GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

Keep an eye on the board this week for all the information regarding the race in Cape Cod. The Boston crew promises a great event.

All you OPA guys out there, we are currently talking with Kurt to put things together to join you in Camden in October. Hope to see you in Cape Cod.

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

Andrew, any chance the OSS boats will be attending this race with GLSCS?

Is the race course near the beach or way out in the ocean again?

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

Andy,
Sent you a couple of e-mails a while back. Just checking to see if you got em.

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

I heard the Cape race was not happening!! Whats the real story???

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

Tom, Andrew would be the one that would know if it's on or off. Sounds like it's on to me.

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

There isn't lot of water on the outer cape, its nerve racking as hell how shallow it is. What was it like last time for the spectator fleet, can you get pretty close?

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

I'm working on answering all your questions. We are in contact with the race producer. I will try to post a copy of the race corse tonight. It's a go will be a great event.

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

second to last silver club race had 16 boats i believe 13 boats in Grand Haven (Two that raced one time this year)

how many boats do you expect in the cape ?

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

It should be a real exciting race if "The Jersey Boyz" make a showing!!

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

We are expecting a great turn out for this race. Our Series Champions will be anounced and the $20,000.00 Hi point fund will be distributed to the racers at the awards presentation.

To answer a couple additional questions from what we gather from Patti Loyd the race course will be about 3/4 of a mile offshore to clear the shallow water issues. We are already talking about nexts years event and a possible new location. More to come.

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

How about trying Lake Winnipesaukee (NH)? We haven't had a race in a while.

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

There are a few sights on the table. We'll see what pans out.

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

Andrew- do you know or have a picture of the course in the cape?

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

Hope to have something by the end of the week.

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

Talked with Kurt from OPA last night. They will also be posting all race information (Cape Cod) on their web-site as well. We (GLSCS Boats) will try to paticipate in the Cambridge race the week after Cape Cod along with the Championship Race in Camden. We are discussing bringing in our Television Show (aired on The Outdoor Channel) in the cover the Championship race.

Re: GLSCS in Cape Cod September 17-19
 

Please send me the particulars, such as times, dates, locations and phone numbers and I'll send it out to 1000 subscribers of our email list.
