An older shot of Pete Mitchell's Schiada. This was during a women's marathon ski race at Parker when a jet ski cut him off during the race. I had already crewed in the boat for the men's race earlier in the day.
Pete's gone, but not forgotten!

Classic pic there..
Nice Pic!!! Nice finger wave : )
Like I said,, a jet ski passed in front of him while he was pulling a skier at a high rate of speed during a race,, he couldn't get his flare gun out fast enough so that's all he had to "warn" the nice jet ski person.Quote:

The Council are now accepting new bids and will make a decision on location and dates as soon as possible.
After thinking for a year it was going to be America, I hope someone can step up soon and hopefully in Europe.

THESE ARE ONE OF THE BEST ROUGH WATER SKI RACE BOATS I HAVE EVER BEEN IN.
THINK HE MAKING 50FT BOATS AS WELL NOW
SEXY VID, EXPECTING JAMES BOND TO POP OUT AT ANY TIME.......
I thought I read something on Facebook that it was going to be in Spain
There was talk of Tenerife,
I like Tenerife but the logistics of getting boats there would make it very difficult. We would need to take a ferry from Portsmouth to Santander, drive the whole length of Spain and then another ferry from Cadiz to Tenerife!
Cardiff and Eguzon in France have been discussed many times but they are always considered to be a little too small. If you put the Yanks and Aussies in Cardiff Bay it would not be inconceivable to find four boats on the first lap doing the best part of 120mph, side by side into the tight turn at the city end!
The race organisers at Eguzon are very keen and they do seem to have plenty of sponsors. As always it might just come down to money. I heard they are already favourites to co-host the 2014 European Championships with Vichy.
After the 2010 Europeans, the Spanish at Arcos seemed very keen to have us back so perhaps two lake races there and two offshore at Cadiz?

Correct, Tenerife, Canary Islands, SpainQuote:
