Folks, I know that some of you have been turned off to boat racing over the past few years because of politics and infighting, but some of us has stuck through it all and the St Clair race is the culmination of our collective efforts.

Now I hear that the famous Billy Martin is bring out the old 36' Cig Bounty Hunter to race with his son in OPA P4 class. Billy was the guest of AMF at the OPA race in Point Pleasant and saw that he could have some fun again, maybe you can too.

This will be the biggest race since 2004, when 90 boats assembled in Key West for the Worlds. Look for 70 to 80 boats to fill the streets and parking lots along the St Clair waterfront.

Racing will be at noon for ALL OPA boats. 2pm for the smaller Vee OSS boats and 4pm for the OSS Cat boats.

And if you have little ones that want to get into boating, read on.

Hey, and if you can't make it, I'll tell ya all about it in Extreme Boats Magazine. This one is gonna be a hoot!

ATTENTION OFF SHORE RACE TEAM MEMBERS AND FREINDS!!

Gotta give credit where credit is due, Team Bounty Hunter took first place in the "Drivers" race, however Team Konrad took first place in the kids race.
We look forward to a rematch.

Hi Bob, Thanks again for the BIG boat ride last Saturday
