Don't forget.... Avail yourself of the early bird registration fee structure by registering and PAYING before March 15th. It looks like things are shaping up nicely with quite a number of returning and new participants.
Quality boatyard time is just around the corner which means your 2016 offshore racing isn't far off either. Remember, a clean bottom is a fast bottom!
Best regards,
Joe Doris Chair, Lake Ontario Offshore Racing
