Congratulations Dave.  Nice video. Fun to watch the vorticies of snow trail off behind your boat.
Has anyone seen results posted for the event?

The bob stay was causing the snow streams.  Might need to stiffen the plank up a bit as it bottoms out now in big wind.

Yep, even got to shake his hand.  He starts a good race and helped host a nice event.
