Their last race was in `98 or `99. I have a `98 trophy plaque on my wall, that's how I know. There was a nasty incident with a flock of ducks when a gas 'rigger decided to go WAY wide on the course. The DNR, Kent County Sheriff's Dept and Animal Control were notified. I also heard that dwindling membership was another factor, there about only 3 active racers left in the Club, Scott VanSlooten, Keith O'Brien and some other guy who's name escapes me.
On my fishing pole, I use a Rebel top-water lure, some old tackle from my Bass tournament days.
I'm just waiting for someone to gripe about my boats! With all of the Sub-woofer amped cars cruising, the music Festivals every Summer weekend downtown and Harley's with open pipes leaving a nearby Bar, my boats are quiet!
