U-13 at The Detroit Boat Show

Posted by admin | Filed under News

The U13 Spirit of Detroit (owned by David Bartush) represented the Unlimited Hydroplane sport at the Detroit Boat Show from February 13-21.  Along with the 2005 Gold Cup Champion was the Detroit River Regatta Association, the Miss USA-1 and an APBA driver training boat.  The booth was coordinated with the APBA, the Detroit River Regatta Association (event organization for the APBA Gold Cup Race in Detroit) and the Detroit Yacht Club.

The U13 Team is back and making plans for a successful and competitive 2010 season.  “We are preparing the boat and marketing for sponsors to support both the U13 Team and the race event in Detroit”, said Scott Allen, U13 Team Manager.

Dave Bartush added that, “We will be making some exciting announcements very soon regarding our new program, driver and team developments, but it is our new focus and energy in sponsor marketing and relations with Scott as Team Manager and Paul LaMarre as our Director of Marketing that adds a new element to our efforts”.

    It’s great to see you giving the true (and most impressive) history of your hull instead of trying to act like it’s brand new like so many of your competitors. I don’t see any reason why you can’t win some more races! Good luck.

    Just wondering which hull we’ll see racing in 2010 – the “old” U-13, the former U-2, or both?

    Best of luck, and can’t wait for the season to start!

    Steve,
    We will be racing the U13 Hull although plans are being made to modify the U2 which, when complete, could become our primary boat. Lots of work to do on it but, what the heck!
