Once again OFF will be partnering with CRA's Fall thunder. Gerri Prusko and Bill John have requested a head count of attendees for this year's event. We expect it to be bigger than ever, but last year they accomodated a bunch of OFF folks at the last minute and this was a bit of a problem in planning their social events. Please......PLEASE.... make your reservations for the socials in advance by going onto www.classicraceboatassoc.com and signing up. Yes there are fees but this is for meals, drinks, etc....and also allows us to know who will be bringing boats for display and or running on the race course. Please be aware that this is an APBA sanctioned event and includes insurance, on site ambulances, and fire equipment....
Thanks in advance for your cooperation. We look forward to a GREAT time!
Steve Sirois....Please forward this message via the OFF email addresses.

10-16-2014 07:30 PMIn the Merc ad it shows John and O'Dell, did they win the Mississippi Marathon when it used to run or was it just they were in a boat similar to the winner?
That had to be one heck of a crazy race........Getting bad advice is unfortunate, taking bad advice is a Serious matter!!

I know they won the Around Long Island marathon in the famous "Fast Will Last" boat.....not sure, but I think the Mississippi race was before the Merc 1000's came out. I believe both men ran that race in separate Powecats with Merc 800's.

10-23-2014 08:20 AMIs that race something that could even be run in today's world? 20 boats racing up the Mississippi for over 1000 miles? The stories are cool to read.....

10-24-2014 09:50 AMAhhhh, there appears to be a bit of truth in that statement......
I know of some insurance policies which have the exclusion for participating in any organized event now, not just a race exclusion or poker run exclusion. So it excludes any fun run etc with the new wording.Getting bad advice is unfortunate, taking bad advice is a Serious matter!!
