Dave, the local free Ches. Bay magazine NOR'EASTER just kinda states what the website says. Its in Hambrooks Bay and the mag gives an 800 number, you could try that, they will prob know all the details of where you can watch and what time things start. 800-638-7802. Hope this helps some.

These races are limited hydros, flat bottoms, & Jersey Speed Skiffs. The hydros run from 70 - 140 on a one mile closed/circle course. Flat bottoms fun 100+ and the JSS run about 85. Cambridge is a great course, I raced 7-Litre hydro, Ski racing run about and 266 hydro for 15+ years. I still make a couple of races when the weather is not real great off AC to go boating in the ocean.

Thanks guys,

blue, Do they have areas set up for spectators in boats?

Mark, I think I am going to put in at Breezy Point and ride across on Sunday. Let me know if you are interested in going.

Dave, yes they do, best place is on outside of the first turn. Everybody wants to be on the inside at the first turn. The boats are so competitive, usually, the first one in and out of the first turn is the winner after five miles. Enjoy the races...
