Congrats Brett & Bruce! Your boat looked great at all times but especially nice while running full throttle around the course.

Congrats d-hlaw, St. Cloud was my first race also. I know exactly how you felt before the race. Crossing the line from fan to racer is a huge step but a Great one. Also the feeling of being out there is hard to describe
( you did well). The fact that you finished is an accomplishment . 89mph is extremely fast and takes lots of focus and communication to ensure safety. When the big boys go buy now thats another aw some story. Great luck , be safe. Jo

I would also like to add that the APBA officials were nothing but proffessional and helpful to all of us. They are eager to listen to the racer's needs and are trying very hard to repair whats been damaged. Hopefully, more of you will come out and support Marathon.
