And I remember all of them! Remember all the boats lining up inside the Inlet and flying out. Long time ago. Me and Val used to help set up for the awards party at East Dover Marina in Toms River after the race and after The Day On The Bay which is now Shore Dreams For Kids. If we didn't help we weren't allowed to go to the race. Imagine someone telling me and Val we can't do something!!!!!Well it was our Fathers who would have Kicked Our A$$ for the next month.

No Augie....You the Man! With as great a time that we had, and the unbelievable brotherhood in the OPA, Looks like our time has come to Hang it back up. Unfortunately due to the economy which has forced us to Go out of Buisness and lack of funds, we will not be able to continue our racing Venture. Thank you for the great times, and for Managing an orginization that defines what the true meaning to Offshore Racing is all about.......FUN! It is with great despair that I must admit, that without major sponsorship I do not find it possible to continue. Thank you again for everything, and good luck this season!


Sincerely,

Jr.
