Hello Racers,

I'm developing the idea for two annual races in Florida that would be outside of the typical northern race season. I'm trying to coax down some competition from the north so I don't want to interfere with your regular race schedule, hockey or the like. Once the lakes start to freeze or begin to thaw, you could hop on down to your friends in Panama City Beach for a weekend of warm(er) water racing. Even if there's not a snowball's chance in hell you could make it, I'd like to hear your thoughts.

Cracker Bay Long Hauler
700+ mile race along the eastern coast of Florida
5 days, Trans Agulhas style
Pensacola departure Oct 8 weekend (MLK Holiday weekend)
Finish in Key West 5 days later

BayLoosa Challenge and Regatta
Day 1: BL Challenge - 130 mile loop
Panama City Beach to Destin (along the gulf beach) and back to Panama City Beach (via the bays/intercoastal)
Day 2: Typical surf racing short course
March 15th weekend

Water temps should be in the low 20's C (mid 70's F)

All the best,

Jim Keith

the best ThunderCat audience is at https://www.facebook.com/thundercatracingna/

It would be great to have a topo type race http://tomorc.org/ in the surf.

BayLoosa Challenge is the weekend of July 13. The Cracker Bay Long Hauler is getting a rain check because of Hurrican Michael damage.
