An idea for the Navy….

One of the problems we sometimes have around here is the Navy wanting to do sonar testing off the west side, which is really not a good idea for marine mammals. So, I was thinking about it – they need something else to do…so why not submarine races?

We already have the Shaw Island Classic (where people in sailboats race around Shaw) and the Marathon (where people on foot race around the island) and the Loop Run next weekend (where people run around Pear Point Loop)… you see, islanders really like races. It’s a natural.

Think about it.

  1. This reminded me of a DJ we used to have in NYC, Murray the K. He always talked about going out and watching the “submarine races”.
