When I was growing up in Bermuda in the late 60’s early 70’s, they raced back and forth in the Ferry Reach area. Really cool they do it this now.

They need to go around at least 4 times to make it a real race.. one time is a waste of time

Where’s the buoys that are supposed to be off Bay and Ferry….what the committee forgot?

Every year it’s the same thing with those pleasure boats just outside the pylons. 🤦🏾♂️
@lavinceuncgrillzellis87614 ай бұрын
@@beefy88bullsI know you remember, and I hate to say this, the former committee used to have bouys outside plyons, just off Coney Island on Bay side and on Ferry it was just off the Tower....I bet when you look at any RDI before 2019 you'll see said bouys. The same bouys that they used when circuit racing from Ferry to Off Mid Atlantic...I guess now it's just channel markers

Respect for another year of RDI… too bad you didn’t get any of the junior class, besides what you see in the background while you’re walking around the pits. Got to promote our youths.

I used to watch the round de Island race bck in the 70's and im amazed at how much the boats have changed. They look really good and really fast. Although I don't live on the island anymore I'm really glad you made a video of the race. Thank you for that.

Wah gwan....do you have any footage from the Banana boat days....like Royal Knight...or days of Tropicana, Vision Video, the tunnels anything from the 80s. I emailed ZBM trying to find out if they had any of the footage they covered from Round Di Island but the reply was no. They got rid of the videos. I think it would be sweet to do a montage or DVD of all Bermuda Offshore racing in decades, as what I was thinking of doing.

Great video. Reminds me of the old days. We used to sit in the back of Dad's Morris wagon down Ferry Reach watching races back in the 70's. Been a racehead ever since. Sweet two strokes.
