Huron, Ohio (August 4, 2010) – Lake Erie Boat Week’s “Fastest Boat on Lake Erie”
Competition has changed dates for 2010, and will now be a two day extravaganza contested
off of the pristine shores of Lake Erie on the weekend of September 11-12, 2010.  

Moving from Thursday, September 9, 2010, to the headlining weekend dates provides a high-
profile platform for amateur “go-fast” boaters to show off their vessels in front of one of the
largest event audiences in the region.  

The APR Events Group / APR Powerboat Superleague portion of the Lake Erie Boat Week
event, originally scheduled for September 11-12, 2010, has been cancelled for 2010.  

Janie Vogel, Event Director for Lake Erie Boat Week, is quite optimistic about the current
promotional lineup for this event, as well as the future of this new boating festival.

“This is still going to be a fantastic event for people of all ages,” Vogel said.  “We’ll kick off
the week with the Nationwide Insurance Powerboat Regatta, designed to bring people into
the community and then send them out into the area to enjoy everything the Lake Erie
Shores and Islands region has to offer!  Then the “Fastest Boat on Lake Erie” Competition
boats will put on a huge show for anyone who comes to the shores of Huron to watch!  I’ve
designed a lot of other promotional opportunities and entertainment to keep people happy
every day of the event.  We’ve got a great lineup of bands and other entertainment options –
both on land and water - to offer the community.  The park and surrounding areas will be
filled with vendors offering great food and fun merchandise, too.  Whether you are a boater,
enjoy the water, or just want to spend an afternoon in a beautiful park, Lake Erie Boat Week
will have something to keep you entertained every hour of the day!  I can’t wait to build
toward many more successful years in Huron.

Bay Village, Ohio (August 12, 2010) – Janie Vogel, Event Creator and Director of the Lake
Erie Boat Week event, has entered into an agreement with the Offshore Powerboat
Association (OPA), an internationally recognized professional offshore powerboat racing
sanctioning body, to support and sanction Lake Erie Boat Week’s “Fastest Boat on Lake
Erie” Competition, to be held September 11-12, 2010, as part of a six-day event.

Lake Erie Boat Week is a national boating festival to be held September 7-12, 2010,
headquartered at the Huron (OH) Boat Basin, with activities to be held on Lake Erie and the
Huron River.

The “Fastest Boat on Lake Erie” Competition event for powerboats will take place
Saturday and Sunday, September 11-12, 2010.  There will be a starting and ending marks
on Lake Erie, and all boats will have their speed measured by radar gun (and/or GPS) after
a stretch of water to get up to speed.  The boat racing lane will be a single lane, running
from east to west on Lake Erie – all within easy view of the public off of the Huron Boat
Basin pier and in front of Nickel Plate Beach, allowing many viewing areas throughout the
afternoon.  Boats will be divided into classes based on the boat’s top speed.  They will get
practice runs (single boat runs) on Saturday, and will draw for their spots to take the shot
at the title for their class on Sunday.  The boat with the fastest speed will be named the
“Fastest Boat on Lake Erie” for each class, and own the bragging rights to that title for the
following year.

(open to all boats no matter if a class to fit that boat entry is listed – please inquire), entry
forms and general rules, or the Lake Erie Boat Week event, please visit the official event
