SBI in Marathon
 
Was told there were 14-16 boats there and the big race is between the SV class with 5 entry's. Tear it up guys.

Yep, 13 started was about right...
Quite the turnout for SBI... NOT...


PS: Doesn't "racing" imply competition? aka, competing against someone else...

Ben,

Cincinnati had 41 entries this weekend. Things went great, only a couple of minor hitches after the river came up a couple of feet on Saturday night....the crane crew got their feet wet getting to the crane.

KenD,
Thanks for the update. Congrats to Chris Reindl on what sounds like a great race, and to say nothing about it being a 1st time event... Way to go, now go show SBI how to do a race. Hell Chris alone with the bat boats, has almost as many boats as SBI had to put on its race.

ben@srp,why don't you start your own body to sea how you do? i'm sure there's other people in your type of business that has more sales than you. everybody floats diffrent boats,you wouldn't like to be kicked either when you're down.

Ben@SRP 06-16-2003 04:05 PM

Why do so many people get so bent out of shape over the whole SBI thing? We all have our own "opinions" and they all stink. No biggie... Can't we all just get along???
I simply voiced my OWN opinion on what I saw at an SBI race. And for the record, I'm SURE there are a lot of people who sell more than me, and they do voice it too, and it really doesn't bother me either.

It's all good, I'm not trying kick anybody while they are down or up for that matter.

Ken,

We had 42 boats sir... LOL

Thank you to all the teams that showed up in the pouring rain and river condititions... And how about them fans. Judging from beer sales we had over 20,000 for the 3 days.

Special thanks to Rob and Terrah for all their help - as well as the entire GLSCS Staff.

Chris,
It was our first GLSCS race and we thought you did an awesome job expecially under some adverse weather conditions. 42 boats is very impressive. Outer 42 I don't want to start my own bod but you have to admit that 19 boat is pretty bad. The funny thing is I don't think Jon C cares.
Typhon have you got paid for SBI worlds yet or are you still waiting.
Oh yeah in Cinci we got our check two hours after the race at the awards banquet which almost all the teams forwarded to the Jack Stoerrle Memorial Fund for his family.
