Southern Maryland Boat Club Regatta July 30th 2017

The weather on Sunday was beautiful and sunny for the 2017 Southern Maryland Boat Club Summer Regatta. The day began with a mandatory driver and crew meeting, followed by Karen singing National Anthems.  Each boat was in a morning and afternoon demo run, with 2 parade laps and 5 laps to show off their skills.  There were no winners, since the purpose of the regatta was to have fun and show off your antique boat in a safe manner.   Food was provided and visitors could visit "the Pits" during lunch and after the race to meet the participants.  The club members had a blast!

Our boat was parked next to this one, which ran with the Switzer boats.  I liked the words on the side of the boat. " Get In, Sit Down, Shut Up & Hang On"

 Patrol boat to the rescue.  These guys were fairly busy.  Vintage boats engines are sometimes unreliable.

 I didn't know this guy's name, but he sure worked hard putting the boats in!
