Is there ever a cloud in the sky here?

I'll upload to this album throughout the weekend. Enjoy

And the races both Sat and Sun will be on www.talkoffshore.com for your listening pleasure.

Thanks Ron!

Double On That Thanks, Ron. Please Try To Get A Few Good Shots Of Dave's "killer" Boat. Thanks, Sal

The street party last night was amazing. At least 5 times the size and number of people that would be in Key West. It looked like the whole town came out to see the boats.

The morning Poker run is done. 3 card stops done, two to go after lunch. Thanks to Bob Teague for giving me a lift.

Photos have been uploaded more to come tonight.

Good stuff, Ron
wish I could have made it. looking forward to Sunny Isles

Nice job BIG Daddy pics look great

This is an excellent Poker Run thats run in a safe and well organized manner. Hats off to Jim Nicholes and his crew for putting together an awesome event.

More photos have been uploaded. Thanks to Bob Teague for taking me on a 120mph run up and down the Colorado River to see the canyons and sights along the way.

The races start tommorow. It will be on local TV channel 45, live all day. POPRA is Saturday and OSS is Sunday.

photo 70 is on the $$$

So the weekend is over. My camera lens broke on Saturday afternoon while doing several hot laps in the pace boat. It was rough with white caps on the lake and the vibration screwed up my lens. It won't zoom, so I only too a few more photos.

The races went great on Saturday and Sunday other than having the local Sheriff cutting our turn bouys loose. Boy did they catch chit from the Coast Guard and local police for that bone head more. (the bouys where tied to the No Wake Markers in front of the Nautical Inn so that they'd stay together rather than float seperately. They each had independant anchors, they were just tied together to keep it safer for the racers. Guess the Sheriff didn't like something tied to the no wake bouys. The Coast Guard understood what we did and gave their consent earlier in the day.)

Other than a crash in turn one with Celerity and WHM it was a great weekend. The big news is that there's a new Sheriff in town. Jenny and Mark Dunbar won the Vee Lite race in only thier second start. Mark drives and Jenny is on the sticks.
At the awards, the other Vee Lite teams gave Jenny her own set of cerimonial balls. They recieved a standing ovation at the awards cerimony. It was awesome.

Once again, thanks to Jim Nicholes and Kevin Cooper for inviting OSS to join the party. And thanks to Celerity Investments for providing the $50,000 prize purse for the OSS teams. It wouldn't have happened without them.

Now it's onto the next race on June 20 - 22 in Sunny Isles Beach FL for the joint event with HORBA for the Don Aronow Memorial Offshore Race. Hopefully my camera will be fixed by them.

PS - I'll provide full coverage in Extreme Boats Magazine and since Powerboat, Hotboat, Performance Boats and Trucking Magazine were in attendance, I'm sure this event will be covered from every angle. God willing, this three way, three day event will happen again next year. HAVASU ROCKS!

dont worry about the photo chores in sunny isles, ill be there
