Well then the only thing left is that 750 and 850 be combined into one class, at least to have more than 2 boats in a race, this has to be the right thing to do at the moment.

A lot of work is ongoing to Fury to make it handle better in rough water, if we had made LOTO then we could not have got the work done for KW.

What has also hurt this year is the uncertain race schedule too, lets hope we can stick together and make it happen next year.

The only thing constant in offshore is change.

Even the OPA cancelled 2 race sites this year, and then even cancelled the replacement for one of those sites.

True ,a few have been dropped in the past . Most have been replaced imediatly .Youres drop and nothing comes back in their place . You have one site left .
You could have run all summer with OPA ,they invited you .
I wonder how many outside OSS will go to loto?
I hope a lot ,for the fans sake .
go getem be safe .

me Ron roman vinny and mike d from sterling had something real good to merge the cat classes which would have really made things fun some people did not even want to here about it i think some dont like competition or change and like getting a flag against 2 or 3 some felt it would be unsafe with 20 or so boats we had that figured out also shame there was not more positive help bacause i agree 2 -3 in a class is a joke
