    Any word on the status of the Viking/Ocean Showdown

    I was planning out my tournament schedule for 2009 and saw the Viking/Ocean Showdown. I was curious if anyone heard any word yet, if they are still planning on having the showdown?

    I have few friends still employed there and were given notices of a plant shutdown in April. This is scheduled to be the 20th anniversary for the tournament and would be a shame if they didn't have it.

    According to the website it is scheduled for July 8-12 this year. I have not heard any rumors of it being canceled.

    I fished with Mike BRady last weekend he said they are cutting back but never mentioned a shut down on Vikings end anyway.

    I saw it was still posted but I was just curious if things had changed. Lets all hope that the Miami boat show is a hit for our local boat builders, I dont wanna see my friends lose their jobs. The letter I read was talking about that if things didnt pick up soon the last day was in April.

    Ocean/Viking Tournament 100% On !!!!!!!!!!!

    Spoke to Bob Glover today at SJ Marian/Canyon Club and the Ocean/Viking showdown is 100% a GO. There hasn't even been discussion about the possibility of cancel. Ocean & Viking sales have nothing or very little to do with the tournament and many of the sponsors are venders of products used in building these two boats. Plus this tournament is also in a way a boat show for Ocean and Viking to show off the new models for the year to everyone in the Ocean/Viking Family. So if you own either one of these fine boats, make plans to be in Cape May the middle of July....See you there, and now Whitey has some help for team ocean.
