Very cool. Those guys are alright. One of my favorite shows. Two totally different kinds of seamanship cross-promoting. I like it. :D

I had Keith on the Apache at Sarasota and he is a great guy. Also have taken the Hillstands out a few times and they are also a great bunch of people.

They almost looked further offshore at a few points at the end than "offshore" racing does... :ack2:

Time Bandit Offshore Racing will make their official debut in Sarasota. The boat is driven by Travis Lofland of Deadliest Catch F/V Wizard and Bob Marikowski. They have a 30' Phantom and will be racing Super Vee Lite. I have been working closely with Travis to make this happen and as most of you have done many times...we were down to the final hours of make it or break it and it's finally coming together just in time for Sarasota.

Sarasota is important since Travis was introduced to the offshore racing world two years ago when he was a special guest at the Suncoast Offshore Grand Prix. There he became friends with the AMF/Miss GEICO and JD Byrider Offshore Racing teams. Travis had the opportunity to go for a ride in the JD Byrider boat with throttle man, Mark Kowalski and has spent his off time from crab fishing laying the foundation to get into offshore racing. His relationship with the AMF/Miss GEICO team became a valuable resource and Scotty B finally realized he was serious and helped connect the dots. Capt. Hillstrand has also become involved with offshore racing through Miss GEICO and ran a speed record run with the team in December. Upon hearing that Travis would be racing, they formed what has become Time Bandit Racing for even bigger adventures on the water.

Travis would like me to give special thanks to the JD Byrider boys for creating the monster, George Auriemma Jr. from IMCO Racing, Scotty Begovich and those of you who have helped him along the way.
