Holy Smokes!!!! I'm probably the only one who hasn't seen this but I just took a look at the past.
I was watching the t.v. and saw the fellas across the pond racing in a P1 Race.
Big V-hulls!!!!!
Big water!!!!!!
Open cockpits!!!!!!!
It was pretty rowdy.
I started on this site not too long ago but, since then I've seen several threads on big water open water races. A chance for the old schoolers and new schoolers to get down and dirty in the open. Many people wishing that racing was still like that. This was it.
Am I the only one watching this?????????

I couldn't believe they were racing a Bullet. That shows you how stout those old cigs are.

Nice!
That was back when you built a boat for a particular class.
No breakout speeds. No GPS. No Bracket Racing.
What happened??????
49 "A" Class boats!
