Well, I'll bump this up to everybody's attention just once more. No discussion at all so I have to figure few here if any want to participate in electric boat competitions. If there is interest but just not in these two events I would like to hear what would be appealing IE: different location, different dates, mulitple distance choices...whatever.
In any case, everyone is welcome to come to St. Michaels, MD this Friday to catch the Wye Isalnd Challenge and keep April 15, 2011 in mind for the Florida event.
Thanks, Tom
