I am so glad I never felt intimidated when I started Poker Running... Who knows what I would be doing today had I been.

I know I showed up to New York Hudson run 2 years in a row and finished.

I went to my 1st run with the NJPPC with this boat too and was never so welcomed. The guys with the BIG BOATS never knocked me for having a 13 footer. Maybe because some of them watched me leave Barnegat Inlet while others turned around.

Eventually I stepped up to a 28 footer with twin outboards that had enough juice in them to keep up with the crowd...

NJPPC is not about who is the fastest or whose got the largest, it is about having a great time enjoying the company and the sport of recreational boating..
