Have you seen the fabulous video from the Marblehead Nationals, brought to us by our Commodore (!). It does a super job of outlining the sport’s attractiveness to newcomers!!
Take a look !! Just released on the excellent MYA Video Channel….!!
For some time we have been experimenting with GPS Racing Marks. It’s early days for this type of technology. I suppose we feel it is promising, but not yet perfected.
Out of the blue, this video below has come up on YouTube. It’s a whole different way of looking at the same challenge. I suspect because of our very deep water (80 feet – no weed!) that it cannot work for us, but for loads of shallow water lake settings it could be a great answer.
Basically, it is a self propelled radio controlled buoy that drops and manages its own anchor. Clever.
Take a look and see what you think.
Another great little interview from the North American IOM Championship…. this time with legendary designer Bruce Farr !!
