If it's run the same weekend as the FRPR, it would be armageddon at BLM! With that said, it would add to an already fun and exciting weekend, one I look forward to every year.


One major downside to this location is the water is far from 'offshore' conditions (it's like running on a river)... then again, that might mean it will fit right in with the majority of other races on the circut.

I have run many true OFFSHORE races in my lifetime,but nothing equals the thrill of 10 boats, deck to deck, going into turn one.

Well said Ernie! Opa has great stats as opposed to the cluster poop that happens at a race down south .

Does anyone have any confirmed dates as to when this race will happen? I went to the opa site and nothing for 2015(except the awards) is posted. Since I do enjoy racing down south in what is been referred to as a "cluster poop" as well as up north, I am putting my schedule together now... I know things get mentioned in drivers meetings and they sound really great, however until "John Hancock's" are signed on the dotted line with the extensive contracts that are involved in locking up a race site, well ya know....
