Any activities in the Pacific Northwest?
Just curious as to how many performance boaters there are in my neck-of-the-woods? We live on Fox Island in the Puget Sound area about 30 miles south of Seattle. My wife and I were wondering if there were any clubs or groups that had organized activities.

I was just curious if there was a group that got together for some runs or social gatherings. All boaters in the area are very friendly it's just a little hard to explain to "regular" boaters that you have a boat that cruises 10-20 m.p.h. beyond their top speeds... They kind of give you that puzzling "Why?" look.

There are a few of us north of you......
We have a couple of Poker Runs over the summer, Sidney, Lake Cowichan, Harrison Hotsprings.......plus there are almost always some of us on the waters throughout the Gulf Islands........I realize it is a little distance to travel, but well worth it.....

I live in Kirkland and just picked up a 22' Powerquest. Juanita bay on Lake WA holds alot of "go Fast" type boats on the weekends. Also Chelan also has tons of boats that gets together on weekends. You can usally find them in the canal in Chelan tied up together.
