The BBC2025 IS BACK

The BBC2025 is back and open for registration. Anyone in the NCC that want's to switch to the BBC should contact me by email and I will do the switch. It is still possible that this event along with the NCC could be cancelled, But I love the NCC and BBC so much, that I am willing to give it a shot ...

BBC2025 Cancelled

Sorry, but I had to cancel the BBC2025 due to lack of interest. The two challengers signed up for the BBC have been moved to the NCC. Even with that move, we only have five signed up for the NCC2025. I may have to cancel that event as well.

Very depressing after the great EC2025 and UM2025.

Use of Regular Boat Trailer - Access to Beach

Recently a Challenger asked if he could use a hand pulled dolly to pull his boat and trailer from the parking lot to the beach. Keep in mind this is a regular trailer used on the road. It will double (give or take) the weight of the boat being pulled to the beach, and it has regular road tires. What ...

Re: Minimum Lifejacket Requirements

No, the PLB does not have to be in a pocket. However, a pocket gives a small amount of protection to the PLB. But that is up to you.

The PLB must be attached with a lanyard.

Re: No overnight RV Boat ramp parking!

That is correct. However, you might be able to get a campsite. They are probably full now, but you could give it a try. You can park your car with or without a trailer while boating/camping/WaterTribing overnight for several nights. But you have to pay for as many days as you need. I have an annual ...

Minimum Lifejacket Requirements

The first step in the Event Registration process is your Lifejacket Inspection. Every year we have lots of Challengers who don't get it right. If this is your first time, i really need to checkout this PDF:
