Re: Roghest Race??
Miami '04 was ridiculous!!
Although, '05 wasn't a picnic. I was Capt. of the boat that had to fish out the 2 guys from Kean. If you have seen the on-board video you can see how much air was involved......

Re: Roghest Race??
I raced in Miami 04 and 05 and SWAM IN 04. Definately rough, Daytona was worse. Didn't have the fortune of running Cape Cod so I cannot comment. As far as the poll races, I would have to say AC then Point then Lauderdale but all pretty brutal. The things that stand out to me with AC and point both in 04 were the rough chop on top of big swells
Dania this year was no slowch either...come to think of it most races were rough for me
My best Pic was AC 04

Re: Roghest Race??
Our very first race point pleasant 2001 Early May. Spent three years building the boat and destroyed it in 20 minutes. Went out the inlet went up in the air, came down, broke the dash in half, the helm fell out, broke the deck, blew out the floor we stand on, Dropped two bulkheads in the bilge, and we were not even to the mill yet. Ran the race with the helm between my legs. Last lap, broke the bolster in half. All in all, had the time of my life. I will never forget my very first race. Tony P of Bad Boy powerboats Glassed it back up and 65 races later it never broke again. I would go back and do it all over again. Smitty
