The Mount Washington sold rides for the races. They anchored, or at least stayed stationary, in the middle of the Broads so the race happened all around them. Great seats!

The races were well attended by boaters. It really is too bad there is not a way to monetize them so that there is sufficient income to cover the cost. It would be great to see them come back.

We enjoyed the races and would love to see them come back too. I remember we were disappointed when they announced they lost their sponsors. And I know we discussed it before but remember the accident at the last turn toward Wolfeboro when they flew out of the boat? That was scary but all was ok.
