    Logan's Heroes

    Dive into the heart-pumping world of Class 6 offshore racing, where speed is only part of the story. As the roar of engines and spray of salt water fill the air, behind every boat is a team driven by more than trophies—they race for a purpose. Today, we step inside the cockpit of Logan’s Heroes, a legendary 24-foot Magnum, to explore a story that blends adrenaline with heartfelt mission. Driver Ron May and throttleman Steve Lapinta share the triumphs and struggles—highlighting how a small team can compete on the biggest stage, from grueling Key West races to dramatic Michigan City crashes. At the heart of it all is family—Christine, Logan’s loving mother, standing beside him every step of his journey. This isn’t just a race team… it’s a family team, united by strength, purpose, and unwavering support.

    Scott and MJ. Safe Cash Racing

    Most offshore racing stories are about speed — but the real test happens when the water gets mean. At just 15, MJ Stallcup is stepping into one of the sport’s most demanding classes, Class 7, where trust, discipline, and razor-sharp communication determine who makes it back to the dock. Out on the water, every wave, every decision, and every shift in speed matters — and MJ is learning those lessons from her stepfather, Scott Jobin, a seasoned throttle man, as they race together as a family team.
