Weather doesn't look great for Saturday, do they still run this in the rain?

I'm four miles from Wolfeboro Bay, but can hear the goings-on.

Before the first rain, there were some high-revving outboards racing. Then it got quiet.

Racing started back up around lunch time.

In front of our place, adult tubers don't seem to mind the cloudy weather and cool temperatures.

I was disappointed to find out that this was NOT a 2 day event !!

Went over early Sunday morning & nothing !

It was a two day event. Check your first post. It was Friday 9/13 and Saturday 9/14. Sorry you missed it.

We were over in Wolfeboro Bay at around 10:30a and there was nothing set up looking remotely like a race ……….. no boats, no course set up, no MP, no boats milling around .. NADA .. so we left

As the placard I posted said "9-5pm".

Phantom, as chase said, it was a two day race but NOT Sunday. It was Friday and Saturday.
