Barnegat Offshore Race
 

Here we go... few more weeks to get all that hardware back in the Bilges. I dont know about anyone else, but our stuff is in pieces. We'll be there guns a blazin. Really excited about the home town race kicking off the first of many this season. So whozs going?
And then LOTO is ramped up and ready for the OPA teams. Every boat that shows will be handed 1000.00 US Dollars to help offset the expense of travel. I know of a number of boats that are making the trip. If you are going please post here.
Atlantic City, is coming along nicely, as well as the Manasquan Race. Fall River Mass. first time event, deposit has been recieved, Coast Guard is on board. All is good to go. The Michigan Races are as usual ready to go. I would start booking rooms up there as soon as possible. After 13 years of working together with Mikey and the CBPBA, we have raced in Cambridge, then Solomons. It has become more and more difficult to finance the races in those areas. So we have put together a group to put on a kick ass national Championship in Ocean City Maryland. CBPBA will handle the event as usual, Saris Racing Engines, is the Prize Purse sponsor of the event. Phil Houck aka Bull On The Beach. is picking up the tab for the Crane, pit area, Trophies, and of course Food. Wild Bill Purnell is going to keep his Hotel open a week longer, and is providing all the staff lodging, and is holding all the rooms for the race teams, so call the Atlantic Hotel now and start booking. Wazzup Motorsports, will be sponsoring the insurance, Helicopter, and the staff expenses.and transport. This has been a team effort and I want to thank, Jason and Johhny Saris, Phil Houck, Wild Bill Purnell, Mikey and the CBPBA. Finally we have a World Championship in the WARM climate of Florida. Englewood Florida is working on a two week Waterfest event, second to none. There is a 50K prize purse there, that we will disscuss with the teams on how to distribute. Prize/Travel. which ever gets the teams there. So there it is. Short and sweet nothing to it. Any questions fire away. Smitty

Typhoon is booked for LOTO

Kickass season, cant wait see everyone soon!

Smith Brothers/CRC 611 in for entire season

Loto Question?

Hey Smitty is the $1000.00 going to be it? or will there also be a purse for each class?

Should pay down as well, they are advertising the heck out of the large purse, Then of course the "run what you brung" race money.

Cisco "No bullies!" Will be at Seaside Heights! Dropping freshened engine into hull this weekend.

The 700 Will not make SeaSide Heights, but will start the season at our hometown race here in LOTO.

TYPHOON 529 is tested and ready for the race along with the SVL.

Thanks to everyone ahead of time for all your support!

We are here in Seaside and will leave from here for LOTO...

nice shots tim ,,little bumpy in the bay NICE

Just took a roller over bow of the boat I am on. Floated all my gear boxes to the back of the boat... 😱🏁

that sucks hope your alright

Hey Tim, How did the race go. Was gonna go out but I drove up from Fla yesterday and spent a full 17 hrs in the car. Was brutal. Didn't wake up in time. Seemed very rough. Was just curious. Thanx.

Race went well. It got a bit bumpy as was expected when the wind blows from the south. The bay was building all day.

All is ok and to my knowledge no mishaps.

I was anchored right off turn 2. Wind was a steady 15 out of the SSW, had some nice rollers out there. Thankfully the rain held off. Very cool to see the races back in the Bay again.

Yes a few Angels watched over us to keep the rain away.
We all miss you Reese and Scotty A!

No live stream ?how about results!

Results are my site

Due to the location of this race I don't believe LiveStream would have been possible.
The only location viewable by land is not allowed to host boating events per its liquor license.
Therefore the Waters Edge had no envolvement with the race.

GREAT shots Tim!

More to come Johnny. Just a lot on my plate at the moment. Over 6,300 images at last week's Road Bikes Event in Pittsburgh, Pa and is just about finished. Then I can get on with the boat race photos...
