Yes, each stop will have special parking for NIOC cars. Really cool cars on one side and the boats on the water front of each stop. I think the amount of horsepower in each car ranged from 450 - 750. Some looked they escaped from race tracks.

I'll be in the River Shiver. Looking forward to having my boat in it for the first time. I have the 2001 Baja 25 Outlaw in white with yellow trim, a red checkered flag and a marine vhf antenna mounted on the driver side. I'll have my parents and a married couple that I'm friends with in my boat.

From what I hear it will be single file with a good bit of spacing between boats. With all the laws trying to be passed, the last thing we need is to have a race down the river and boats being perceived as driving recklessly.

Gonna be a cold start for sure !!!!
