The Jersey Boyz Pictorial
 

There’s a paradise south of New York.

It’s the home of the 25cents toll, and the home of the Jersey Boyz.

On Saturday, 4/26, the Boyz had their first annual meeting at Crabby’s in Brick.

All kinds of heavy duty towing vehicles filled the parking lot.

Simply awesome: Bruce and Paul.

Team Typhoon at their usual spot.

Pantera by day …

… and by night.

The National Powerboat Association sent their observer.

Jim Capie (a.k.a. JCAP) had a long drive, all the way from Long Island.

Gang Colors.

More Gang Colors.

Even more Gang Colors.

Gang leader's colors.

New Jersey’s finest in full combat gear. It’s a tough crowd, after all.

All important state agencies have sent their representatives

With so much police presence, putting away your weapons seems to be the smart move.

And if you run afoul, Boat US will unground you at a racer’s discount.

This is Bob Geoghegan, by the way, the brains behind www.offshoreraceteams.com

Can't stand that off-broadway paint job on your boat?

These are the guys to call if you want it professionally done.

The Jersey Boyz even have their team of Chiropractors.

Randy pays his annual dues.

Your $100 membership buys you a rule book, a sticker, and a keyfob.

"That's a great value,” says Kurt, driving force behind the Jersey Boyz, also owner of Kurt’s Marine.

“The racer decal is strictly for race boats,” Kurt declares.

“If we find it on your truck, we'll launch the truck.”

Tough crowd, very tough crowd.

Design study for a new Jersey Boyz logo.

Found on Augie’s truck.

The current logo.

The new one looks better, but this one works better.

Gang leaders: Smitty of Smitty Marine, Augie Pensa, and Kurt Berger.

Jersey Boyz.

More Jersey Boyz.

Randy voices his opinion about the new race rules.

The most important part of the meeting.

GOOD JOB
 

any one know if RANDY had to sleep in the doghouse again???

I heard he was late for supper:D

Boyz in the hood
 

Great job, thanks for being part of the day, Also thanks to the teams for taking the time to be there. We have worked very hard over the past few months, to put together a great schedule, for the races, and I am glad to see the format for the P class was well accepted. There are a few others out there that dont really get the thanks, Bruce and Luki, two guys that are always there when you need them, and a driving force to race. Great inspiration to others. Can't leave out Mad Dog, always there to get everything out on the table. To all the other teams, getum ready Boyz you aint seen nuttin yet. Smitty

Thanks, guys. It was quite a day.

I have taken away an OPA membership (including book, sticker & keyring).

I have also taken away the impression that the OPA, and their military chapter, the Jersey Boyz, are amongst the best run and most professional organizations in the field. The OPA is ruled with a firm and steady hand.

I'm proud that I've been made a (very rookie) member.

Please post the results of the post-conference meeting that took place in the woods (see attached.)

Peconic,

Thanks for joining us..and for sharing the pics....hope to see you at our events this year...
