    I drove over to watch the race and take a few photos. I decided to go over and shoot from the Canadian side because of how close we got to the wall a few times when I was racing with Simmons. Well, it was a nice spot to watch from. Broadco actually soaked the crowd during the race when he got pushed out a bit too wide.

    Some Class 6 to start. 10 boats, one course, narrow north turn....

    Then this guy delayed the start of the second race for about 40 minutes. He came down river, turned the boat around pointing upstream, and backed into the gas dock on the Canadian side....
