[Electric Boats] The Wye Island Marathon

 

The 9th annual Wye Island Marathon took place on Friday October 2d, 2009. It was a bit breezy, and various minor mishaps cut the finishing competitors to only two. Jay Bliss's Elektra, with a Prius battery pack edged out Jim Campbell's perennial competitor E-Canoe for the win.
The event got some online press in Popular Mechanics. Although the article is fun reading, it makes the even sound a bit more challenging than it is. Any competent production boat can do the course in comfort and style.
