As you know, Michael Storer, the designer of the Oz PDRacer and other great boat designs, lives in Australia. But we would like to bring him to the USA for the PDRacer World Championship which will be held on October 9-11 at Allatoona Lake near Atlanta Georgia. While he is here, Michael will attend a few other messabouts so check the SCHEDULE below for one near you.

When you consider that Michael sells the plans for his version of the PDR for a lousy twenty bucks, it is easy to see why he can't just fly over here at the drop of a hat.

If all you guys who bought the OzPDR plans so cheaply will just pony up half the difference between what you paid and what you should have paid, we will have Michael over here to enjoy the event, meet a bunch of you and generally get a dose of American hospitality.

Duckworks is making a substantial contribution and underwriting Michael's trip, so if you have had good service from us on plans and supplies, you can show your thanks by contributing to this worthy cause.

Anyone making a contribution of $50 or more will receive a complimentary Puddle Duck Burgee.
