Stockholm GP 2013 Erik Stark vs Jonas Andersson..??

6 May, 2013 Published by: Lars Strom

Att KMK : R med Anders Bjurman i spetsen nu har fått igång Internationella tävlingar på Riddarfjärden igen är ju ett jättelyft för Svensk båtracing.

I sommar blir det åter F2 racing och med lite tur kanske KMK : R ihop med F1 promotorn får till ett UIM F1 race 2014.??

Vi kan alla hoppas och i väntan återigen njuta av lite drag under galoscherna 14-15 Juni 2013.

Ser ut att bli en hel del nya ekipge i F2 klassen.

Kan Erik Stark vinna igen eller kommer F1 stjärnan Jonas Andersson att visa alla var skåpet skall stå i F2 serien.??

This picture is funny..!!

6 May, 2013 Published by: Lars Strom

I was going through all my old boxes of boat racing trophy´s and found this one.

Very special..!!
It is a Russian silver challenge trophy from the last Duvnäsviken Two Hour race in Stockholm late 1976.

This race was my home town boat race and I was twice the overall winner.

Problems with the local permits stopped the future two hour race.

There is lots of Russian names on this close to 100 year old trophy..
I took it to the marina at Lake of the Ozarks and showed my friend Dr. Bob from Nebraska.

Well..I maybe did brag a bit and Dr. Bob told me to kiss the trophy when he took a “Bjorn Borg style picture”..

There is only one trophy like this in the world..and I am not going to give it up..

Now..to the fun part..Dr. Bob then renamed the trophy and said it look like a urn for my ashes..!!
