Now on to the Promotion side….(Jake, maybe you can help out here). Last year at the Alter Cup, (Long Beach, CA) Truly a great event, great venue, and good weather. However, at the same time of the race, the Long Beach YC was also holding the Congressional Cup, right of the end of the pier!!! Grandstands, Leaderboad, all within 50 yards of the pier.

Now, to a passerby, it was exciting racing….but way off in the background…Hobie tigers are flying hulls, flying chutes, sea spray, hailing!!! Racing at its finest. Why not within easy view of the public? That is what needs to be done more. I think any beach cat racing has got to be more exciting to watch than some Catalina 25’s match racing??
