The Vintage Race Boats

are returning to Detroit !!!

Welcome to the official "Vintage Participants" Webpage.

The past will come alive this summer when the vintage race boats of bygone eras return to Detroit to participate in a special Vintage Race Boat Program. The Vintage boats will be on display all weekend, and will run demonstration laps on the historic Detroit Gold Cup race course.

Vintage Boats on the "Intent List"

 for the Detroit APBA Gold Cup - 2005

Please be aware that because of space limitations, this is an "invitational" APBA vintage event. So if you want to participate, please send an email "letter of intent" to Alan Radue and we will post your entry on this Webpage. If we do not know you are interested in participating by being on the ‘Intent List’ there is a very good chance you will not be invited.  Please let us know your intentions as soon as possible. The planning committee will then be able to plan the vintage heats, select the boats that best fit the program, and will then send the actual invitation packets out in the Spring. Once the invitations are accepted and returned, we will post the final program of vintage boats. So please email your "letter of intent" - ASAP ???!!!

Total boat count on the Intent List = 47
