So that number has to be on my boat?
Thanks

 

[The Real Grim]

Yes but you can put it anywhere just as long as it's on the boat.

Racers

If by chance the City changes any rules or policies after October 1st you will be notified by email immediately.

We have held off posting COVID requirements in the hopes that state and local rules would get easier to work with.
At this point our city contact is sure we will still be under the existing rules come race time.
What that means is you must wear a face mask and maintain social distancing at all times, while in public, in Huntsville, Madison County, AL.
Restaurants and bars will be at less than 50% capacity with limited menus. There can be no congregating in groups of more than 10.
In your package you will receive a waiver that states you understand this and will comply or you must leave the race site.
To the racers that have asked “can we guarantee you won’t get sick”. No we can’t!
To the racers that have said you can’t wear a mask, we understand and it is NOT fun especially in the heat, we will miss you, and will refund your entry fees when you contact us.

Is there any cutoffs on entries for boats or people?

Hi Everyone, if you would like to sponsor a class for the NAMBA Nats Please go on the website www.hmba5nambanats.com and select your class from the ENTRY/SHOPPING CART page. I will then put you on the sponsor page and let everyone know you have taken that class. It has to be PAID FOR before I can remove the class from THE SHOPPING CART so it is NOT AVAILABLE anymore.
Thank you, Kim

Hello Kim and Mark...been a long time! Of course I want to know how you and Mark are these days...
I got divorced, remarried and had 2 kids which are now 24 & 18. Time flew and my boating went on a high shelf.
Darn , getting older isn't for the weak ones. I still remember the happy racing/friend times we had. Seems that early comradery no longer exists. Still have a few old friends but they are disappearing!
I spend most of my time on my sign business and my wife has a mobile loan doc signing notary business. Still have a few boats but too much work to run them.
I see you and Mark moved to "S America"...I've never been in that area.Hopefully it is working out well for you.
OK...I don't wish to sponsor but do want only to say hello. I think I'll go to Legg Lake and look for ghosts...maybe some I still know.
Your friend of olde,
Don Donikowski

NAMBA NATS RACERS,
Unfortunately, the world is a much different place than it was when HMBA agreed to host the 2020 NAMBA Nationals.

We regret to inform everyone that a number of things out of our control have finally exceeded what we can control. After many sleepless nights and a meeting to look at and discuss all our options; the vote today was to cancel our 2020 NAMBA Nationals. We appreciate everyone that supported our effort and we certainly appreciate those who volunteered to help.

SPECIAL THANKS to Kim1 Grim for the AWESOME website she created and her tireless work. Please send her your thanks.
Your funds will be returned as soon as possible.

Rick Grim
President HMBA
