The POPRA Offshore Grand Prix race is definitely on for the Havasu Boat Show. Testing on Friday, April 20 and racing on Saturday and Sunday afternoon. If you have a boat and would like to run, POPRA will find a way to fit you in a class. Check out www.pacificoffshore.com for details and contact info.

Check out the news on the new Shootout course.

I've been covering the poker run for many years and can't wait to see how the new course works out and what else Jim Nichols and the crew at LakeRacer LLC have in store for the event in late April.

“The new course will be easier to manage, including eliminating boat traffic along the California side closest to the course, as well as having a strictly enforced ‘no wake zone’ along the Arizona side,”
Great to see!
The cool thing about this location and Havasu is non spectating boats can pass thought the Channel and avoid the race course entirely.
The larger wakes from the Thompson Bay side will have longer to travel and hopefully lose energy.
Its going to take significant pre event and launch site notifications as well as active volunteer patrol boat work to shut down some of the "it's all about me" west coast captians but I would expect a few well placed WP boats with lights on would get boaters' attention.
"no wake" banners over the gunwals?
Course change is encouraging. Best of luck in 2012!

Definetly looks like I will be going but for only one day out of all the days, which is the best? Don't care so much about seeing the boats out of the water but more seeing/hearing them in the water, remember I will also be land locked!!
Thanks
