Great thread!
It's seems to be a good time to remind everyone of the Offshore Library.
Perhaps some of you would like add your old photos to it?
If so, contact OSO member DaveP of NJPPC.
Thanks again for sharing.
Here is the link to the Library: http://njppc.com/librarypreface.htm

Re: My first boat race
Does anyone have any pics of Cigarette Lady (35 Cigarette) around 1982 and up? I own her now as a pleasure boat. Would love to see her in action back in the day.

Dee probably remembers though. I grew up looking at a stack of pictures from that race, combined with my fathers boat I was hooked! Here's a few shots I scanned in, too many to scan though. Lot's of running shots, I'll show you next time I see ya.
