2007 Boat Numbers

Attention Racers:  It is extremely important that racers run their earned APBA National Highpoints number on their boat for the 2007 race season. This program was put in place to reward racers from their accomplishments and also to help eliminate the number of three digit numbers to make scoring events easier. These numbers help show to spectators what your national ranking is so where your earned number with pride.

Exceptions to the Rule:

If a racer is at a race and another racer has his/her earned number on their watercraft, the person who has not earned that number will be asked to change their number to their earned number. We understand that in some cases multiple riders use a boat (i.e.: father and son) or race a boat in multiple class (i.e.: race in Stock and Limited). If that is the case then we will allow the rider that has not earned that number to add an "X" at the end of their number. If that is not the case you will be required to purchase new numbers and put the correct number on your watercraft.

If you finished first at the 2006 Nationals in Nashville a rider has earned the right to run his/her earned APBA number or a red #1 with a white background.

If a rider finished first at the 2006 World Finals then the rider has earned the right to run his/her earned APBA number or a white #1 with a black background.

If a racer moves up in skill level (i.e.: Novice to Expert) he/she must the choose a number from 101 to 999 and is not eligible to run an earned number from another class..
