From what I was told....It was determined by P1 rules that each canopy must be open due to when boat is being flipped..it is easier for driver and trottleman to escape from the boat.

It was ok, nothing great. I personally like looking at the boats up close and checking out the rigging, motors and pit area. But thats just me. - But Overall it was good.
