Mariner Too Wins Indoors...Notre Dame Takes the Pepsi Challenge.
 Outside,
the wind was howling and the temperatures were dropping. But the Casper-Prop
series raced in balmy temperatures as the first indoor regatta were held at
the Dossin Great Lakes Museum on Belle Isle in Detroit.
It
was Scott Dunn's Mariner Too that won the 2002 season opener (exhibition) by
outdistancing his Mom's boat, the Savair's Mist (trouble brewing at home, perhaps?)
- Hank Kosciuszko's Maverick was third followed by Brad' Dunn's Miss Timex and
Scott Dunn's Hawaii Kai III. Hank Kosciuszko's Gale V won the consolation race.
Highlights:
- Great
debuts by Mark Weber's Karelson Notre Dame (see the Pepsi Challenge
story), Nancy Spanich's Slo Mo V, Greg Bazydlo's U-4 Miss Bardahl and
Dave Guidon's U-64 Miss Vernors. All the new boats are VERY FAST.
- Lake Kosciuszko
was perfect throughout the day...not letting a single drop of water
hit the carpeted floor at the Dossin. The sump pump emptied the lake
in record time. Many, many thanks to event coordinator extrordinaire
Kathy Shuler, George Schulz for setting up the lake (and the new, cool
leveling bars) and the staff at the Dossin Museum!
- New boats
Notre Dame, Slo Mo V, Miss Vernor's and the U-4 Miss Bardahl ALL scored
heat victores on the day.
- The Savair's
Mist was very strong all day, with four heat wins, one second and one
third...giving it the points winner for the day. Owner Ellen Dunn must
have borrowed the "relaxed style of ownership" technique from
Laura Kosciuszko!
- The "Surprise
Boat of the Day" was Kathy Shuler's Miss Madison (affectionately
called "Madison 2" by those close to the sport). The boat
"came to life" and finished FIRST in Heat 2A!
- The Thunderbolt
decided to sport a new sub-mariner style of racing as it dug the nose
in several times around the course.
- Many musuem
visitors stopped by to watch (and try to figure out WHY several adults
were watching plastic boats putt-putt around a race course)
- The Miss
Thriftway may relinquish her "Bad Girl" crown to Mark Weber's
new Notre Dame. Details at the Pepsi Challenge Story.
Both races held
at the Dossin were exhibition races...just a pre-season tune-up. We are
thinking about actually creating a schedule, soon!! Stay tuned for details.
