With Covid and everything thing that came with it, we have been through a rough couple of years. But we’re about to get back out there on the water! We are auctioning off some cool memorabilia to help raise money to cover our expenses. We are planning to run at least four and maybe even five times this summer and nothing about these boats is cheap! If you think that it costs a lot to fill up your car with regular gas, imagine filling up an 80 gallon hydro tank with 114 octane racing fuel!

The auction will open at 8am Monday May 23^rd and will close at 8pm on Monday May 30^th. Please review the items and bid generously. Every dollar helps.

Holidays are a time for generoisity

As you plan your year-end giving, please consider donating to The Hydroplane & Raceboat Museum! The last two years have been challenging for everyone, especially a small non-profit that spent most of that two years closed by government mandate. EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS! You'd be surprised by what we can do with just a few dollars! Even if you cannot contribute at this time, we wish you all the joy and blessings the holidays can bring.
