As you can see by my photo that block of cement blocks the view of all boats approaching the MOLE..

I do agree that it is thrilling to see/hear them when 20 feet directly in front of you...then they are gone.

Since you can't see them coming and follow them past yu, from a spectators view point it truly sucks.

Hell, even after paying the $$$$ for VIP seatin/viewing I spent most time about 100 yards to the left (facing the water)
on the bed of a pickup truck (thanks to a couple of strangers) ..yet when I scanned camera to the right the F$$$$ng cement thing blocked my view.

I think ALL those that paid $$$ for VIP viewing got the royal screwing last year and will agin this year if situated in the same area.

Just my humble, yet unbiased opinion..

Don't get the VIP package and just watch the race from the outer mole,Mallory Square or from the second floor at the Pier House (if they have that this year).
