What classifies the team as a "Rookie" Team??
*New to OPA in 2012?
*Less than 5 races under their belt in 2 years?
*Just a group of guys scraping there $ together to go and do what they love?
*Not independantly wealthy?
Just asking.....

Its great to read about a thriving org that thinks to keep and develop additional boats and racers. Smitty and the entire OPA management have always been great to our needs when we had the opportunity to race, and we where always on a budget. If you can do much of the handy work yourself, and research costs, you will always save. Ed stated it best that the fun and enjoyment factor is priceless, and the competition is awesome. The friendships are lifelong and one of a kind. Not to mention, the learning that one can achieve is also great!
Keep up the strong work OPA.
