APBA In Cape Cod?
 
I was looking at the schedule and did'nt see Cape Cod on the list. It was great to see the races up here in Nantucket sound water, but they had a bad weekend. Does anyone know if they are coming again??

BODYSHOT1 03-21-2003 02:25 PM

don't think APBA is going back this year.....

they should use the race date from corpus christy to go to cape cod , it's looking dim for the corpus christy race. food for thought

I had them all set up to race just outside Boston harbor off Nantasket Beach. The town was on board as well as the harbor master. They never even gave me a courtesy call. Too bad could have been a great spot to race, with great spectator viewing.

Too slow 03-23-2003 04:22 PM

race off nantasket would be cool
 
that would have been cool MFB357a race off Nantasket....there were a couple of races there in the mid to late 80's werent there?..i was probably like 12yrs old..i think the race was cancelled due to fog???anybody remember?

So who wants to be the big dog and form a local club that will support a local racing in Cape Cod. All you need is a sponsor who will pay the purse fees and some (20+ support boats and another 5+ with Meds on board) support and turn boats.

Even when race organization brings a race, someone needs to organize the local support fleet.

Look at the Great Lakes, POPRA under the APBA banner and NJ Offshore under the OPA banner. How about CCOffshore.com? Some one needs to step up and get the ball rolling.

just relocated down here to nc, from what i've seen living in winthrop , ma. there was more hot stuff in boston harbor and the north shore then on the cape. maybe someone on the north shore can start something up???i plan on being up there in the summers so i would love to see it!!!

Ron P 03-23-2003 09:20 PM

OPA is looking to expand it's Northeast race schedule. So get a sponsor with about 40K, the rest of the stuff I mentioned above and lets go racing. OPA will take care of the rest.

AIRTIME 03-26-2003 06:49 PM

I;ll do some talken, the cape or winni .

TYPHOON 03-26-2003 06:54 PM

If you do it do the cape not the lake. No more lake races unless its one of the great lakes.
