There’s more to attending the annual IJSBA World Finals in Lake Havasu City, Arizona than merely racing (although that’s the major reason why to be there). It is, for all intents and purposes, the single-largest gathering of personal watercraft enthusiasts in the world, and brings out thousands of spectators and hundreds upon hundreds of racers to the Crazy Horse Resort on the shores of the most famous lake in PWC history.
To hammer down yet another reason to go, Sea-Doo is rolling out the red carpet in many more ways than just filling the field with top notch racers: in addition to competitors like Dustin Farthing, Erminio Iantosca, Gyorgy Kasza and Mohammed Burbayea tearing up the buoy course (as well as offering a very cool – and free – autograph signing session), Sea-Doo will also host its sixth annual Ultimate Owners Ride, as well as offer demo rides of the all-new Spark TRIXX, and cool Beach Party Zone for all to enjoy.
Here’s the original release:
