With rising & rough waters in Ocean City, Maryland, from the threat of Hurricane Matthew already in effect, OPA Racing must announce the cancellation of the Ocean City Grand Prix. Matthew, currently a Category 4 (major) hurricane in the Caribbean, is expected to take a northward turn this weekend, which will bring the storm along the Atlantic coast of the United States next week. How significant the impact is to be along the Atlantic Seaboard will depend on Matthew's strength and proximity to the coast.
At this time it cannot be predicted as to how exactly this will affect the water and shoreline in Ocean City for a safe race. OPA also cannot guarantee that there will be ample resources on the water to conduct a safe race. We felt the need to cancel this race at this time so that those attending the race will not lose their deposit(s) on their hotel reservations.
At this time we would like to thank all those involved in their effort in trying to produce the race in Ocean City.
The OPA Nationals will now be held in conjunction with the OPA Worlds in Englewood Beach, Florida at the Englewood Beach Waterfest!
The National Championship race will be held on Saturday, November 19th. This race will be the finale of the OPA National Race Series and determine the National Champion in each class.
The World Championships will be a culmination of points from the race on Saturday, November 19th and conclude on Sunday, November 20th. Both days of racing will be full length races with full points awarded for each day.
