They should have no problem making the 20. I will throw this out there though. The community supports the go fast boat events here pretty well. There is talk of the issues with boats running too fast for conditions, not obeying the no-wake zones, nighttime speed limit and last but not least, loud boats running late at night. Just keep these issues in mind when you are running up on the families in toons and other smaller craft. Me, I love it, I have a ring side seat on the dock.

The New Jersey Performance Powerboat Club's Atlantic City Poker Run ran 21 times - 1998 through 2018. Following its 2018 season, the club disbanded for several of the factors Matt detailed.

The shootouts are ok but running a Drag event with Offshore boats imo would bring new life to our sport. Besides specific classes you can have grudge, call outs, smack talk with double elimination. There’s talk of one contemplated being run in the fall on the Chesapeake, if the stars align.
