Sounds great,we will be in Daytona

gdfatha,

Heard it may be Sea Love Marina at Ponce Inlet. Circulation of tow vehicles/trailers was a concern but I heard it may be solved. This location would be a material improvement over the past location as it's a direct shot out the inlet. The cranes would be located at Sea Love Marina and a ramp at an adjacent location would be used for smaller boats. It is the marina that the casino boat usually is docked. The casino boat will be moved for races and its face dock will be utilized.

Not a done deal but close.

Congrats OSO.... Keep up the great work and thanks for bringing us to the next level...

OffshoreOnly 03-15-2003 08:04 PM

Thank you all for your kind words. We will be outfitting the Gladiator with the Vortecs.

We had the opportunity to be the Pace boat at the APBA Nationals and Worlds last year and can say that if you are not going to actually race, the next best thing is being the Pace Boat. The excitement of having the helicopter flying only feet above your head during the parade lap is exhilirating.

As for the OSO members you should enjoy the close-up pictures that we take from angles that even the helicopter photographers can't get. These pictures will be posted in the Photos section of the website after every race.

Our two primary responsibilities will be to start the race and then look after the safety of the racers during the race. The racers shoud be rest assured that in the event of a situation, which we hope there are not any, OSO has got your back covered and we will do our best to provide a safe race course.

We look forward to a great season which will be kicked off in Daytona in less than one month.

Be safe and good luck!!

OSO
