| "International Cup Regatta" June 6-7, 2009 Elizabeth City, North Carolina |
| When the International Cup Regatta hit the water in Elizabeth City, N.C., in 1954, George Byers Jr., of Columbus, Ohio, set a world record when he barreled across the Pasquotank River at 115.26 miles per hour in a time trial. “The boats have gotten bigger and faster, but it’s still the same family-friendly sport,” said chairperson of this year’s Cup. “Spectators will still gather by the water’s edge to watch the race. That part hasn’t changed.” |
