Capstan 82
 

The more I look at those pics it looks very much like Capstran 82,as I have noted Rampage,Cigarette Hawk,Flapjack,The Collection,Tosti Asti all raced in the Capstran event plus the spectators in the background do not have the island in the back,and the Key West spectators mainly gathered in bunches with this island as a backdrop.

Why from the States anyone NEVER can't say something of more detailed?:traurig001:

More detail please
 

You tell em Marco.Imagine an American posting full details of skater cats and their ex-names,I think we would have a heart attack at the shock of it,and as for Bertrams and Cigarettes,it`s just us to piece together the history by the looks of it.I think lot of it, is having the desire to log the offshore history down,as I`m sure the knowledge is out there.

Ok Gents, I scanned more.

three more

Love that pace boat.

Thats all the race pics I can find right now. I have hundreds more, but they are mostly of Excaliburs.

I would like to know more about these too. I am in this picture, but in the womb on the bow. My mother is sitting down watching.

I am not sure that all these were Key West. They have May 1982 on the back of them. Was there a May 1982 Race in Key West?

TxHawk,

Got any 27 Excalibur race boat pics ?

However Many Thanks TxHawk for the interesting pics!
No APBA race in Key west in May I think and the location according to Flying Fish it seem not Key west for some pics.
In May 82 were two races;Bacardi Trophy and Captran.
