is everyone's best bet. They can quickly get you to the right deptartment.

I know that if I was in trouble enough to warrant a phone call to help me out, please call 911 and send in ALL the troops!

I'd be happy to supply the photoshop file to anyone that wants it.

I think it's good .. the 911 is ok, it just encourages people not to stand there like a deer in headlights repeating "should we call 911?". I can't count how many times I've seen that. I believe 911 will call Eckered S&R ANYWAY if the situation warrants it so no real need to list them.

Anyway, I think it looks great. But if I get voted out and we loose the 911 thats fine, no big deal.

I think that is great! Thanks for taking the time to do it and re-do it. I was begining to lose hope after the BBQ.

bob.. i was only at the BBQ for about 2 1/2 hours.. think you left before I did..
at about 7 a number of guys got together and started really discussing the options. first couple hours were just casual bs talk about all subjects. think the stuff i was hearing when I had to leave was really constructive talk.

also.. fyi on our boat.. Dan and I pumped out the gas tank last night and DAMN there was a lot of sludge.. dark dark murky crap. not sure if thats just build up from years and years.. or what.. but it was pretty gross and a lot of it. we can see into the tank thru the hole and it looks clean.. going to pour some fresh gas in there, swash it up and then pump it out and see what that gives us. I also bought an external tank with a hand pump primer just as a second option.

Thanks again for your help.. should know by tomorrow night if the fuel system was the problem (or just one of the problems)...

Brian....looks good. So to everyone happily monitoring this progress, what is our next step??? Should we go ahead and seek approval for East Beach?

Team Scott?

So for everyone that isn't a green rider yet (dumbasses like me who still can't go upwind) this pretty much means that everytime i'm at the beach someone will probably come discuss this? I guess most of you know me by now, but is that what this will do? Students will need to wait until their instructor beleives they have crossed the line over to intermediate rider? just trying to get it figured out in my head.
